2. Attach Wall Mounting Plate
2a. Attach Wall Mounting Plate to Framed Walls
1. Locate the rough position of the laundry tub and then
locate the wall studs. The mounting plate must be
attached using at least three screws.
If only two screws can be used, install cross blocking
(2” x 6”) between the studs and then attach the wall mounting
plate. Again, for double sinks install cross blocking (2” x 6”)
between the studs to add extra support for the wall mounting
plate and the sink.
2. Determine the comfortable working height of the top of the
sink. This height may vary depending on your application;
however, a typical dimension is 32” up from the floor. Use a
level to mark a line 1” below the desired height on the wall.
Note:
Trial fit the wall mounting plate to the laundry tub. If the
mounting plate is too long, break off the left side of the
wall mounting plate by snapping it along the plate’s
scored ridge.
3. Position the top lip of the wall mounting plate on the mark.
Be sure you mark the mounting holes over the
studs/cross-blocks. Use a bubble level to make sure the
wall mounting bracket is level.
4. Drill a 1/8” pilot hole into the wood and attach the
mounting plate to the wall with at least three 1/4" x 1-1/2"
long zinc hex head lag screws. Tighten the screws with a
Phillips screwdriver.
Note:
On double bowl models use at least six screws to
attach the wall mounting bracket to the wall.
2b. Attaching Wall Mounting Plate to Concrete
or Block Walls with Plastic Wall Anchors
There are two methods to install the mounting plate onto a
concrete or block wall; Step 2b) a plastic wall anchor with a lag
screw, or, Step 2c) Tapcon concrete screws. The tapcon
screws for mounting the wall mounting plate to concrete are not
supplied with the product and must be purchased separately.
1. Locate the height of the wall mounting plate in the same
manner as with wood construction (Step 2a).
Note:
Trial fit the wall mounting plate to the laundry tub. If the
wall mounting plate is too long, break off the left side of
the wall mounting plate by snapping it along the plate’s
scored ridge.
