I apologize for not knowing the technical name for the house type. The
house exterior walls are formed using Styrofoam and pouring concrete between
the Styrofoam walls.
Here's my problem. I haven't installed a system in a house like this, and
I'm not sure how to run the wires to the windows and the doors. The windows
sit about 6 inches away from the interior wall. To run the wire that deep,
would mean drilling through the poured concrete. What I'm trying to avoid
is showing to much wire. I want the job to look as clean as possible.
The other problem I'm running into is with the doors. The doors aren't
installed yet, so how do I know where to run the wire to. I'm installing
recessed contacts at the doors. The doors are framed out, but there isn't
any markings to help determine where the door will be in the 8 inches of
space.
I hope this made sense.
