Ceiling Anchor Plate Kits: Pair

For use in concrete, brick or wood (wood screws not included, and must be purchased separately), this set of 2 anchor plate kits is designed with ceilings in mind.

It uses 4 sleeve anchor expansion bolts when used in concrete or brick, or 4 wood screws (not included) when used in wood for a sturdy hold. It then uses a carabiner and strap with 6 loops for selecting the desired hanging height.

An anchor plate is a good option when you want something more solid than a screw hook or tree strap, or when you need to install concrete or brick (which a screw hook won't allow).

Setup is easy enough if you know how to use the expansion bolts

Installation in Concrete or Brick

The 4 expansion bolts (sleeve anchors) are specifically designed for use in concrete or brick.

1. Mark out 4 holes positioned correctly for the anchor plate.
2. Drill the holes with a hammer drill, with depth and width to fit the sleeve anchors inside.
3. Clean the hole of dust using a vacuum, blower or brush.
4. Position the anchor plate in place.
5. Slide or tap the sleeve anchors in, then tighten the nuts sufficiently so that the sleeve expands, tightening itself in the hole.

For further instructions for installing in concrete or brick, see below:

Installation in Wood 
Important: Do not use the the expansion bolts in wood. It could split the wood, and will not be as strong. You'll need to purchase 4x wood screws separately.

1. Mark out 4 holes positioned correctly for the anchor plate.
2. Drill pilot holes (to help to avoid wood splitting).
3. Position the anchor plate in place.
4. Drive in the screws.

Now you have your anchor plates in place, so you can attach each strap by passing it through the metal ring, then passing it through itself. Now attach the carabiner at the desired height and attach the swing of your choice. 

Have an adult check the strength of the set-up before use.
