Dry Wall With Wood Studs
The
Wall Plate
(A)
MUST be mounted to two wood studs
. Use a high quality stud sensor 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 1-A below. Pre-drill a 3mm (0.12 inch) deep hole at the desired
height in each stud using a 4mm drill bit. Make sure these holes are level. Use the
Wall Plate
as
a template to mark the location of the second hole in each stud. Pre-drill two holes using the
4mm drill bit as well. Attach the
Wall Plate
to the wall using 4
Lag Bolts
(E). Make sure the
Wall
Plate
is oriented so the flat surface in the center of the plate is against the wall shown in
diagram 1-B.
