Support and Anchorage
To prevent sway and provide proper support of the light, the wall mount must be attached to a
structurally-sound wall or similar structure.
Most walls will require adequate reinforcing to hold the light. The installing contractor is
responsible for providing this reinforcement to suit the individual requirements for each
installation.
A typical reinforcement consists of a ¼” (6 mm) steel plate. Make certain the mounting plate is
vertical, or the arm may “drift”.
Equipment anchorage diagrams are supplied with these instructions to help with the installation
(see page 14). The diagrams were prepared by a California-licensed Structural Engineer. If the
lights are installed accordingly, the system will meet requirements of the State Seismic Codes.
