Can this be nailed to studs rather than glued in?

I don't think that would be a good idea. I think it would crack. More chance of leakage too.

I screwed mine to a stud on one side.I would not glue a heater in place.You could toggle bolt it in if not near a stud.Mine looks great!

If you nail the vinyl will tend to pucker and you will get water leakage behind the surround, I would strongly recommend glue.

That's a tricky question to answer. First off, the product is flimsy, so it will need a good wall surface behind it to support it. It CANNOT go over bare studs. Second, I'm assuming you will want this in a shower, so unless you want rusty nail or screws within few weeks, I wouldn't allow any nail or screw to show. Nevertheless, if this is just going up in a shower that you have in the barn for where you wash the dogs and animals, nailing it would probably work.

Make sure that at least one of the fasteners on each end is mounted to a stud.

Yes, you can use double sided tape or screw it in. Hopefully you have room to mount it on a flat surface as that would be better. Hope that helps.

I wouldn't know how.....definitely needs to be "anchored" somehow. If the screws in the wall, are left protruding far enough to make for easy on and off, it could be removed/replaced as desired...but could be a pain in the "you know what". LOL

I would not just hang it with nails, I would use some clips, securely fastened, it is not light weight.

Yes, but you are not going to have as secure of a mount on the stud. The mounting holes are oriented vertically but there are 2 rows. In the vertical position you get 3 large holes for the large screws, in the horizontal position you would only have 2 holes unless you modified it.

No, there should be predrilled holes, even if they are hard to see. Just twist the provided studs into those holes

It is suggested to mount it on studs but it is not really that heavy. I like to hit at least one stud. It can be mounted in any different ways and it can be centered.

You could mount to drywall, but I would use toggle bolts instead of anchors. If you will be hanging something fairly heavy, like a ladder, and putting it up and down fairly often, then you should definitely screw into studs. I have three mounted to studs and they work fine.

No. The studs are held in steel bases and the bases are bonded into the rubber.

Glueing is not an option with this item unless you use some addition bracket you can glue onto tile with at base to screw on the shelf brackets to.

I have it attached to a regular metal bed frame. You would have to bolt it to a platform, but it looks like it could be done.

It may be possible with a special drill bit. I have seen it done, but not specifically with this one.

You can use adhesive but that didn't work for me. There are holes for screws, which is what I used.

It's best of you put it into a stud. Putting anything into drywall only can be pulled out easy. Like when you hang a picture and its not in a stud, you can move the nail in and out with your hand. I put mine on a porch so it was mounted on a wooden beam.

Yes, but it isn't designed to perform that function as well as it should/could have been. My concern would be how long it will stay attached to the wall. That said, I can't see any reason you couldn't anchor it to the wall with some select screws/bolts, maybe a bracket or something of that nature.

As long as the stud has nails in it. It contains a magnet, which allow it to be drawn to metal.
