Step 1: Determine location
The climbing wall
must be
mounted to a framed wall formed of 2x4 wood studs (or
stronger, e.g., 2x6 studs) at 16” on center. The climbing wall may be mounted to
concrete walls or other structural walls (e.g., CMU, steel studs, etc.) possibly using other
hardware.
We assume the framed wall to be covered with dry wall and to include insulation.
Therefore, we recommend mounting wood 2x4s in a horizontal orientation and on the
3.5” side against the drywall. This will create a 1.5” air gap behind the panels when they
are mounted in this way leaving room for the hand hold bolts to project through the
panels after installation of the hand holds.
The final climbing wall with the board is 16 ft 2 in long and 8 ft 1 in tall. The traverse
wall can be placed in a corner of a room, with one side being 4 ft and the other side
extending 12 ft or both sides being 8 ft in length.
