Easy Hang Installation - Safety Top Track
Step 1. Position the Safety Top Track.
It is usually placed at ceiling or door height, but may be placed at any height.
Step 2 . Level the Safety Top Track:
a. Place the Safety Top Track at desired height, mark one hole in the middle, and
take the Safety Top Track down.
b. Begin drilling this hole with a 1/8"/3mm drill bit. If you hit wood,
continue drilling the entire length of the bit. If you hit the hollow part of
the wall, enlarge the hole with a 3/8"/10mm drill bit for the hollow wall
anchors.
c. Put the Safety Top Track up with one screw and tighten it enough to hold
the Safety Top Track against the wall.
d. To keep the Safety Top Track level while you mark all of the holes, place a
level on the bottom of the Safety Top Track and adjust it as required.
e. Take the Safety Top Track o of the wall.
S tep 3 . Drill all marked holes:
a. Drill holes with a 1/8"/3 mm drill bit, assuming you are going into
wood. If you hit wood, continue drilling the entire length of the bit.
b. If you hit the hollow part of the wall, mark those holes with an X,
reminding yourself you need to go back and drill a 3/8"/10 mm hole for
the hollow wall anchors.
c. To install a hollow wall anchor (dark blue), remove the screw from the
anchor. Tap the dark blue anchor into the 3/8"/10 mm hole in the hollow
part of the wall. Remove and discard the grey spacer.
Step 4. Install the Safety Top Track:
Put the Safety Top Track up and insert and tighten all the screws.

Step 3
Place Ventilated Shelf Brackets in the Hanging
Wall Band at the desired Shelf height (Fig. B).
Step 4
Place Ventilated Shelves over notches in the Ventilated Shelf Bracket. The end of the Shelf should extend
1/2"/10 mm past the side of the Bracket. Lock the shelf into place by pressing the middle
part down and toward the wall (Fig. D). To unlock the Shelf, lift the back out of the slot and pull
away from the wall. Snap the Rods into their Holders (Fig. E).
For the wood screws, discard the light blue anchor and use a #2 Phillips
head screwdriver bit and power drill to tighten the screw. Pulling the
wood screw over a bar of soap before using it will make inserting the
screw into the wood easier.
For the hollow wall anchors, use a #2 Phillips head screwdriver and
tighten the screw. It is important to get this anchor very tight!! You will
tighten this anchor until the screw stops turning. Once the Track is tight
against the wall, you're fi nished.
