1B: Hidden wall or ceiling blocking
The use of an electronic stud finder is
recommended to find blocking that aligns
with the mounting holes of the handle.
Install additional blocking as needed to
ensure all monkey bars are completely
backed by blocking.
Before installation can begin, the install
location must be professionally inspected
and prepared with structural support as
outlined in options 1A, 1B or 1C. Choose the
option that best represents your structural
situation and desired aesthetic. User safety is
top priority. Review all warnings on page 6
before continuing!
1A: Hidden wall studs and ceiling joists
with 16" OC (on center) spacing
The use of an electronic stud nder is
recommended to nd studs or joists that
align with the mounting holes of the handle.
If any of the holes are not in alignment with
studs or joists, install hidden blocking (step
1B) or external blocking (step 1C) in your
desired location.
1C: External studs or blocking
If hidden structural elements cannot be
used, this is an easy option to make sure the
monkey bars have ample support and an
accessible mounting surface for the entire
line of monkey bars. You must ensure these
external studs are correctly mounted to the
studs or joists behind your wall or ceiling
before continuing with this option.

Once the structural support described in
Step 1 has been established, hold the handle
in desired location and mark the center of
each mounting hole location with a pencil.
A bubble level can be used during this step
to ensure straightness.
See Rad Tip ➀ on page 7 about aligning
multiple monkey bars.
Use a ⁄" drill bit to create a pilot hole at
least 1½"deep in the center of the mounting
location before installing lag screws.
Failure to properly drill pilot holes may split
the stud or blocking, resulting in major
structural rework to your wall and monkey
bar project.
Using a socket wrench with a ½" socket,
install a washer and lag screw through each
mounting hole. Do not fully tighten until
each lag screw is in place. Once lag screws
are installed, fully tighten each, checking for
solid engagement between the lag screw
and the blocking or stud/joist.
Inspect your install; be sure each fastener
is securely installed, and check for level.
Repeat all installation steps for additional
handles.
It’s worth mentioning again: safety is priority
one. Read all warnings and rad tips, double
check your work before allowing anyone to
begin climbing.
After you are confident the installation is
complete, stand back and revel in your
childlike glory! You just gained the envy
of third graders everywhere and became
jungle gym royalty.

Installation Steps

Warnings
1.1 Monkey bar
hardware must be
correctly installed into
studs, blocking, or
ceiling joists. Failure
to do so may result
in sagging product,
falling objects, or
serious injury. We take
safety seriously. Please
ensure your installation
follows all structural
requirements.
2.1 Wood or composite
sheeting is NOT
structural, and is not
sucient as a handle
mounting surface.
All blocking must be
professionally secured
to permanent wall
studs or ceiling joists.
Provided lag screw
fastener threads must
have at least 1 full
inch of solid thread
engagement into studs
or blocking to avoid
accidental pull out.
3.1 Randle monkey
bars should never be
used without adequate
padding beneath them.
A fall from any distance
can be hazardous or
deadly. Pad thickness
should correspond to
weight, height, and
build of the user, and
the recommendations
of the pad manufacturer
should be strictly
followed. Every eort
to maintain safety
should be considered
when children are the
intended users. Distance
to safety pad should
never exceed 7 feet.
4.1 This product
contains chemicals
known to the State
of California to cause
cancer and birth defects
or other reproductive
harm. Don't eat these
monkey bars. If you live
outside of California,
do whatever you
want. For more boring
information, visit www.

number of monkey bars.
Each monkey bar has
two fastener locations,
2⁄" apart. 12"-14"
