1 1/2" deep, see Figure 7 above.

the self tapping screws.
Drywall Surfaces
1. Locate the best mounting location in the ceiling or
wall. Using the wall plate as a template, mark the hole
positions on the mounting surface. For in-wall
applications, position the mounting holes in a vertical
pattern, see Figure 8 on the next page.
2. Drill holes in the drywall using a 5/16" drill bit.
3. Once the holes are drilled, insert the alligator anchor
into the holes. Make sure the anchor is flush with the
wall and/or ceiling surface, see Figure 8 on the next
page.
