Has anybody tried hanging this rack on drywall with anchors? Assuming rack can hold 18 glasses would it be safe to hang it on a drywall?

Probably depends on the weight of glasses and the amount of use - I anchored mine into wood so cannot really say.

I have hung as many as 18 items on mine, and have never had a problem with it.I Love mine.

We hang 2 heavy bath towels most of the time. Not knowing how many, nor how heavy your medals are, I just have to say that when you install the rack, be sure it's attached to at least one wall stud.

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.

It depends entirely on the hardware you use to install it. We chose a heavy duty eye hook and screwed it into the ceiling studs, the chain provided is certainly strong enough, I could do pull ups on the rack. If you use tiny hooks and do not anchor them into a stud, I wouldn't hang much more than a mug on it. I love my rack, and it's loaded.

The rack comes with heavy duty ziptie anchors. Im sure if you ask at your local hardware store they can suggest what is best for your walls.

The mount comes with two anchors. I hung a 32 with it not on studs. I would be very careful to make sure you get the drill bit size correct for the anchors. If the drill holes are too large you could have problems. I use this mount every day. I am very happy with it.

They show it in a four high configuration here, http://www.momastore.org/museum/moma/ProductDisplay_Houdini-Wine-Rack_10451_10001_46151_-1_26669_11520 , and if you have shelf on each side that should provide support to keep it from falling. I say Go For it!

These are great hangers. We bought eight of them and they are mounted in two by sixes underneath the dry wall. You could used these but would need Molly's if hanging heavy things. Carol

well i put up 405 pounds and it held up perfectly. but i do recommend that you anchor bolt the squat rack, because every time i slam the weights on the squat, it tends to move. if its against a hard sturdy wall then your good but if you have it out side, where there is no wall, then anchoring will be the best idea. i hope i answered your question.

Yes, I anchored it to the drywall. I was concerned that it would flex. It seems plenty strong from a weight on the shelf stand point.

To work, the rack must be mounted securely--which means using screws. Mine is mounted to a wooden cabinet, just like others I have had. I have never mounted one on a wall.

It simply has 4 holes for screws (and comes with them) on the back of it. They're 12 inches apart, so I had to screw another board to my wall to hit studs, then mount the glass rack onto that piece of wood. It's a good glass rack overall and can fit more glasses than most you see for sale.

Yes I mounted mine in dry walk using 3 50lb capacity drywall anchors but I built my own brackets.

My studs did not line up well either since I mounted mine in corner of garage. I did not use drywall anchors though; I build a frame using 1x6's which I think worked very well. It is super sturdy, and I wasn't worried about seeing the wood mounted on the wall since it was the garage. I have pictures of how I did it, so if you want to see them, just let me know. My email is jshook12@yahoo.com Good luck!

The anchors are doing just fine for both my shelves. I have one in my wife's and my closet and that thing is full. No issues. My sons closet shelves are half full but it can take the abuse that a 3 year old can throw at it including him climbing and playing on it.Hope that helps.

Good Question. I have 3 pans 3 pots two strainers and some utensils hanging from mine. I feel it's all do do with a good wall mount and it will hold as much as the wall mount will (within reason). Try to anchor it from studs (Use a stud finder to determine where the wood is) and use decent wood screws (deep), make sure they will fit through the holes on the rack. I actually used Dry Wall plugs in the absence of available studs and all is good. If unsure contact a Handy person to help out.
