Is this the Moen "secure mount" fastening system. also featured in a local home supply video?..which means no studs are needed?

I don't really know. This was attached in a shower over tile. I really like it, it is secure in the shower, but don't have a definitive answer about studs or not. Sorry.

No, this one isn't the secure mount type. I didn't know they made one. Here's a video I found of how to install the "secure mount" Moen. http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=non+drill+grab+bar+installation&sm;=12 You might also be interested to know that there is an ADA compliant grab bar which requires no drilling at all http://www.homedepot.com/p/No-Drilling-Required-Gripp-18-in-x-1-1-2-in-Grab-Bar-in-Brushed-Stainless-Steel-GB38018-SS-NDR/202819521?N=bz9r#. Information on how to install this type is in the comments section and also there are Youtube videos. I didn't do a search on Amazon to see if they carry those. Hope the answer was helpful. I sure learned something anyway. No, this one isn't the secure mount type. I didn't know they made one.

we made sure to install this bar in a stud. We did not want to take any chances.

You don't need studs, but use Wingit hollow wall anchors that are rated up to 300 lbs. You can find a kit with a ceramic drill bit to drill the holes and then use these anchors. I have installed three of these grab bars and they are as secure as if mounted on studs. Search for Wingit online and you'll find video explaining how they work and are installed.

I would always recommend using studs, whenever possible, for safety equipment like this

OMI haven't done it but the instructions say it's possible. See this PDF. http://www.moen.com/shared/docs/instruction-sheets/ins10086.pdf We used the "drill hole" option and it is very solid. I'm around 230 Lbs. Maybe use the "Screw into stud" for one mount and the "Hole in drywall" for the other.73

Not at all. The kit had everything I needed to install. As long as you have easy access to two studs, you should be fine. Very happy with product. Good Luck!

I'm not sure I understand the question. How can you hang a wall without studs?The mounting system for this grab bar is designed to grasp the back side of the wall similar to toggle bolts, so you need a pocket or void behind the wall. At one installation point I didn't detect a void and used a lag screw into a stud.

Not sure--go to the Moen web site and you will find the information you need.

All you need is a hole in the drywall the size of the speaker and about an inch clearance all around the hole for the speaker-hook-grab-arms to swing out the pull on the inside of the drywall for the secure mount. i.e. can't install upagainst a stud. ---Dale

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

Their definition of "Wall mounted" is 2 moly screws Ha-Ha....There is NO metal bracket included......I designed my own metal bracket to enable wall mounting...The sink itself is a quality product........

It takes two screws to mount. If your're not going into a stud it would be good to use moly's with the screws. I honestly can't remember if they came with it but I'm inclined to say it didn't.

No, you need some special hardware to secure the mount. Unfortunately we do not carry that.

I believe my contractor mounted it using the included hardware. That part was not at all difficult. Even if I'm wrong, it was nothing more than a couple lag bolts if I remember correctly. Easy to pick up at the hardware store if they were not included.

Screw the end brackets into the wall studs, be sure to measure first to see how long the hanger tubing is, there is a long pin that is in each wall bracket that runs thru the end of the hanger tube. Didn't directions come with your order, mine was easy to install, of course my brother did it for me!!!!!

I don't remember exactly where the screws were in my package, but you need 2 screws to secure the fixture. What you need depends on where you are mounting the piece. Included with my purchase were screws and concrete anchors. I was installing on a stud wall, so used the included screws w/o the anchors, but made sure to anchor in a stud. My guess is the were 2" long #8 screws. Take a look at the mounting hardware, I think you will need pan head screws, but don't remember and am not at home just now. I would not recommend installing using drywall anchors, I just don't think many would support the towel bar and weight of damp towels. As for instructions. I'd think you should be able to find the manual on-line somewhere. I used 2 screws to install. Mount the brass octagon to the wall (it should include a rubber gasket around the outside). Place the round cover on the bar. Slide the bar onto the wall mount and tighten the two hex screws on the bar. Then simply slide the round cover over the wall mount -- it should just be a friction fit due to the gasket around the wall mount.

This comes with two lipped metal mounting brackets that you screw into the wall (using anchors). The brackets arrive screwed into each post, so you can see exactly how to mount the post onto the bracket, using the provided allen wrench. You must, obviously, remove them before you start. Mount the brackets, slide on the nice, heavy posts, which you then secure with the above-mentioned small screw from the bottom of each bracket. You can't see the screw unless you duck your head directly under the shelf. Moen provides a template for spacing, allen wrench, brackets, 3 different types of wall anchors and screws. If you google "how to mount moen retreat series shelf" you will find an instruction video!

The bottom screw of each triangle of screws I installed will definitely be in the stud. You must have additional screws on top and bottom "plates" to make the grab bar secure. Just one screw at the top and one screw at the bottom in the stud is a "no-no". Wall anchors are also a "no-no". There may be a way to get more screws into the stud if you know what you're doing. There are "slots" between the oval holes of the "plates". If you angle the long screws just right, you can put a screw through the "slots" so they can go on each side of the stud at the top and bottom of the grab bar. Just be careful so the long screws don't hit each other or you'll have a mess. You may have to get 4 thick shorter screws but it will be worth it to make the grab bar secure. Good luck.

Simple with drywall screws, no need for anchors. Our oven has been up on these brackets now for 6 months without any incident. HTH

Really not sure. There is no hardware included to fasten it to metallic stud
