Mr C, let me begin by saying the bracket is outstanding !! Beautiful workmanship !..........BUT........after knocking mine off no less than 10 times, I decided I needed another mounting solution. I went out and bought some 1/8 " short wall anchors ( for 3/8 in drywall )....I cut the nibs off ( that would normally dig in to the drywall ) and put 4 flat washers against the part that would normally sit on top of the drywall. PERFECT !! creates a very solid mount. Thanks again !!
