Overhauls cannot be made without gating. However, it is important to know before starting work whether the wall in which the master intends to equip the strobes is the supporting wall of the apartment building. Even if the building is not a panel, it’s still necessary to coordinate the issue of gating with the authorities.
Carrying out repairs often implies the need for wall chipping. This procedure allows you to transfer or replace wiring. You can use one of the existing methods of gating for this, but each of them involves the use of a perforator.

Work should begin with the marking, for this, with a pencil on the wall surface, it is necessary to draw a line through the wiring. Here you will need to take into account the location and number of outlets, as well as lamps.
As soon as the markup is done, you can start work where you need a hammer drill. With its help, 2 not too deep lines should be drilled along the marking, which should be parallel. The lines will become the borders of the strobe. The step between the lines should not be less than 1 cm, this distance can be somewhat larger.
Then the punch will be transferred to hammer mode, which will connect the lines and get a single channel as a result. The tool should be held at a slight angle. The strobe at this stage should be deepened so that the cable can be placed in it. You can use a drill, but the work will be longer and laborious.
