Install the peg. Attach a rope to this peg and draw a chalk circle with a radius of 182 cm and a second circle of 122 cm. Start marking the position of each of the 8 pillars. Draw a line to the right edge of the door and set the peg at the intersection of this line and 122 cm circle.

Gently rotate the stretched rope 45 degrees counterclockwise. Draw a second line so that a hidden corner encompasses the door entrance. If so, fix the peg at the intersection of the line and the 122 cm circle. If it doesn’t work, change these two lines so that the 45 degree arc is centered on the door frame. When the first 2 pegs are inside, do marking for other supports. This is just the beginning.
