Would someone explain how this attaches to the wall? I'm assuming it does all right on drywall, since that's what most people have.

Yes it will attach to drywall with a through the wall anchor. They are rated by capacity and you can find them at hardware stores or home depot. You need to make certain that you have a level line where you want the bottom of the microwave to be and then use each of the wall brackets as a pattern to mark the location where the brackets will attach to the wall. Then you put the female part of the anchor into a hole you drill into the wall until it is flush with the drywall. Then place the bracket so that the hole in the bracket lines up with the anchor in the wall and screw the screw into the anchor. Keep tightening the screw all the way as this is what expands the anchor behind the wall so it will not pull out.

Simple with drywall screws, no need for anchors. Our oven has been up on these brackets now for 6 months without any incident. HTH

Mine is installed using only drywall anchors (100 lb), but I have my TV mounted to the wall above the unit, not standing on the unit. So the anchors only have to hold up the unit itself, and the devices I put on it. No issues so far.

Hi, that's a good question and I don't have an answer. I use it free standing, I have not tried to hang it. I think to hang it on a wall you might have to turn it upside down but where would you attach it. If you find an answer let me know, sorry I could not be helpful.

You install the plastic holder by screwing it into the wall with either wood screws into wall studs, the best and probably strongest method of fastening or by using wall anchors to fasten to drywall, which is not the best way since the stress over time tends to loosen the drywall fasteners. If you have no choice but to use the drywall anchor method try using an adhesive as well to hold the plastic against the drywall. I would recommend the adhesive be a polyurethane type construction adhesive, which typically comes in a tube suitable for a caulking gun.

My house has a sheetrock textured wall and the tape works very well on it. Infact, I needed it for only one hook and I havent used the tape again since then. It attaches so well !!!

I'm using it to hold a 40" Visio TV without any problem. The key is to be sure that you sink mounting screws into studs and don't rely on just drywall to support the weight. The instructions say to screw all four corners into studs. That's fine, if that places the TV where you want it on the wall. It didn't for me. So, I positioned the mount where I wanted it and sunk two lag screws through slots in the mount directly into the center of a stud. I then used screws fastened into drywall anchors at the four corners. Works fine. The two stud-mounted lag screws provide way more than enough strength to support the weight of the TV and the drywall anchors prevent any twisting torque from being exerted.

I have mine mounted on the wall. Easy install. There are instructions as to where to mount it with the item.

It is not permanently attached to the wall. It stays on the wall because of what I would call compression and friction. One side of the rod has a mount that is adjustable and you simply turn it to make it fit the size of your shower/bath.

If you follow the drywall screws up and down the wall in a straight line you will see where they all line up vertically, where the drywall was screwed to the wood stud. It works like a charm for me, I do home theater installs and I wouldn't use another stud finder. I guess you would have to try it for yourself.

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.

Hmmm, never thought of that. I would not recommend it for several reasons the biggest being the physics of the weight versus the drywall.

We have not tried to attach it to a wall. We move the 2 we have around to different places as needed.

It comes off but keep in mind it's strong! it's meant to hold and stick so it's a little work to get it off which is what it is supposed to do. I have never tried it on a wall, I am not sure if the paint will come off with it. I am a big fan of this tape, I tried everything else and this is the only one that works. It's and apartment, they expect some ware and tear, nail holes from hanging pics and re paining is normal for them so I don't think It's an issue if the paint comes off. The point is you need to hang a picture ledge. No clue what that is I'm thinking small narrow shelf so you can place pics on it. I think your good to go, this tape should hold that and it has always come off for me when I needed to remove it. I never used it on a wall though but I think your good if you do not want to attach the ledge with small nails or better yet wood screws in the wall studs that would be the best most secure solution. If holes in the wall are the issue then tape is your only alternative, this is the tape!!!! Good luck! did that help or confuse you more? Hop it helped. Bottom line, not sure how big this ledge is but I would go for it. You wont find another tape that will do it except this one, that I know, been there done that. Go for it!

I used screws to mount it. I decided to go the extra mile and first I cut a piece of plywood a little larger than the base of the wall organizer and mounted the plywood to the wall first. It was a drywall wall, and I wanted to be able to screw the plywood to the studs behind the drywall, and not just into the drywall alone. Then I screwed the wall organizer to the plywood. It may not be necessary to do that, but this way, I know it will never come loose or pull away from the wall. I personally would not trust double stick tape for something like this.

It attaches with a screw on both the piece that goes on the door and the wall. I use mine in my RV and it works great.

i drilled holes in the drywall then used dry wall anchors. Then just screwed in the screws to hold it to the wall. Does that answer your question?

This has to attached to a stud- it's too heavy for drywall and anchors. I hope this helps.
