The unistrut frame of the ETS-LT is designed for stud spacing of 16 inches on centers. For unconventional stud
spacing, a solid / secure mounting surface must be provided for the installation of the frame.
APPLICATIONS USING WOOD STUDS
Install the ETS-LT using a minimum of (2) 3/16” lag screws and washers (provided by others). Ensure the lag screws are
long enough to penetrate the wood stud a minimum of 2 inch. Ensure the lag screws are installed securely in the studs.
1 Locate the studs in the general area of the ETS-LT installation.
2 Center the ETS-LT assembly on the stud centers,
3 Level the ETS-LT, while maintaining it’s center with the studs and use a pencil to mark the location of the
mounting lag screws.
4 Set the ETS-LT assembly down on the floor. Drill a 1/4” diameter by 2” deep hole in the center of each mark.
5 Reposition the ETS-LT assembly on the wall and align with the newly drilled holes. Insert the lag screws and
washers through the unistrut frame into the holes and loosely tighten.
6 Level the ETS-LT assembly and tighten the lag screws making sure not to over-tighten to avoid damaging
drywall or plaster.
APPLICATIONS USING METAL STUDS
Install the ETS-LT using a minimum of (2) 3/16” toggle bolts and washers (provided by others).
1 Locate the studs in the general area of the ETS-LT installation.
2 Center the ETS-LT assembly on the stud centers,
3 Level the ETS-LT, while maintaining it’s center with the studs and use a pencil to mark the location of the
mounting lag screws.
4 Set the EST-LT assembly down on the floor. Drill the required clearance hole for the toggle bolts.
5 Reposition the EST-LT assembly on the wall and align with the newly drilled holes. Insert the toggle bolts and
washers through the unistrut frame into the holes and loosely tighten.
6 Level the ETS-LT assembly and tighten the toggle bolts making sure not to over-tighten to avoid damaging
drywall or plaster.
APPLICATIONS WITH SOLID WALLS
When installing the ETS-LT assembly on solid walls (rock, concrete, brick, cinder block, etc.) use a minimum of (2)
anchors (double expansion shields) and bolts with washers (provided by others).
1 Locate the general area for installing the ETS-LT assembly.
2 Place the ETS-LT assembly against the wall and ensure it is level. Mark the location of the mounting bolts
through the unistrut frame onto the wall.
3 Set the EST-LT assembly on the floor. Drill the required clearance hole for the anchors used. Ensure depth of
the holes is adequate for the anchors. The anchors should be flush or slightly recessed in the drilled holes.
4 Reposition the ETS-LT assembly on the wall and align the unistrut frame with the anchors. Insert the bolts and
washers through the unistrut frame threading into the anchors. Loosely tighten the bolts.
5 Level the ETS-LT assembly and tighten the bolts securely.
