methods:
A. Stud finder—a magnetic device which
locates nails.
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the
mounting surface to find a solid sound.
This will indicate a stud location.
After locating the stud(s), find the center by

of the stud. Then place a mark halfway between
the edges. The center of any adjacent studs should
be 16" or 24" from this mark.
Draw a line down the center of the studs.
