If drywall is present, mark the screw hole locations
for the top mounting brackets. Remove the template.
• Cut away enough drywall to expose 2 vertical studs
at the bracket location indicated on the template.
• 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).
IMPORTANT: Reinstall drywall for an even mounting
surface.
