Installing Mounting Plate to Wall or Ceiling
3
For Attachment to Wood Studs or Wood Beams
Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the stud. Use of an
edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on
their edges, draw a vertical line down the stud's center. Place
mounting plate (A) on wall as a template. Mark the center of
the two mounting holes. Make sure the mounting holes are on
the stud centerline. Drill four 1/8" (3 mm) dia. holes1-7/8" (48
mm) deep. Secure mounting plate using two #12 x 1-3/4" self
tapping screws (N).
3-1
For Attachment to Concrete or Cinder Block
Use mounting plate as a template to mark the two
mounting holes. NOTE: For wall mounting applications,
position mounting holes in a vertical pattern. Drill two
5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 1-7/8"
(48 mm). Insert anchors (O) in holes flush with surface
as shown in figure 3.2. Place mounting plate over
anchors and secure with two #12 x 1-3/4" self tapping
screws (N) as shown in figure 3.3.

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-5/8" of actual concrete
surface in the 1/4" diameter hole to be used for the concrete anchors. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on
slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering
a void or cavity. Do not drill into mortar joints!
• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete covered with plaster, drywall or other finishing material. If
mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a finishing surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface must be
counterbored.
• Tighten concrete anchor bolt firmly, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the screw, greatly reducing its
holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in • lb (9 N.M.).
