Abstract (en)
An installation spacer (20) for guiding a fastener (50) when fixing a building component (40) such as a door or a window frame to a wall (45) comprises an essentially flat mounting base (22) defining a base plane (21), a guiding tube (26) with a central through hole (29) around its longitudinal axis (25) and a first end (27) and a second end (28) and a wedge element (24) fixedly connecting said guide tube (26) with the mounting base (22). The wedge element is construed to define an acute angle α between the axis (25) and the base plane (21) such that the first end (28) is located closer to the base plane (21) than the second end (28). α is being chosen from a value between 5° to 30°, preferably α is being chosen to be 6°.A respective method for installing a building component (40) such as a door or a window to a wall (45) includes providing a building component (40) with an outer, frame-like structure which a plurality of installation spacers (20) mounted to the outer frame surface, placing the building component (40) adjacent to a wall opening, aligning the building component (40) in its target position and screwing in a screw (50) through the installation spacer's (20) guiding tube (26) into a section to the wall.
