Step 1

Find Installation Location between Studs:

Once a desired location has been chosen, the next step is to make sure there is no electric, plumbing or heat

ducts in your way.

• Electric: Make sure there are no electric outlets in the area that has been chosen.

Check the opposite side of the wall as well; this may be in an adjacent room.

• Plumbing: The plumbing is usually confined to the space behind a toilet or behind the tub/shower faucet.

• Heating ducts: They are usually located in the floors out of the way, but visually check the walls and

adjacent rooms for registers.

Once you are fairly certain there is no electric, plumbing or heating ducts in your way find a location between

studs.

There are many different methods to finding the area between studs:

1. Using an Electronic Stud Finder (easiest)

2. Knocking on the drywall (sound differences)

3. Hammer and a small nail

Only method three will be explained (hammer and a small nail). Level your pattern in the chosen area and then

tape it to the wall (see fig.1). Start in the middle of the pattern and drive a small nail through the drywall in a

horizontal line every ½”or until you reach both edges of the pattern. Stop if you hit a stud (see fig. 1). If no stud

was hit move to step 2. If a stud was hit move your pattern cut edge to the last previous hole where a stud was not

hit (see fig. 2).
