How does the hook install into the ceiling? I'm hoping to avoid drilling holes in the ceiling of a rental house.

You will have to drill a hole in the ceiling to attach the hook. The lamp comes with a molly screw. When you screw it into the ceiling, it has "wings" which expand inside the hole to hold it firmly in place.

You have to make a hole. The lamp comes with a "molley" hook. You have to make a hole and the "molley" part spreads out inside the ceiling so the hook does not come out. Thus it can hold heavy items. The lamp is not heavy but you want to be sure that it doesn't pull out and fall on someone!

It slips under the edge of the siding and hooks against the siding. They work great. I have ever hung anything from the ceiling with them.

It has four holes on the inside and you just drill it to the wall, preferably into the wall studs. It's not the easiest or best design for hanging that's for sure.

Take your drill and insert an appropriate drill bit to a size slightly smaller than the wood bolt that came with the hanger. Mark the holes on your beam in the ceiling. Drill your holes. Now find the right socket and use a socket wrench to tighten the bolt. If you have the right extension, it can be inserted in your drill and then you can power the bolt in. No disrespect intended, but if you refer to a Phillips head or a slotted head on a standard screw as diverts, I would highly recommend that you find someone handier than yourself to mount your heavy bag. I am concerned that you might injure yourself if you might it improperly. Take your drill and insert an appropriate drill bit to a size slightly smaller than the wood bolt that came with the hanger.

Mine did not come with a hook. Instead, I attached the three wires to a small hook that screwed into my ceiling. It worked out very well and has a low profile at its juncture (though the baskets do stand out, obviously). It's a great size and quality for the price.

Yes you can screw it into the ceiling but I did not so i can not speak on its durability once secured in place.

I make no guarantees, but I was able to slowly bend mine at two different sections to get it into the top of the water heater and clear the ceiling, and then gently bend it back straight to be able to screw it into place. Suggest you go slowly and carefully. It can be done.

It pressure fits against the ceiling. You can screw it in, but it is not necessary. My husband has used his without screwing it in for over 3 years, and he is a big boy that really pulls on it to get himself up from a laying position. It makes the difference in the world!

You have to install a small hook in the ceiling. I myself purchased a really nice white one. I suggest putting in a mount first so the hook can hold better.

You can hang it from the ceiling, you just need to use a screw hook that is screwed into the joist (It must be screwed securely into the joist -- you have to first drill a pilot hole that is smaller than the screw). The screw hook costs around $3.00.

The screw in anchors go into the ground if you need them. Nails o no know but I use mine with a deck and just let it hang over an works great. Keeps temp down pretty good.

If mounting to the ceiling, I would install a 3/4inch piece of plywood 12 x 12 inches and I would anchor the mounting bracket to the 3/4inch plywood and the ceiling using 3 1/2 inch bolts or wood screws.I hope this helps? Good Luck!

Yes. You will most likely need to make a hole in the ceiling. I drive a screw into the ceiling, then tied a string to the net and the screw.

I drilled into the joists in the ceiling. It was a little tricky finding them...I had to get up into the attic. I finally straightened a hanger and poked it through one of the holes I made so I could orient myself to exactly where i was whether in the kitchen looking up or in the attic looking down. I was surprised to discover they were running the opposite direction than I thought. (By the way, a stud finder didn't work in my ceiling.) But once I drilled into the joists and installed sturdy hooks, it was no problem. It has been hanging securely for months.

You use a drill to make a hole, then sink in a plastic wall anchor. You then screw in a regular old hook into the wall anchor. If I recall correctly, the hook and anchor are included with the canopy. Took less than a minute.

It has a ring that attaches to a hook that you must screw into the ceiling. Not sure if the hook is included

Yes, it comes with 4 hooks that screw into the ceiling and 4 ties and 4 plastic things that go between the hook and ceiling. I have a slanted ceiling so also used fishing line to customize as the material is very light.
