These templates are attached to ceiling framing before drywall installation to mark and guide the cutout location for the speaker, providing accurate positioning during the rough-in phase of construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn new construction projects, in-ceiling speakers must be positioned before drywall is installed. The SPKA-NCTP-IC810 flat template is secured to the ceiling framing and acts as a placeholder during the drywall and finishing stages. After finishing, the template guides the cutter to the precise speaker location for a clean, accurate cutout. Joist spacing compatibility ranges from 15 to 26 inches on-center. The flat version allows drywall to be installed directly over the template. A collared variant (SPKA-NCTP-IC811) is also available for installations where drywall compound finishing over the template is needed. Sold in packs of ten. Compatible with Saros IC8T, ICE8T, IC8LPT, ICE8LPT, and ICS8T speakers.

The collared version (IC811) is designed for situations where drywall compound finishing over the collar provides a smooth ceiling surface before the speaker is inserted.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAre these templates compatible with Saros 4-inch or 6-inch in-ceiling speakers?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNo. The SPKA-NCTP-IC810 is specifically for the Saros 8-inch series. For 4-inch or 6-inch speakers, use the corresponding new-construction template accessory designed for that speaker size.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCan these templates be reused?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eThe metal templates are durable and can be repositioned during framing if the speaker layout changes before drywall installation.
