Mounting
General
Whatever the wall material, the following points must be observed when the Flex Hang is in use:

Mounting in wood and planks
Pre-drilling could simplify the mounting. When mounting heavier objects in chipboard, the use of plastic plugs is recommended to increase the load tolerance of the hole in the chipboard.
Mounting in plasterboard
When mounting in plaster walls, the Flex Hang can be used without plugs if the objects does not weigh more than 5 kg. Predrill in the same way as for wooden planks. For heavier objects, plaster plug can stabilise the holes.
Mounting in concrete wall
When mounting in concrete or brick walls, suitable plugs must be used.
