INSTALLATION OF THE WALL PLATE TO THE WALL
Disassemble the lock plate from the wall plate.
Before installing the wall plate to the wall, disassemble the lock plate from the wall
plate, remove the two Philips screws with the Philips head screwdriver, and remove
the lock plate. See fig. 2.
Four installation choices are covered below: wood stud, brick, solid concrete and
concrete block.
Wood stud installation:
The wall plate (A) must be anchored to the two wood studs at a distance over
30.5cm (12”). Use a high quality wood stud finder, to locate two adjacent studs. We
suggest using an awl, or thin nails, to confirm the location of the wood stud (as shown
in fig 2.1). Use the 5mm (1/5”) drill bit and drill 64mm (2 1/2”) deep holes in each of
wood stud’s. Then use four M8 square head screw bolts (L) and four metal pads (K)
and install the wall plate to the wall, please make sure the installation direction of the
wall plate is correct (as shown in fig 2.2).
Brick, solid concrete and concrete block installation:
Use wall plate (A) as a template and mark four holes in the wall. The left and right hole
places should be spread as far apart as possible. Use the 10mm (2/5”) drill bits to drill
these holes making sure the depth is at least 64mm (2 1/2”).
Put two bolts in the top row of slots and two in the bottom row. Make sure these
holes are level, and that there is at least 15.2cm (6”) between any two holes. Insert
the wall anchor (M) into these holes respectively, making sure they are flush with the
wall surface. Finally use the four square head screw bolts (L) to install the wall plate to
the wall (as shown in fig. 2.3).

WARNING
When installing the wall mount onto a solid concrete wall, verify that you have a
minimum of 35mm (1 3/8”) of actual concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the
concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid part of
the wall. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on a slow setting is used to drill
the hole, instead of a hammer drill.
The concrete must be 2000PSI minimum density minimum.
The anchors must be seated firmly against the concrete or masonry. If mounting to a
masonry wall covered with drywall/plaster, counter bore a hole through the drywall/
plaster around the mounting hole location, so that the anchor can be seated directly
against concrete or masonry.
