I want to screw these holds directly into my daughters wall. Is this a possibility? Seems like all the other people mounted them onto plywood.

This particular mounting system requires you have access to the back of the wall to put in the 'T nuts". Also, drywall wouldn't hold. They would just pull through.

These holds have large holes to use with standard bolts and t-nuts, not screws. Unless you're screwing them with large head screws and drilling them directly into a stud or solid surface (not the drywall), they won't stay on the wall. I would suggest mounting a plywood sheet on her wall, drilling holes through the plywood, putting t-nuts in the back of it and bolting these in place. That way you can move the holds around and attach the plywood, via screws, to the wall's studs for a safe and secure climbing wall. You can then remove the plywood at a future date, fill the holes and repaint the drywall, and no one will be the wiser. These holds have large holes to use with standard bolts and t-nuts, not screws.

The reason for mounting these bolts onto plywood is that they are machine bolts and require T-nuts to fasten the climbing hold firmly. You might be able to find wood lag screws and screw them into the studs of the wall but the constant application of weight on the holds would loosen the lag screws and the holds would spin. Here is a nice video of how the bolts and holds are placed on the 3/4" plywood. http://www.threeballclimbing.com/hardware/t-nuts.htm. You could drill all the holes for the holds on the plywood like in the video, then place 2X4 studs between the plywood and the wall studs and lag screw the plywood onto the wall for a vertical climbing wall. Hope this helps.

These blocks are actually through bolted to a structure. Not screwed onto. Very different from a strength perspective. The wall has to at least as strong as plywood to support the weight.
194448
Unfortunately no. The screws need to go into the nut behind a board in order for the boulders to have sufficient strength.
194449
These are designed to be bolted to a backing. I am not sure how you are planning to secure it to the wall. Are you thinking a corse threaded bolt? Either way you would need to either have the backing or perhaps install them into studs. I don't think this is what you need

Debbie--they must be mounted from the back--You could mount on 3/4" plywood then on your wall
194451
You can if you know where the studs are, screwing into drywall they will just rip out and your daughter will get hurt, so you may screw them into the studs or you will need to install a piece of plywood to use as backing.

Yes, but like others have said, they are not very good screws. They would probably be fine if you were screwing into a wall stud. If screwing into drywall, they will not work. You will need to use a drywall anchor. That is what I did. With the gun on the hangers, you would be hard pressed to tell that the hangers are mounted with silver colored screws with a drywall anchor behind them.

Yes we were very disappointed that there is no way to mount them to anything. We have a wood railing on our porch and we used liquid nails to attach them.Good luck

Installing the grab bars into wall studs is the only sensible way to do it. Think about it--a hollow wall will not give a good "hold" and with enough time, the grab bar will eventually disconnect from the hollow wall and all you'll have is the grab bar in your hand as you lay in the tub or shower or floor. I installed 7 of the grab bars in the house and every one of them is screwed into wood. I wanted secure bars that would stay installed forever. Does this help?

We put them into a frame and covered them with fabric. We shot a few staples into the sides to keep it from moving but screws would work. It is dense enough to be held by a screw providing your frame is tight.

We were placing into plywood but used standard deck screws. Out of all the holds there was only one hole that was drilled a little funky and made it tight to get the screw in.

That's really not possible. The weight will pull any toggles right out of the wall and take a big chunk on drywall with them. Your best best if you can't get into the studs is to mount a piece of 3/4" cabinet grade plywood or another very strong backing material to the wall studs and then mount the shelf to the plywood. We did that and then painted the backing the same color as the wall and you really can't even see it. Keep the size of the plywood limited to a minimum. We cut ours the height of the shelf unit (with brackets) and then the width to the width necessary to secure to the studs. Mine is loaded with hanging pots and then other items on the shelf.

they don't come with screws. depends on if you are attaching them to wood or concrete wall. you will need to supply your own screws.

They are not set up to be wall mounted. You would have to drill holes on your own and could do it. Need to make sure they are in a stud though as they are heavy duty shelves and have a good bit of weight even when empty.

Yes, that is exactly what we did. My husband mounted two small strips of wood to the wall (because the board frame is not wide enough to reach two studs) and mounted the board to those strips. Works great.

I don't see a way to mount them on a wall other than drilling a hole in the plastic (which might result in cracking the unit) then putting screws through into the wall. Mine are all stacked on each other.

Hello MudMonkey, Technically, yes you can screw the mount into the wall. There are screw holes in the back part of the mounting plate. Please let me know if you have any further questions! Thanks, Taylor W. VIVO Technology

We have affixed them with double sided tape (I believe the tape was included but I'm not certain) but they also come with screws in case you want to mount them that way. They work great.

You probably could, although since the back of these are mostly magnets, it might be a bit of a challeng to find a way to get a fastener onto it.. For wall mounting I would suggest the boards made more like bulletin boards.

You can use screws/nails in the wall, then slide the speaker holes over the screw/nail. Make sure whatever you use is not bigger than the opening of the hole. I have my speakers on the wall, and they stay tight and have never come loose.

There are plastic mounts that screw in the wall. The rails snap on to these.

I don't remember if they came with brackets to do that, but I would think you could get those cheap at the store and secure to the wall. I did not do that so if they were in there, they were added to our other hardware. Sorry.
