IMPORTANT: Framing must be capable of
supporting 100 lbs.
If drywall is present, mark the screw hole locations
for the top mounting brackets. Remove the
template.
Ŷ Cut away enough drywall to expose 2 vertical
studs at the bracket location indicated on the
template.
Ŷ Install a horizontal support at least 1” x 12”
between two wall studs at the mounting screw
location. The horizontal support must be flush
with the room side of the studs. Use cleats
behind both sides of the support to secure to wall
studs.
NOTE: 2 horizontal supports will be needed if there
is a stud located between the horizontal screw
locations (see figure).

mounting surface.
