Has anyone used the wall anchors in drywall? My garage studs are not 16 or 24 inches apart, so only 1 side lines up. Stupid new construction!

My studs did not line up well either since I mounted mine in corner of garage. I did not use drywall anchors though; I build a frame using 1x6's which I think worked very well. It is super sturdy, and I wasn't worried about seeing the wood mounted on the wall since it was the garage. I have pictures of how I did it, so if you want to see them, just let me know. My email is jshook12@yahoo.com Good luck!

I had the same problem. I put up a couple of 4X8's. Put them up each 4 across for each hole on the pull-up bars. Make sure the 4X8 are in 4 different studs and you can put the pull-up bar on any spot of the 4X8 boards. I used that size boards because I put in a bunch of screws. Im over 200lb and it holds me just fine. Hope this helps.

I installed mine on a wall with drywall; however, placed 2x10's over the drywall so I could anchor the 2x10s to the studs behind the drywall, then the pull-up bar to the 2x10s. Would post a picture, but don't think Amazon would allow. Email at suitkins@gmail.com if you want a picture of it.

I wouldn't. It weighs a lot and it will be under a lot of stress. If I were you, I would mount a 4-2"x6"'s horizontally across your wall, attaching them to your studs, and then mount the pull-up bar through the studs on one side and into just the 2"x6"'s on the other side.

This is a heavy piece and I wouldn't mount it into drywall. Run a couple of 2x4's horizontally linking your wall studs and screw the pull up bar into the 2x4's. If you don't, the side bolted into the drywall without a stud to support will pull out. It may not be pretty but it will be functional. Good luck

I did...its attach in one wall...and no wall on the other side.....mine is 12 feet wide. So we install 2 of these and each one is attach to 1 wall at the end...and nothing in the middle. Its perfect!

16" apart for studs. I found it necessary to hang on 3 studs total for maximum stability. Not sure of an alternative.

If you're seating this directly into the drywall, I'd say yes. Although, if I recall correctly, the pre-drilled holes are spaced roughly sixteen(16) inches apart, so if you have flexibility in where you place the hanger, you can simply drive a screw into the stud on one end, level it, and the other hole should line up with the other stud.

Should work fine just get some overkill dry wall anchors from HD or Lowes. You should be able to find a stud though. And as for how far away from the wall the hook center is it's about 5-8inches and is more of a bar than hook system that runs through the front tire.Very easy to setup and would highly recommend

I have the same wall mount. I have mine set up for two studs, although if necessary there holes in the center if I wanted to set it up for just one stud. I chose the 2 stud option to be safe.

I've had to rehang mine after moving and bought new screws. It comes with anchors and screws. Use Red Head #12 x 1-7/16 because they are the right size and can go in sheet rock or concrete walls. If you are going into a stud, don't use the anchor.

DO NOT HANG THIS ON JUST DRYWALL! The bracket has holes spaced to allow you to get lag bolts into the studs behind the drywall. I know it will work on 16 and 24 inch on center. If you mount it in just drywall it will rip out.

Drywall anchors are very, very inexpensive and should not be an issue. The rod is beautiful but I don't remember if it comes with these.

The horizontal distance between the two sets of holes is exactly 16 inches. Perfect for most studded walls. I have installed two of them and have had no issues to date. Does that answer your inquiry?

The side pair of mine are mounted with the drywall anchors they sell at Home Depot, the metal ones that hold like 40lbs.. the description will have their weight, but I guess it depends on if there was something previously in the drywall, as to if it will hold or not.. sometimes patching isn't strong enough.

They are 16" apart...I was still concerned about a lag bolt not hitting the stud correctly so I attached 2x8 s to the studs and then attached the wall mount to the 2x8s. Gave me more peace of mind...no problems here.

for the anchors that came with mine, 7/32" for dry, wall 1/4" for cinder block or concrete. The anchors are real cheap ones. If you have a problem with them, just get some better ones at at Home depot or Lowes, these should have drill bit size listed on package. the anchors should go in snuggly and flush to wall. You may need to tap them in lightly with hammer. (emphasis on "lightly")

I had wall studs exposed, so I mounted a 2x6 between the studs before sheetrock to give it something strong to hang on.After all sheetrock and paint done I just mounted brackets on wall w screws into that board. Culk and the plyming keeps it from moving around. Another option would be lag bolts w washer.I to found the brackets hard to understand, more the casting on the sink fault though. Just remember people, kids, have a tendancybto lean or rest on sinks.. so make the mount strong.Love the sink, works great!

There are one and three-fourths inches from the center of one mounting screw to the center of the other mounting screw. Hope your studs are real close together!

Im thinking you need the extensions as pictured against a wall, the extensions seem to be the way to go. Im giving them a try.

I will gladly send photos of my installation (I tried to insert a photo and couldn't, if you know how let me know) I ran into a situation where the new mounting sights where the shower rod attaches to the wall was not at a point where a wall stud was located. I used a screw-in drywall anchor (like the The Hillman Group 41408 Self-Drilling Hollow Wall Anchor found on Amazon)
