Tools and Materials for Mounting to Solid Backing:

  • Employ #8 Pan Head screws suitable for your specific mounting material (Do Not use drywall or wood screws with a taper below the head).
  • Drill
  • 1/8” Drill bit
  • Extended Philips bit for your drill or a long screwdriver

Installation Process:

  1. Position your WAYMKR Mount on the wall at your desired gun location, ensuring the top edge of the back mounting plate is level.
  2. Mark hole locations with a pencil.
  3. Move the mount out of your way and drill the 1/4" holes for drywall anchors or 1/8" holes for solid backing.
  4. When using drywall anchors, lightly tap them into the drilled holes until flush with the drywall surface.
  5. Align the mount with your holes and install the screws. Avoid over-tightening, as it may weaken the anchor point.
  6. Mount your gun, enjoy a job well done, and take a photo and tag us in your social media post showing off your mount!
