Was anyone's wall plate different from the wall plate shown in the assembly instructions? My wall plate has is smaller and has 6 holes - the instructions show a wall plate with 7. Is it ok to put it up? I assume so...

Good you asked! I ordered these as well and returned them for the same reasons. I also gave this product a ONE, here is my review: I just ordered 4 of these but when the products arrived I was shocked to see that the most important part, the metal plate that attaches to the wall, was the wrong one as depicted in the instruction manual! The instruction manual shows a metal wall plate (3" x 8") with 3 rows of screws: top row, middle row, and bottom row (3 screws per row), but the one I actually got in all 4 boxes was a square shaped metal wall plate (3" x 3") with only 2 rows of screw holes (top and bottom). This is incredibly deficient structurally and I would not even attempt to install this product with using only 2 screw holes instead of 3 holes to my wall joist. Amazon is refunding me and I asked them to take this product down until they resolved this major problem with this product. Instead I got a 2 shelf model that I was happy with: AVF ES250B-T Wall Mounted AV Component Shelving System with 2 Adjustable Tempered Glass Shelves -Black

My studs did not line up well either since I mounted mine in corner of garage. I did not use drywall anchors though; I build a frame using 1x6's which I think worked very well. It is super sturdy, and I wasn't worried about seeing the wood mounted on the wall since it was the garage. I have pictures of how I did it, so if you want to see them, just let me know. My email is jshook12@yahoo.com Good luck!

I would check with a professional carpenter if you have or will be putting in a wall unit. It's a different project from what I took on as a DIY.

I am not sure what you are asking about the screw holes what does "one in a par inside to inside" mean? And is this something that can be seen while plate is mounted ie I can't take it off the wall at this point

mine did not come assembled at all or have a template. it was not hard to install at all though. and mine sticks about 5inches from the wall. its beautiful and great quality.

There is a template with the kit that you should use. Mine is installed through the wall so you need to get the wall kit. The only installation issues we had was the use of the 8 or 10" bolt that had to have the drilled holes PERFECTLY aligned. We ended just using normal screws and screwed to the structure on the inside and outside. Works perfectly. Don't know how I managed without this door before. I LOVE IT!

The wallplate is 24" so it won't span 2 stud spaces (assuming studs @ 16" oc). I seriously doubt that you will be able to purchase just the wallplate. You could buy a complete assembly and just use the wallplate, but I don't think that is necessary. If you get a good solid screw connection to the center stud at the top and bottom of the wallplate, and use good quality toggle bolts at the ends of the wallplate into the drywall, that will be sufficient to carry the weight of a 50" TV. The connection to the stud will carry the weight of the TV; the toggle bolts will hold the wallplate tight to the wall at the ends.

We did but we had to create a wooden jamb the depth of the wall and then we screwed the faces to each side. No problem for us, we are professional construction people with a full woodworking shop, but other people may not have this capability. There are some models you can buy the wall extension for, just not the one that is this small. Hope this helps. :)

I installed mine on a wall with drywall; however, placed 2x10's over the drywall so I could anchor the 2x10s to the studs behind the drywall, then the pull-up bar to the 2x10s. Would post a picture, but don't think Amazon would allow. Email at suitkins@gmail.com if you want a picture of it.

It comes in five pieces.The main piece is the section with the door. Then there is the left and right side that you'll add to the door piece. You could stop there if that's big enough and these two side pieces are also by a few inches. If this is still not long enough then you can add the additional two extra sides. Those too can be adjuasted a few inches also. Then, there are some screws that screw into the gate, on both sides and the top and bottom and these screws will fit into the little bracket/screw holders you install on the wall. *You mention that your gate is only 61", I hope you rec'd all five pieces.

When I do this type of installation without directions I try to match the plastic insert that first goes into the wall and then use the two bits smaller for a tighter fit (you may crush the plastic if not careful) or use one drill bits smaller than the plastic insert so the fit is closer to the size. Then Once you have spaced all your inserts in your wall (they are level and correspond with the holes of the item going on the wall, Line up the item on the wall and hand screw in 80% of he way until you have all screws attaching the item to the wall. Then tighten down all screws until the wall mount is secure. I hope that helped you some.

it goes together very easy and only two holes for mounting to the wall. I really like mine keeps things organized. hope this helps you.

The plate that attaches to the wall/armoir is in two pieces; unless you get creative you can't attach it in the center. I recommend visiting a retail store to locate a bracket that you can measure.

You can read my review of this issue from Oct 11th. But I copied it below for your reference.Ok here is the deal...The back wall plate is only 19.5 inches wide, so there is no way that this mount will fit 24in studs.Now I did notice that the model number on the package said Ml-310B.... Not Ml-310B24 as listed in the product description. So in all fairness, I think some sellers are unintentionally attaching their inventory to the wrong product number. This is why there are some customers complaining that it did not fit their 24in studs and others saying it did. Anyways I'm returning mine for a full refund and will try ordering from a different website/seller all together. You can read my review of this issue from Oct 11th.
