Rail must begin and end on studs!

Drilling the pilot holes

Placing the screws

stud should have two screws in it.)

Troubleshooting
What surface can Husky Track or Husky Wall be installed over? Existing
plaster, drywall, and concrete walls. To install over concrete walls use
firing strips or a concrete drill bit and “tap con” flathead screws to attach
the same way as you would into a stud wall (pre-drilling screw locations). How
do I install Husky Track or Husky Wall over the brick wall? One way is to
purchase concrete screws (the system comes with hardware for wood) along with
a hammer drill. A second way is to fir out the wall using 2 in. x 2 in. studs.
Anchor the studs to the concrete wall, a preferred method spacing them 16 in.
off center. For added support when storing heavier items, we recommend
installing a plywood sheet over the recently installed studs to help support
our panels.
Can I add more Husky Track or Husky Wall when needed?
Yes, you can add more panels to your existing system as your storage needs
arise. On each completed end, it is easy to configure connections that allow
you to add additional panels as your needs change in the future. Can I cut
Husky Track or Husky Wall? Yes, Husky Track or Husky Wall can easily be cut
using a table saw, jig saw, or hand saw. For best results use a slider saw
capable of making 12 in. or longer cut. Use a 90-tooth blade for a clean
finish and then add our trim.
