Attention
FitWood recommends that a qualified professional installs your TAIMI wall bars to ensure proper
and safe connection to studs or other type of wall structure. The package includes fastening screws
which, for example, can be used for fastening TAIMI wall bars to:
• A plasterboard wall with wooden studs
• A concrete wall
Please note that FitWood cannot specifically know what kind of wall the end user has (e.g. wall
material and wall thickness). Therefore, FitWood only provides sample screws. If necessary, purchase
the fastening materials that suit your needs according to the qualified professional's instructions.
FitWood is not responsible for supplying the correct type of fastening supplies with the product.
When installing the product in a public space or structure with metal supports, a qualified
professional must define which materials and fasteners are considered safe for attaching the TAIMI
wall bars to the wall. The product package does not contain supplies for attaching TAIMI wall bars to
metal supports.
FitWood is not responsible for damages to the product or to the surrounding material, such as the
wall, which have occurred due to improper or incorrect installation of FitWood TAIMI wall bars.
FitWood is also not responsible for any personal injuries or death caused by improper or incorrect
installation or use of the FitWood TAIMI wall bars.
Installing the support beams on the wall
Please note! The support beams are 78 cm wide and can be mounted to wooden wall studs that
are 60 cm apart or at any other undefined distance from each other, if the distance is less than 70
cm. Before installation, hire a qualified professional to verify, that the screws included in the product
package are suitable for the particular wall material. The nylon plugs can be used to mount the wall
bars to a concrete wall, if a qualified professional confirms that they are suitable for the wall material
in question.
Step 1 (mounting to plasterboard wall)
Use the stud finder to locate the wooden studs in the wall, so you can mount the TAIMI wall bars to
them. Once you've located the studs, measure the distance between them.
Step 2 (mounting to plasterboard wall)
From the center of the support beam, measure half the distance between the studs. For example,
if the distance between the studs is 60 cm, measure 30 cm from the center of the support beam
towards the outer edges. Remember to also consider the width of the studs when you mark the
positions of the holes on the support beam.
Step 3
Mark the positions of the mounting holes on the wall bars' support beams with dots. Remember
to also mark the desired position of the wall bars on the wall. Hire a qualified professional to verify
that you have the correct size screws and proper mounting materials at your disposal to attach the
support beams to the studs or other wall material securely.
Step 4
Pre-drill the holes you marked on the support beams for fastening. We recommend that you hire
a qualified professional to verify that the size of the pilot holes for the selected fastening screws
is correct. Do not drill holes to the glue joint of the support beam, because that might cause the
support beam to crack. Additionally, we recommend avoiding the use of countersunk screws,
because those might also cause the support beam to crack.
