Things to consider before you start:

The holds have two different types of holes: 10mm bolt holes and/or 5mm screw holes. The screws we use areTurbo TX 5mm wide wood screws. The length of the screws varies depending on the depth of the stone hold. The bolts need to be 10mm Socket Head Cap, the depth also various depending on the hold.

                           

Mounting:

You can mount a hold above a doorframe on a wooden surface, masonry surface or within a door frame or you can build a freestanding frame or an off-the-wall frame. Mounting the motherboard is pretty much the same. The fingerboard is not treated so we don't recommend fixing it outdoors where it would be exposed to weather. You want to have room to hang, so against a flat wall is not ideal. You want some space above the fingerboard – your head goes above it when you do a pull-up Ideal height is just above head height. Find out what kind of material your mounting surface is. Based on the surface, decide what kind of fixings you need – consult a local hardware store if you don’t know.
