Exception Stores:
When an exception store is found, then discuss with the Help Desk the proper method to
install the store. Some stores that will require special handling to install are stores with
sheet rock, wood and concrete ceilings. The following pictures are examples of how
some of these exception stores may have to be installed.
Sheet Rock or Wood Ceilings
Sheet rock or wood ceiling may be found over the sales floor and/or stock room. The
following examples show approved methods that have been used to install these stores.
In stores with sheet rock or wood ceiling the wall mount method for the MEU may be
required. Please refer to that section of this guide for more detail.
With a sheet rock or wood ceiling attach a 1” mounting base to the ceiling or wall about
every 5 feet. Attach it with the self adhesive strip and a 1 ¼ inch drywall screw. Then run
a cable tie through the mounting base to run the cable through. The cable tie should be
loose enough that the cables can be adjusted.
To suspend either a Tx/ATA or Rx/ARA install four mounting bases to the ceiling in the
shape of a square. Use a drywall screw for each mounting base. For an Rx/ARA form a
square with the outside dimensions about 7”. For a Tx/ATA form a square of about 3” with
the mounting bases.
Only with a sheet rock or wood ceiling all of the service loop can be placed at the MEU
location if needed.
It is highly recommended that the CIT has a cordless drill with the correct bits for
each member of the installation team when installing a wood ceiling. This will
substantially reduce the installation time of a mounting base and screw into a wood
beam. Do no use the drill to install the screw in a sheet rock ceiling unless the
screw is also going into a stud.
