Install

To install Ready Mount products please follow the instruction below:

Mounting to Drywall:

  • Included drywall anchors and #8 screws shipped with your mount (2 for most mounts)
  • 1/4″ drill bit
  • Drill
  • Long Screwdriver
 

Mounting to Studs or Solid items:

  • Included #8 screws, or a pan head type screw of the proper type and length for your specific mounting situation.
  • 1/8″ drill bit
  • Drill
  • Long screwdriver or extended Phillips bit for your drill
 

 Installation:

  1. Locate your Ready Mount product on the wall or surface you intent to mount to, ensure the mount is level and the items the mount will hold are positioned according to your needs.  
  2. Use a pencil or drill bit to mark the hole locations of your mount. Please use ALL supplied mounting holes on our products. 

      

  3. Remove the mount and drill the 1/4″ hole for drywall anchors, or the 1/8″ hole for solid backing on the selected marks. (If needed, we always recommend going to studs or solid walls)

  4. If using the drywall anchors, gently tap them into the drywall until they are flush with the surface. This should not require much force.

  5. Align the mount with your holes, and install the screws. Do not over-tighten the screws into the mount, this can strip the anchor and make the anchor point fail.

 
Notes:
  • We always recommend screwing mounts and rails into studs or solid backings whenever possible
  • Never use tapered base screws with Ready Mount products as this can cause the mount to split, only use pan head or flat base screws to secure the mounts. If the product is damaged by using the wrong screw type it will void any warranty.
