Installation to Double Wood Stud Wall
Wall plate (A) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs.
Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down
each stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template. Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting
holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2"
(64 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (C) as shown.
Skip to step 2
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Install-
ers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.

Make sure that wall plate (A) is level, use it as a
template to mark four mounting holes. Drill four 1/4"
(6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5"
(64 mm). Insert anchors (D) in holes flush with wall as
shown in figure 1.2. Place wall plate over anchors and
secure with #14 x 2.5" screws (C). Level, then tighten
all fasteners.

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete
thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid
part of the block, generally 1" minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 specifica-
tions. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to
avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hard-
ware and components.

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly attached,
but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).•
Always attach concrete anchors directly to load-
bearing concrete.
• Never attach concrete anchors to concrete covered
with plaster, drywall, or other finishing material. If
mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a finish-
ing surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface must
be counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete
anchors do not pull away from concrete when tight-
ening screws. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8",
custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.

Using a stud finder, locate and mark the edges of the metal stud used in mounting this product. Use of an edge
to edge stud finder is highly recommended. Use a level to draw a level, vertical line down the center of the stud.
Level wall plate, and mark the center of the six mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud
centerlines. Drill two 1/2" holes through drywall and metal studs. NOTE: It may be necessary to drill 5/32" pilot
holes prior to drilling 1/2" holes. Install togglers (P) as shown in figure 1.3. Loosely fasten wall plate to wall using six
1/4-20 x 2-1/2" screws (N) and six 1/4" washers (O) as shown in figure 1.4. Level, hold, and then tighten all screws.

• Drywall must be 1/2" or thicker, and metal stud must be 24 gauge or thicker.
• Make sure that the wall will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and
components.
• Make sure that togglers are anchored into the center of the studs. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is highly
recommended.

Attaching adapter plate to screen with
VESA hole pattern:
Choose hole pattern and fasteners shown in detail 2 for
mounting screen with VESA mounting patterns. Hand thread
screws (F, G or H) through washers (J or O) and adapter

make at least three full turns into the mounting hole and fit
snug into place. Securely tighten screws.
• If screws don't get three complete turns in the screen
inserts or if screws bottom out and bracket is still
not tightly secured, damage may occur to screen or
