The Shampoo Shelf Grab Bar is capable of supporting up to 500 lbs., and its integrated drainage slots prevent water and soap buildup, ensuring a clean and dry surface. The 9-hole flanges, spaced on 16-inch centers, facilitate installation, and the included flange covers conceal mounting screws for a polished appearance. For installations where wall studs are not accessible, consider using Easy Mount Hollow Wall Anchors, which allow secure attachment without the need for studs. To install the Plus Series Shampoo Shelf Grab Bar, follow these steps: Select the Installation Location: Choose a suitable spot in your shower or bathroom where the shelf will be both functional and accessible. Ensure the location aligns with wall studs spaced 16 inches apart for support. Locate and Mark Wall Studs: Use a stud finder to identify the positions of the wall studs. Mark the stud locations with a pencil at the desired height for the shelf. Position the Shelf: Align the shelf’s 9-hole flanges with the marked stud locations, ensuring it is level. Mark the positions of the screw holes on the wall. Drill Pilot Holes: At the marked positions, drill pilot holes into the wall studs to facilitate screw installation. Attach the Shelf: Position the shelf against the wall, aligning the flanges with the pilot holes. Secure the shelf to the wall studs using the provided screws, tightening them firmly. Conceal Mounting Hardware: Slide the flange covers over the mounting flanges to hide the screws, giving the installation a clean and finished look. Verify Stability: Apply pressure to the shelf to ensure it is securely mounted and capable of supporting weight as intended.
