Hi. Just a quick question if I may.

I'm looking to fit one tight up against my soffit but before I order one I see that it seems to be hinged at the top.

Has anyone fitted one of these? If so could you tell me whether I can fit the cover without having to hinge it from the top?

I was hoping to drop the cable through the soffit.

Ta!

cheers.

The soffits hang over about about 2 courses already so that's going to be a long hole to drill. But it's gotta be done so cheers all or the advice.

Have some Polyfila a ready for the room inside if you get it wrong

Overhang doesn't matter, above suggested your drilling in the wall one course down 45angle , depends on how your house is made up , some have the inner wall in the way and you have to feel quite far down where the cable is , just shove loads of cable in from outside and if you don't have rods use a metal coat hanger as a hook to poke in from inside the roof to the eaves to find cable
