Mounting the wall plate
to the wall
Brick, Solid Concrete and Concrete Block mounting:
Use the Wall Plate(a) as a template to mark 3 hole locations on the wall.
Make sure these holes are level. Pre-Drill these holes with a 3/8”(10mm)
masonry bit to at least 2.4”(60mm) in depth. Insert a Concrete Anchor(r)
into each of these holes. Make sure the anchor is seated completely
flush with the concrete surface even if there is a layer of drywall or other
material in front. Attach the Wall Plate to the wall using 3pcs Lag Bolts(p)
and 3pcs Lag Bolt Washers(q), shown in Diagram 2A.
Wood Stud mounting:
The Wall Plate(a) must be mounted to two wood studs at least
16”(406mm) apart. Use a stud finder to locate two adjacent studs. It is a
good idea to verify where the studs are located with an awl or thin nail
shown in Diagram 2B. Pre-drill a 2.4”(60mm) deep hole at the desired
height in each stud using a 5/32”(4mm) drill bit. Make sure these holes
are in the center area of the studs and level with each other. Attach
the Wall Plate to the wall using the 2pcs Lag Bolts(p) and 2pcs Lag Bolt
Washers(q).
