Can this bar be mounted via standard wall studs (16 " )?

The measurement from hole to hole on each mounting bracket is now 48 inches across so that it can be mounted to wall studs with standard 16 inch spacing. Total length across of unit is now 50 inches (edge of frame to edge of frame).

Not without some modification. The ends of the bar itself would need to be trimmed down, or new holes drilled through it to line up the holes in the mounting brackets.

Yes, the two vertical mounts are basically light stands with 1/4" or 3/8" studs. You may need to purchase an adapter for your particular light but they can be found cheap and plentiful right here on Amazon. If you already own two spare light stands you could build your own crossbar and save some money.

Yes, and if you haven't already purchased it, don't bother. It's flimsy, bends when grabbing a paper towel, and can only be mounted in one position. The back side of the bar is hollow. I ended up trashing it and buying a different one. Hope this helps.

Each one is 16" vertical and 1+5/8" wide. When I started using mine, the leverage down on the bottom bolt compressed the plaster and drywall against the stud and required a minor patch job - so be conscious of how you bolt them in. It seems like a very sturdy bar though.

The mount lines up with 12 or 16" spaced studs. Mine were 24" apart so I had to improvise a bit.

I installed the bar using 2" screws into wall studs. I had to open the wall to add lumber for a good anchor point. I would not trust anchors installed in drywall. The 36" length does not work well with 16" or 24" framing.

The width is only for the television; only the upright bar mounts to the wall, and pretty securely on one stud, so you'd likely want to center the assembly on a stud. Also, lots of options for fitting various television configurations. i'd be surprised if a TV didn't fit one of the options.

Two wall studs are needed 16" apart. The mount comes with lots of extra hardware to adapt to almost any flat screen TV.

I did. Because it was 24" long and the studs in my wall are 16" apart, I decided to install the rail diagonally so that both ends could have at least one screw go into the middle of a stud.

To use the bracket separately, you would not install the bar. They sell a similar product that is just the end bracket.

Mine is already mounted so I can't get and edge to edge measurement. I tried eyeballing the outer edges with a steel tape and got 18 3/4" but I'll go with the consensus. The more important issue is to use a good stud finder and locate the EDGES of each stud. Then make sure that a couple of mounting holes on each end are centered within each stud and not too close to a stud edge. As was mentioned, if the studs are not exactly 16" OC, you may have to angle the grab bar. This won't make a difference in the functionality.

Yes. The short bars are 16" and the long bars are 23-3/8". Thank you for your inquiry.

I just looked at ours and closed from the edge of the bar to the other end is 16 inches then you have the opening on either end. Then each opening is 4 inches so I really can't say yes or no you would probably have to try it.

I just measured, the mounting holes are 16" apart,center screw to center screw.

If you drill into the studs, yes. However, the holes that are pre-drilled are not 16" apart, so you have to find the studs, then line up and put an extra hole into the hanger. No big deal, but it does tale a bit of time. I have had two of these in two different houses. Put both into the studs... Plenty of strength that way.

There really is no way to recommend what hardware to use without seeing where it will be installed. The best person to determine that would be the professional who installs it. The holes in the bracket are approximately 7/16".
