Proper L-Clip Layout
Your top and bottom L-Clip layouts should be spaced like this for an 8’ wide board.
If you don’t use this number of L-Clips on top and bottom, your board could end up like this. Please follow these installation directions.

Quick start
- Z-clip: Mark the top edge of the board, draw a line 3/4" below it and drill pilot holes into a stud near each end with a 1/8" bit.
- Attach the Z-hangers with long screws, hang the board on them and draw a line along its bottom edge.
- Remove the board, draw a line 1-1/8" up from the bottom line, drill and screw the 2 bottom brackets to the wall, rehang the board and fix it to the bottom brackets with 2 short screws.
- L-clip: Mark the bottom edge of the board, draw a line 1-1/4" above it, drill pilot holes and attach half of the angle brackets with long screws.
- Set the board on the bottom brackets and draw a line along its top edge, then remove it and draw a line 1" below the top line.
- Fix the top angle brackets to the wall, set the board on the bottom brackets and secure it to the top and bottom brackets with short screws.
Frequently asked questions
Which anchors should I use?
Use masonry anchors in 1/4" pre-drilled holes for masonry walls and drywall anchors in 1/4" pre-drilled holes for sheet rock walls (page 3, page 4).
Does bracket spacing matter?
Yes. The angle brackets and Z-clips must be installed using the layout and spacing shown. Failing to follow the instructions voids the warranty and could cause board failure and injury (page 5, page 6).
Should I use Z-clip or L-clip instructions?
The manual includes both and tells you which applies to which boards; follow the set that matches your board's mounting hardware (page 2).
