Content: Step 4
Choose which side you will start with, and punch a hole in the other side with a sledgehammer, which will help draw concrete dust away from you as you cut through the wall. Step 5
Insert the masonry saw blade in one of the holes, and cut along the line. Cut through the remaining lines until you have created the opening. Move to the other side and cut along the lines. Warning
You may need to brace the opening with an angle iron before framing a door or window. Bracing can help prevent the wall from cracking. Do not attempt this task unless you have significant building knowledge and experience. This is a difficult project that should not be attempted by beginners. Improper placement of the opening can weaken a cinder block wall and cause the structure to collapse. Advertisement
