Is the back of this magnetic tool bar flat, or ridged? I'm considering mounting it with strong adhesive instead of screwing into the wall. Thanks!

It's flat, varnished wood. The entire back is available for glue, except for two small screw holes.

Dear Chris, it is extremely smooth on the back. I myself, have heavyweight items attached so I needed to screw it in. Good luck, have a great and blessed day!

It is flat and would generally stick to a 3M strip or similar product. But I would be wary as the constant force of pulling a knife off the block (as well as the general weight of your knives) might be too much for the block. This actually happened to me a few years ago.

It's completely smooth, wood backing. Two holes where the screw would go through only.

Yes, it is flat. If you decide to put it on tile put tape over the area that you will be drilling for the holes. Keeps the tile from cracking.

No, it's a flat back with no holes whatsoever. I guess you'd be stuck with double-sided mounting tape or something like that.

Perry, I'm not sure. I just cut the hole out of the drywall based of the space required. I'm also confused by what you mean angle, how would angle affect mounting it?

I solved this problem with a 50lb magnet Master Magnetics #07502 Universal Latch MagnetClose the mount to travel position, then find the best place where magnet would grab the steel mounting plate of flat screen, while magnet is attached to base arm. Makes a very strong connection and may require a good pull to dislodge from stored position, you will hear a loud click when the magnet grabs, but is very solid solution.

The mounting is an L shaped bracket. I was lucky enough to have someone on hand with the right tools to cut the L shape in to an I shape. Then screw it into the wall and hang as you would.

I'm not a carpenter or an engineer but I feel you should be safe mounting it above the door if you attached it to a stud behind the wall. If you simply screw it into the dry wall, the screws will pull right out causing you to face plant on your first set of TRX pushups. Be sure to pre-drill your holes. The mounting screws are huge and might split the board you are screwing them into if you don't have holes for them to go into.

I can see there are two little holes at the back which are likely for wall mounting screws. Pls contact the Seller in case of further query. Thanks.

I didn't get the slotted tool holder, but after going out to look at the wall control board, I would say no. Another note that may concern you is with a horizontal mount, it would not line up with the 16 inch centered studs as it does when mounted vertically and you would have to use wall anchors. This may not be a problem for you, but I like going directly into a stud for support. These are definitely nice units, even if they are pricey. Besides being functional, they look great and have had many compliments on them.

Flat.... The face will be parallel to the back (and not on an angle). But, it will be pretty thick. In general, I like it.

No problem. The mounting hardward doesn't show. I would recommend however that you purchase also from a local store a strip of cord cover for the picture down to the outlet. Makes it look a whole lot neater.Regards,

Flat on both sides to mount on a flat surface, but a recessed V in the middle to accommodate roll bar mounting. Extremely well built. Highly recommend this mount!!

I can now answer, as we've gotten ours already. (Very quick delivery for this item compared to others on the Super Saver shipped order.)No is the answer. The magnets face only the one direction. Backwards, it sticks to the fridge fine, but then of course there's nowhere to stick the knives.Very easy mount to the side of the cabinet--we hung ours vertically there, and the knives stay horizontal just fine. I used my own 1/2" screws, but even those threads are a bit too deep as they poke a bit to the inside of the cabinet. It comes with 1" screws and plastic anchors.

Mine was 4 screws; the bottom and middle were mid-line and the top two were offset lower-left and upper-right. The wall template was stenciled backward so I had to put the front of the template against the wall for the top holes to align with the metal mounting plate.

hmmm, not sure. mine is flat against the wall. some stupid questions: the short side is mounted vertically and the screws are all flush?

The magnetic part is hollow and there is a metal piece that screws into the wall. You slide the magnetic part into that piece. I would advice against using double sided tape. I use this at my bakery to hold pizza cutters but has evolved into knife, spoons, pizza cutter holders. If I use double sided tape it would probably just fall off and maybe liable to hurt someone.

Yes - the back is "magnetic" but since it is mounted in a steel frame the holding power to the rear is limited. The effectiveness of the magnetic strip is not outstanding - for your purpose go to MSC and pay $50 to $60 for a real magnetic strip tool holder which has a strong attraction - this item is far less expensive and of lesser quality.

Mine is pretty flush, cut between the studs and screw in from the sides, not the back.
