STEP 4: ATTACH OTHER THREE ARMS
Repeat STEP THREE for remaining arms.
STEP 5: HANG TABS
Position two hang tabs (5) at tops of each arm pair, insert barrel nuts/bolts and loosely tighten
.
STEP 6: LEVEL POT RACK ON TABLE
Place assembled rack squarely on table and adjust all parts to be certain they are level and straight.
Then tighten all bolts firmly.
STEP 7: PLACE BRACKETS
Position brackets on pot rack as shown in illustration
STEP 8: LAY GRID PANELS ACROSS BRACKETS
Position panels side by side in pot rack as shown in illustration. Each panel is 22” x 6”. Place 6” bar side DOWN to run
parallel with brackets thus minimizing side slippage while in use.
TOOLS NEEDED:
Provided: Installation hardware (anchors, bolt hooks, screw hooks, S-hooks)
You will need: tape measure, pencil, drill and ½” drill bit, hammer and nail
STEP 1: LOCATION
Decide where you want to place your pot rack. Also consider the height of the ceiling where the pot rack will hang.
(See STEP 2 below.)
On the ceiling, mark two points 20-3/4” apart where the top of rack arms (at hang tabs) will attach to ceiling bolt hooks. Then
tap a small nail through each mark to be certain a joist is not in the way. (NOTE: because your pot rack includes super-strong
new-technology anchors, you DO NOT need to locate and bolt to ceiling joists. See more info under STEP 3 below.)
STEP 2: HEIGHT
What is the ideal height for your pot rack? Decide who will be the primary cook using the pot rack. The bottom of your longest
pan (usually a 10” or 12” skillet) should be easily reachable, about 6 inches above the cook’s head. Make sure the cook can
also reach the shortest pots.
This pot rack is designed for a 9-foot ceiling, a common height in many kitchens. If your ceiling is HIGHER than 9 feet, you
may want to consider adding chain to lower the rack to the ideal height. (Buy chain at a hardware store or contact our Custom-
er Service department.)
If your ceiling is LOWER than 9 feet, hanging pots may interfere with views through the kitchen, therefore you may want to
consider our Low-Ceiling Arms (a

accessory) to raise the rack another 9-10”.
STEP 3: INSTALL DRYWALL ANCHORS—DO NOT TEST TOGGLE! ONE TIME USE ONLY!!!
RACK IT UP!’s
drywall togglers eliminate the need to bolt your pot rack to a stud. The steel anchors are very strong and when
installed in drywall each drywall anchor holds about 200 lbs. Two anchors hold about 400 lbs., many times the weight you will
likely hang from your pot rack.
See Back of this Booklet for Toggle Instructions.
INSTALL IN WOOD
If you need to install one or both sides of your rack in wood, use one or two of the wood screw hooks screws (20) included.
See back page of booklet under Step 1.
