CenteringtheStormShellHardCover–AdapterMountingPlate
The 44” Storm Shell hard cover and TV wall mount are designed to be installed on solid concrete or
brick or on wood studs. For wood stud installation, the 44” Storm Shell is designed for installation
on three studs spaced 16” apart as shown in Figure 1. If a different placement of the 44” Storm
Shell is required to center the TV in a particular space, or if the wall studs are built at 20” spacing,
then an Adapter Mounting Plate will be required. Please consult Item “44 Storm Shell Adapter
Mounting Plate”, as shown on StormshellTV.com/Products.

ConcreteorBrickInstallation
When installing the Storm Shell Hard Cover and TV Bracket on a concrete or brick wall, the provided
S7 and S8 screws alone will not be sufficient. Do not attempt to use the supplied S7 and S8 screws
alone on masonry or concrete.
Several options are commercially available for concrete or brick anchors. Options include concrete
sleeve anchors or concrete screws. Consult your local hardware store or online resources to
determine the best solution for your specific wall material. Obtain proper anchors and screws to
replace the S7 and S8 screws.
