Can I use on concrete walls?

It is a wallpaper. A very porous surface will not provide a good adhesion between wall and paper. Texture if concrete will be transferred to texture of mural. A sealer, a couple of coats, would allow application but the surface texture will be apparent under close inspection.

Hi Leo,I haven't tried it on concrete, only on bricks and it did great job. If I have to guess - I would say "yes" but first try it on a small patch away from the main focal point. Good luck.

My husband said for concrete, you should drill a hole first and use an insert that the screw actually screws into. We hung ours on the wall and we also had to search for a sturdy screw with a small enough head to fit. I must say it was worth the trouble, we have gotten a lot of compliments on our wall art. Good luck.

No ! It needs to bond to the surface of the concrete! Not ment to be applied over primed & painted concrete !

Maybe if you had the correct hardware. I think it is intended for wall surfaces.

Yep, provided you screw it into a wooden stud. Not sure about concrete, and it will definitely pull right out of dry wall, so get a stud-finder and go to town.

Yes, it works great on concrete. A contractor friend told me about it and I have used it ever since.

Yes, you could mount this to a concrete wall, however you may need different lag bolts to do so. I do not believe that the bolts that come with it would be sufficient to hold the pull up bar in concrete. As far as the unit itself goes, it is durably built and solid once it is installed. I have been using mine several times a week for over a year, and I expect to keep using it for many years to come. I have mine mounted to a plywood face that is attached to wall studs. It is mounted both through the plywood and the wall studs. I hope this helps.

As others have said, the hardware provided with these holds can only be used for wood, however, you can use bolt on holds for a concrete wall, you''ll just need different anchoring hardware. Another option is to use screw on holds (easier to install in concrete) but they won't be movable. I found these "how tos" for building a climbing wall very helpful: http://www.atomikclimbingholds.com/how-to

The answer using topcon screws is right on..If you cheat and use toggle bolts thru plaster only??? MAYBE only MAYBE.. The topcon,s into the concrete are 100%.Again if you can find the strips the wall board is hanging on ?? That would work if your screws don't push the strips off the concrete..IE screw length is critical..

It is not necessary to mount this into studs on your concrete wall. However, you will need to make sure you purchase the correct mounting hardware for your application.

I don't see why not. The only issue you might have is keeping them in place, assuming there isn't some sort of edging on the sides of the sidewalk. I used it in the landing of a concrete stairwell at basement level, so it's right against the walls. Good luck!

I never tried concrete- It is good at electrical or metal detection though so it will likely find rebar in the concrete for you to avoid. It has a harder time with walls in contemporary houses that have massive amounts of wood in the walls but good in standard construction. Hope this helps.

My applications for this product have always been through concrete walls. I believe that if you just use the outer portion of the door it would work for you.

Smooth would be best... My walls are concrete so they are not as smooth as a Sheetrock wall but mine stick just fine... If your walls are very bumpy with sharp bumps then I would not suggest this... If smooth textured bumps then you may get an okay result it will just take a bit of time to get the lettering to sit into all the high and lows of the texture... Hope this is helpful...

I only used it on painted drywall. It works well until there's too much moisture on the wall.

Yes, using concrete screws anchors. You will need to drill into the wall using the appropriate drill and then put a contrete anchor into the hole to accept the screw. Not that complicated.
