Is stud mounting needed
513590
It depends. I used studs for my heavier bass guitars but not for my Hofner hollow body bass, mandolin, violin, and acoustic guitars. It does come with mounting hardware for drywall mounting but it's kind of cheap. If you were to go that route, buy some decent moly bolts and you'll be fine.

No, as long as you use the sheetrock Molly screws that they send. They should be able to hold the weight of the guitar very well.

I would recommend stud mount depending on weight of guitar. The mounting holes are at 12:00 and 6:00. If you have normal density drywall you would be fine with moly bolts thru drywall. Just using drywall screws may not be enough

There are two screw types in the package, one for stud mount and one for drywall. I used stud mounts to avoid the larger hole required for the other.

Hi, yes, normal mounting requires a swivel stud for mounting. If your firearm doesn't have a swivel stud you can purchase a pair and install them yourself, they aren't difficult. Check YouTube, there are a few instruction videos. Hope this helps.

Yes. You will need a couple bolts to mount depending upon your application.

We had a professional come and mount ours. I believe he had to find a stud to mount it to.

I mounted mine to drywall using a 100lb wall anchor. Bit of overkill but never have to worry about something going wrong. A stud would work perfect as well. The rubber feet work great to make a nice secure and sturdy base against the wall.

Yes. My grandpa was a master carpenter and I remember that he once mounted something on brick for us. I don't think he even had to find a stud, he just drilled holes into the brick, inserted those plastic reinforcement thingies, are those these "anchors" everyone keeps mentioning? Anyway, these provide a surface screws can bite into, and screwed whatever it was onto the wall that way! :-) You will most likely need a masonry bit for your drill to drill the holes. Sounds like you'll have a cool looking set-up when you are finished! Good luck! :-)

NO! The screws supporting the rack have to be mounted well above the center of gravity or the excess load will be placed on the rack instead of transferring that load to the stud in your wall.

The speaker has a bit of a recessed lip that holds the unit in place and tabs that lock in behind the wall board as you tighten the screws. I believe you can get fairly close to the stud, if you rotate the speaker so the tabs have room to attach to the wall or ceiling. I would stay a 1/2 away from a stud to be safe.

I attached mine under a suspended kichen cabinet. Yes to your question if you screw to a stud.

We had to mount ours Into only one stuf because our house is so old. It doesn't seem to be an issue, I suggest at least one stud though. My husband put it up in about a Half hour

Most definitely studs. However, Since it did not line up with the studs for me. I ran a 1 x 4 across, both the top and bottom and secured into the studs. Then I mounted the rack onto the 1 x 4.Worked just fine.

You don't need studs, but use Wingit hollow wall anchors that are rated up to 300 lbs. You can find a kit with a ceramic drill bit to drill the holes and then use these anchors. I have installed three of these grab bars and they are as secure as if mounted on studs. Search for Wingit online and you'll find video explaining how they work and are installed.

Yes. mounting on two metal studs will be fine. Three studs are preferable. Use toggle or snap toggle bolts rated to hold the appropriate amount of weight. Most 3/16" snap toggle bolts will hold over 200 lbs. 1/4" bolts are recommended. Use a third set of bolts in the drywall where there is no stud for added support. See this video for snap toggle bolts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC1ZuxuZ2PU

Yes sort of. It can be mounted using only one stud. Becasue of where I wanted to put it on the wall it would not be centered with two studs. It gives you an option to mount with just one stud. Check the Omnimont website for directions. It was in the directions.

Yes. You need to have sufficient anchoring points on the surface to be mounted to. 46" has significant weight and as a result anchoring to studs is highly recommended.

I have the same wall mount. I have mine set up for two studs, although if necessary there holes in the center if I wanted to set it up for just one stud. I chose the 2 stud option to be safe.
