Screw-on vs. Bolt-on Holds
Screw-on holds attach with either wood screws or concrete Tapcon screws. All you need is 3/4" thick plywood or a thicker material. Bolt-on holds attach with one 3/8-16 Allan head bolt into a 3/8-16 t-nut. The bolt passes through the hold into the panel and then into the t-nut which has been installed in to the back of the panel. The bolt-on system is nice because you can easily move or rotate holds quickly. The t-nuts stay in place in back of the wall.
Screw-on holds attach using drywall, decks screws or concrete Tapcon screws. Atomik Climbing Holds use #6 zinc plated 1 5/8 screws for the majority of the product line. This system is nice because you are not limited to where you can put a hold. You can also attach screw-on holds to concrete walls using Tapcon screws (this will require a hammer drill to drill holes for concrete screws).
Installation Instructions
See the picture gallery for an example of where to place the holds.
If you plan to lay a sheet of plywood right against drywall, simply attach the 3/4" plywood through the drywall to the studs and then you can attach the holds anywhere on the plywood. This method of plywood attachment is acceptable because the holds in this set are screw-ons and attach with multiple wood screws per hold. You can attach these holds directly to concrete as well using concrete Tapcon screws (sold separately).
See How to Build a Wall for complete instructions.
