Installation Instructions

Install the GearWall

Panels

■ Snap a level chalk line at a convenient height on the wall(s).

Measure from the chalk line to the ceiling and determine the

lowest point of the ceiling along the wall.

■ Starting from the lowest point of the ceiling, measure down

to the oor. Round the measurement down to the nearest

foot and mark. Snap a level chalk line ¹⁄4” (6.3 mm) below the

mark. Repeat step for remaining walls.

NOTE: For partial wall installation, simply snap a level chalk

line at the desired height of the bottom of the wall.

1. Measure Ceiling Sag

2. Mark Bottom of Wall

Plan your Installation

■ Install the rst stud at the starting edge of the desired

coverage area to act as a guide. Drill a hole through the

stud and into the wall surface. Follow masonry screw

manufacturer’s instructions for proper installation. For best

results use a hammer drill and masonry bit.

NOTE: For extra hold, you may choose to put

construction adhesive on the stud before attaching it to

the wall.

■ Secure the stud to the wall by placing ¹⁄4” (6.3 mm) x 2³⁄4”

(6.9 cm) masonry screws every 18” (45.72 cm).

Prepare the Wall

Masonry Block / Poured Concrete Wall

■ Before you can install the panels on poured concrete or masonry block walls, you must install 2" (5.08 cm) x 4" (10.16 cm) wooden

studs to the wall with the 4" (10.16 cm) side against the wall. The wooden studs must be installed over the entire area to be covered

by the GearWall

panels. This provides a level surface on which to mount the panels.
