How did you secure this to the ceiling, drywall screws that expand into drywall or just standard screws?

Standard drywall screws. I believe they were 3" in length. I also used a washer to make sure the head did not push through the hole.

I mounted a 1x6 to the ceiling (white to match), making sure it was hitting studs, then just used wood screws for the hoist points. Doing that will also allow you to more easily measure where the hoists go by measuring prior to mounting the board to the ceiling (I figured this out afterward).

There are specific instructions to follow but either way they want it installed directly into the ceiling joist or a 2x4 wood that is attached to the ceiling joist. It must be installed into wood.

you can buy anchors from home depot or use a stud finder to find the rafters/spanners in the ceiling. EZ-Anchor is the brand I use for drywall screw anchors and you can use the 75 lbs or 100 lbs screw anchors and that should do it. This pulley system can't handle that much weight anyways. My friend and I actually used 2 of these pulleys to hoist up a 100 lb or so foosball table. Works well and it's secure enough (especially if you use a strap to wrap it around.

I secured it with lag bolts, thru the drywall into the rafters. Dry wall screws into expander things won't hold that much weight. One thing to be careful of and that is if you use lag srews (bolts)be sure they are long enough and that you hit the center of the rafter. I made that mistake and after awhile it fell down for me, with the bike on it. I put the hoist on a 2x4 and screwed that to the ceiling. Anymore questions I hope I can help.

you must use anchors designed for plaster - like tapcon or others. product comes with Self Drilling Drywall Anchors and Screws

I used a "paint pole extension", the kind that you would use when you are going to paint a ceiling. It is a standard size and it fit perfectly.

Screw it into the ceiling that is what I did and it works perfectly! If you stick it with adhesive it can fall & break I think :)

If mounting on drywall then use drywall anchors, if in wood then you can use screws enclosed with towel bar

I used the crews that came with it. I was lucky to find a stud and attached it directly to the stud by going thriugh the drywall.

Just like it would to a wall. Find the studs in the ceiling and put the screws in.

We mounted ours with plastic anchors and screws. Our assumption was that the tape would damage the drywall.

you make the hole and then you push the back of it into the ceiling, It clips onto the drywall and forms a tight seal. they dont sit on top of the ceiling. There wouldn't be a way to mount them that way

You can use the screw/hooks into a stud, these come with the rack. If installing to dry wall you will need toggle bolts not supplied.

I used my own wood screws to mount it to the floor and drywall screws to mount it to the wall. I gad no issues.

A regular 2 inch nail will work. I used draw wall screws so I knew it would be extra secure.

Attach provided bracket to ceiling (or wall) with 2 screws, and alarm mounts to bracket by rotating into mount

I had no luck with that. I tried positioning them around the screws on our ceiling vents and one fell off within 30 minutes and I never had any luck keeping them up.

I used and recommend anchors in drywall. The included ones that came with the block were nice beefy ones and I used them. I have to think screws alone into drywall would work loose over time. If you have any wobble after the install you could tighten the screws a bit more into the anchors until the final install is flush and firm to the wall. This mounts by slots on the back of the block sliding onto the screw heads so you control how tight the install is to the wall.

Drilled a pilot hole through the thick ends- then screwed them in. For the ceiling- there is quite a bit of weight- so it might be difficult- the middle slats would be hard to screw though without breaking them.

Chris, they were easy to mount. I just used one drywall size screw. You can also mount it aiming slightly left or right.
