Installation to Single Wood Stud Wall

Use a stud ﬁnder to locate the edges of the stud. Use of an edge-to-edge stud ﬁnder is highly recommended.

Based on its edges, draw a vertical line down the stud’s center. Place wall plate (B) on wall as a template, making

sure that the three mounting holes are over the stud centerline. The top mounting hole should be 2.5" above the

desired screen center as shown in ﬁgure 1.1. Level plate, and mark the center of the three holes. Drill three 5/32"

(4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (64 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using three #14 x 2.5" wood

screws (C) as shown in ﬁgure 1.2.

Skip to step 2 on page 7.

• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all

attached hardware and components.

• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is ﬁrmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the

screws, greatly reducing their holding power.

• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).

• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud ﬁnder

is highly recommended.

• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs.

Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.

Installation to Double Wood Stud Wall

Wall plate (B) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud ﬁnder to locate the edges of the studs.

Use of an edge-to-edge stud ﬁnder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each

stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template. The top mounting slots should be 2.5" above the desired

screen center as shown in ﬁgure 1.3. Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that

the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (64 mm) deep. Make sure

that the wall plate is level, secure it using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (C) as shown in ﬁgure 1.4.

Skip to step 2 on page 7.

Make sure that wall plate (B) is level, use it as a

template to mark four mounting holes. The top

mounting hole should be 2.5" above the desired

screen center as shown in ﬁgure 1.1 on page 4. Drill

four 5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of

2.5" (64 mm). Insert anchors (D) in holes ﬂush with

wall as shown (right). Place wall plate over anchors

and secure with #14 x 2.5" screws (C). Level, then

tighten all fasteners.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete

thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a

solid part of the block, generally 1" minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90

speciﬁcations. 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.

• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.

• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached

hardware and components.

WARNING

Drill holes and insert anchors (D).

Place plate (B) over anchors (C) and secure with screws (D).

Tighten all fasteners.

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is ﬁrmly attached,

but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage

screws, greatly reducing their holding power.

• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).

• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly

to load-bearing concrete.

• 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 as

shown below. Be sure concrete anchors do not

pull away from concrete when tightening screws. If

plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8" (16 mm), custom

fasteners must be supplied by installer.

• Tighten screws so interface bracket is ﬁrmly attached. Do not tighten with excessive force. Overtightening can

cause stress damage to screws, greatly reducing their holding power and possibly causing screw heads to become

detached. Tighten to 40 in. • lb (4.5 N.M.) maximum torque.
