Installation to Double Wood Stud Wall
WARNING
• 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. Installers
are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
Wall plate (AA) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs.
1
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. The top mounting slot s should be located 6.2" (157.5 mm)
above the desired screen center as shown in figure 1.1. 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" (65 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (DD) as
shown in figure 1.2.
NOTE: Wall plate may be mounted up to 4" (102 mm) off center as shown in figure 1.1.
Skip to step 2 on page 7.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block
WARNING
• 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 specifications. 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 .
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
Make sure that wall plate (AA) is level, use it as a
1
template to mark four mounting holes. The top mounting
slots should be located 6.2" (157.5 mm) above the
desired screen center as shown in figure 1.1 page 5.
Drill four 1/4" (6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of
2.5" (64 mm). Insert anchors (EE) in holes flush with wall
as shown (right). Place wall plate over anchors and
secure with #14 x 2.5" screws (DD). Level, then tighten
all fasteners.
WARNING
• 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.).
WARNING
• Always attach concrete anchors directly to loadbearing concrete.
• Never attach concrete anchors to concrete covered
with plaster, drywall, or other finishing material. If
mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a finishing
surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface must be
counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete
anchors do not pull away from concrete when tightening screws. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8",
custom fasteners must be supplied by installer .

Installing Adapter Brackets
WARNING
• Tighten screws so adapter brackets are firmly attached. Do not tighten with excessive force. Overtightening can cause
stress damage to screws, greatly reducing their holding power and possibly causing screw heads to become
detached. Tighten to 40 in. • lb (4.5 N.M.) maximum torque.
• 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 product may fail.
To prevent scratching the screen, set a cloth on a flat, level surface that will support the weight of the screen. Place
2
screen face side down. If screen has knobs on the back, remove them to allow the adapter brackets to be attached.
Place adapter brackets (BB or CC) on back of screen, align to holes, and center on back of screen as shown below.
Attach the adapter brackets to the back of the screen using the appropriate combination of screws, multi-washers,
and spacers as shown in figure 2.1 or 2.2.
NOTE: Top and bottom holes of screen must always be used.
Verify that all holes are properly aligned, and then tighten screws using a phillip s screwdriver.
