Center
Remove the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate and set it
aside.
®
Drill a pilot hole in the center of each mark using a
hand held drill and a
1
/
8
˝ drill bit.
Place the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate against the
ceiling. Its mounting holes should align with the center
of the ceiling stud.

Use a pencil and mark two (2) mounting hole
locations through each of the mounting points (

the SpiroLock™ Ceiling Plate.
Step 3
Pilot Holes
When a screw is driven into a material, such
as wood, it can act as a wedge, generating
outward pressure which can cause many
materials to split. Drilling a small pilot hole
where the screw will be driven causes less
‘wedging’ to take place, thereby reducing the
likelihood of the material being split. It also
reduces the possibility of the screw head
getting sheared off by torque.
