Can anyone tell me the width of the holes that the bolts go through? I need to mount this to a cement wall and don't want to have to buy another bit

Melissa, Sorry I have'nt replied sooner. Has your question been answered yet? I'm at work now but can take measurements tonight if you need them.

Mine is already mounted so its tough to measure, but it looks like the holes are 7/32".

The mounting holes are actually 1/4"x1" vertical slots spaced 6" apart on the bracket. Hope this answers you question.

Melissa, sorry, my daughters was installed by a company that does this for a living and it went into an interior wall. Good luck, they do work well though.

I dont know what size the actual studs are. The nut to attach the wires is a 13mm. Hope that gives you a general idea or is of some help.

I don't see why one couldn't mount this to any stud on any wall without requiring extra hardware. Use an impact driver to convenience sake. If you don't have one, I'd pre-drill the holes (making sure their diameter is only about 1/2 - 2/3 size of the lag bolt).

Standard drywall screws. I believe they were 3" in length. I also used a washer to make sure the head did not push through the hole.

1/2" bolts fit through the holes with enough clearance, holes are not perfect.Center to center is 1 7/16 to 1 1/2"

it fit into the regular rough-in which I think is 12 in. with out any problem. We measured from the wall to the center of the bolt and it was a tad over 12 in.

I'm not sure the diameter of what they sent, because I changed them out for black normal wood screws because they fit better and are longer. If you normal 5/8" drywall and you are trying to get atleast two of the screws in a stud the screws that they send with this will not be long enough. I hope that helps.

Just installed one today. Instructions call for and I used 3/16 inch bit for the included lag bolts. Worked great.

I don't know the exact size of the bolt holes, but they fit perfectly. I dont really want to remove the switch to measure. I am sure that you will not be disappointed.

4 vertical holes in one stud. For massive lag bolts with 9/16 hex. Top to bottom 15" HEAVY DUTYSuggest thin buffer between wall and mount.. less texture and sheetrock damage

I used a 3/8" bit for the through holes in the beam. The bolts are 3/8" so you have to tap them through with a hammer. I recommend that you use a drill with a built in bubble level in order to get a straight hole. That's a pretty long hole to drill by eye. Also you may have to do a lot of sanding on the 4x4's and 4x6 in order to get them into the brackets. Lumber dimensions vary even within each piece. I uses a 5" orbital sander and it still took a while. Good luck!

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.

The holes are right about 1/4" in diameter. I used torq headed (star) deck screws, screwed into a stud and they are very sturdy. Hope this helps.

Go down to your local hardware store and tell them what you are trying to do - they will point you towards the right hardware. Briefly, you're going to want a HSS (high speed steel) or a titanium carbon-coated drill bit and the right screws. Make sure you're not exceeding weight specs (for the mount OR your wall)

You should be fine using longer bolts. I would recommend pre-drilling first just to protect the stud. It's going to take enough abuse. I wouldn't use anything smaller then a 3" just because you will have a weak point with the sheetrock being between the stud and the bracket. Unless you cut out the sheetrock just big enough for the bracket...?

The total bolt length is 1-3/4" long (1-1/2" long from the bottom of the hex head to the end of threads) The diameter is 5/16 Hex head is 1/2" Hope this is of help to you. (They work great)

I think they were about 4" or so long (6 per shelf)...they are basically lag bolts. If you have a 12 volt or better screw gun, you can screw them right into the stud with the proper bit...
