Installing Three-Piece Crown Molding: Rail Trim Creates a Foundation for the Crown Molding

Rail Trim Creates a Foundation for the Crown Molding Fastening crown molding directly to walls can be a headache, but well-fastened rail trim makes nailing the crown fool-proof. Use construction adhesive on all rail—even where you can nail into studs and ceiling joists. That way, you can use just enough nails to hold the trim in place until the adhesive sets, and you’ll have fewer nail holes to fill. Apply the adhesive lightly so the excess doesn’t squeeze out and make a mess. Miter the ceiling rails at both inside and outside corners. The corners of a room usually aren’t perfectly square, so you’ll have to use test pieces to find the exact angle for each corner (Photo 3). The crown molding tips and techniques shown in the rest of this article will help you install the wall rails. The wall rails are mitered at outside corners and coped at inside corners. Coping the wall rails is just like coping the crown (Photo 11) except that you stand the trim upright against the saw’s fence when you make the 45-degree miter. Customize Your Saw to Miter the Crown Make square cuts with the crown lying flat on the miter saw’s bed.
