Could you use a 3M hook to hang this from the ceiling or do you need to drill and find a stud?

We just used a hook, similar to the 3M; the hoop and net are light. That being said, if your child jumps or rough-houses on the bed, there is potential for the net to be pulled out. We have had ours almost a year and have had no problems but we are very strict about not playing with the net. Hope that helps.

Not sure about 3m but you do not have to drill it into a stud or use an anchor.

Yes, I did it that way and is strong sometimes my baby plays with it, and hasn't fall off

Probably not. The back base of the hooks are flat and I don't think the 3M would hold the base securely onto wall. I have not had good luck with 3M hooks for items with any weight.

Thats going to be tricky, you need something solid to bolt/screw this into. So if you are able to manage that with the dropped ceiling then you will be fine. If there is nothing solid to bolt it to, then its not a good idea.

You have to install a small hook in the ceiling. I myself purchased a really nice white one. I suggest putting in a mount first so the hook can hold better.

My husband used a screwdriver and hammer to put it together. To hang it on the wall (it's heavy) you will need screws or togglebolts. If you can hit the studs in the wall, screws will work, if not something heavier will have to be used. Home Depot or Lowes can help you with that.

There are 2 large hooks that will bolt into the beam in your ceiling. The hooks are included. I had to purchase a bit of chain as my studs were too far apart to hang directly below with the hangars they give you. It is an easy install though and the few links of chain were very inexpensive from the hardware store

Yes you do not need a stud finder either. Just make sure its tight from the ceiling to the floor. Not holes in ceiling needed.

The one I bought has HD (3/8") lag-type hooks that thread into a ceiling joist. Make CERTAIN that these are very secure, as they will be holding a lot of weight. I added gorilla glue to the hole before threading the hook into it. I am constantly checking these to make sure I don't have any problems. None so far - 3 years.

It has a metal ledge across the top. It should be fine. (I'm not sure what a 3M hook is) I hung mine on a nail.

I did not use the anchors but according to the instructions an 8mm bit is needed. If wood stud wall mounting the anchors are not needed and a 3mm bit is used to pre-drill.

I stretched 3foot long 2x2 board between my cabinets over my sink and hung the bar from it. It was easier for me in my situation, than putting ceiling anchors in the drywall ceiling.

You can always thread it with a longer rope if needed. With a long enough rope ,you can mount it any hieght you would like.

The standard hardware it comes with is for going into studs or drywall. You'd need to drill a hole through your tile and may need to get appropriate screws, sinks from home depot to make it work. Not sure if You'd want to damage your tile like that though... good luck.. you may also try the 3M hanging stickers/ mounts. The glue on those might be able to hold the weight of everything...they come off fairly easily so wouldn't damage your tile.

For safety, drilling into a stud is preferred. If not possible, I would suggest using a drywall anchoring device.

The simplest way is to locate the ceiling joists look for nailheads that hold the wallboard to the joists.Depending on construstions most joists are placed at 18 "or 24" Gaps A flashlight may help you local these.Tap the area to find the location with soild backing where the joist will be situated.Failing that, invest in a stud finder. A simple stud find can cost around $10. Simply slide it across the ceiling until it beeps or flashes as it detects a soild frame.Mark the positions of the joists & their direction. The Racks are sturdiest when hung with the chains at a angle- either outwards or inwards, this adds more stability and prevents the rack from swinging or tilting.The two chains on each end meet, so the rack will hang from just 2 points in the ceiling.The simplest way to hang the rack is in the same direction as the joists so you can simply measure point to point across one joist,drill then screw in the screws and hang the rack.If you prefer to hang thr rack at right angles to the joists, find 2 joists and measure the distance across. Make sure that the distance between them will allow you to still hang your chains at an angle, Depending on the size of your rack, you may need to use alternate joists. you will need ceiling screws - a wood screw for the joists with a hook at one end to attach the chain a drill and maybe a stud finder.

Thats a tough one,i would locate the position of the bracket on wall and use small drill bit to locate studs,if that doesn't work use large enough toggle bolts to secure bracket to wall.good luck

There is a small hanger on the bottom of the unit that will allow you to hang it from a hook. Be aware that the base would hang down away from the ceiling about 2 inches.
