4. Overview
Thank you for purchasing a great product from Strong™. We appreciate your purchase and are committed to providing the highest
quality products possible. The Strong VersaMount™ is designed to provide the best in-wall TV-mounting solution for installers adding
equipment behind low-profile displays and other wall-mounted equipment. It can easily be installed in new jobs with the included dust
cover to protect the VersaMount™ during construction.
Inside the enclosure, components may be mounted using the built-in attachment points with expansion pins or zip ties. Add a wattbox
(not included) to the bottom of the VersaMount™ for the best power and space-saving solution.
Using Knockouts
The knockouts on the top and bottom of the VersaMount may be used
for installing low voltage rings or for outlet boxes. If an outlet box is
installed, it must be an old work, residential grade box with integrated
work supports to allow for secure mounting.
When knocking out the opening, leave the small screw tabs installed if
a low voltage ring is being mounted, or remove them to install an outlet
box.
Note: To ensure fire safety, the silicone grommets must remain in the
VersaBox Pro. When using these as wire guides, slit each grommet
down the middle in a “+” shape, never remove them.
Modules
The back wall of the VersaMount has holes and knockouts stamped into
it on 6” centers to allow for easy structured can module installation. Use
a ¼” drill bit to open more of the knockout stamps as needed to mount
equipment.
5. Installing Equipment into the Strong VersaMount™
The VersaMount allows for a variety of equipment configuration options. Experiment with the equipment configuration to determine
the best installation method. For images of different configurations of equipment installed in the VersaMount, see the VersaMount
product page and Support Tab at www.SnapAV.com.
6. New Work Installation Instructions
The
SM-VM-ART1-IW-L dust cover is designed to protect the inside of the Strong VersaMount in new work applications before drywall
is hung on the studs.
Note: Determine what thickness the drywall will be before installing the pre-construction bracket. If the studs are wider than 16” use
dog ears.
Strong VersaBox™ Installation (after drywall is installed)
1. Open any knockouts in the VersaBox that will be used for wiring or electrical.
2. Pull the wires out of the wall opening and pull them into the desired openings
of the VersaBox.
3. Insert the box into the opening left where the bracket is. Use standard drywall
screws to secure the box to the studs on each side of the enclosure as
illustrated.
4.
Use the dust cover to protect the inside of the VersaMount during finishing
work.
Go to the SM-VM-ART1-IW-L product page at www.SnapAV.com for tips and

either side of the box.
Secure 2 screws in
each side through
the allotted holes.
