FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT IF I FIND A STUD BLOCKING WHERE I WANT TO USE THE WALLSHARK?
If you find a stud exactly where you want to do the attachment, we suggest not using WallShark and securing your post into the stud instead. However, if the stud is off to the side and tough to attach to, then you can chisel off a small portion of the stud with a chisel and a hammer. This will make room for the WallShark. You’ll need to chisel enough away so that the 1.85” wall plug can fit in the hole, and you’ll need to go about 7/8 of an inch deep.
WHAT KIND OF REPAIRS OR INSTALLATIONS DOES WALLSHARK WORK ON?
Wallshark is designed for repairs or new installations on drywall. It cannot be used on wood, brick, tile, lath, plaster, or plasterboard walls. It can be used to replace failed wall anchors, mollies, or anchor bolts that have been used to mount devices on drywall. You can use Wallshark to install new towel bars, toilet paper holders, robe or towel hooks, curtain tie backs, or anything that can be covered by a post that is 2.0 inches or more in diameter.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE?
Included in the package is everything needed for two complete repairs or installations. You provide the drill — we’ll take care of everything else.
What you will find in the package:
2 – Single mount plug
1 – WallShark driver
8 – #6 screws
2 – WallShark plug array assemblies
1 – Wall cutter/carrier assembly
2 – Wall sanders
2 – Wall guides
1 – Phillips bit
1 – Small screwdriver
1 – Standard drill bit
1 – Instruction sheet for installation
ARE THE PARTS REUSABLE?
Yes. The standard drill bit, small screwdriver, Phillips head bit, WallShark drive bit, and some of the extra screws certainly are reusable.
The wall guides and wall sanders are reusable as long as you can clean the sandpaper with a steel brush. You can get at least 4-5 uses out of the wall sanders before the sandpaper wears out.
Furthermore, the WallShark cutter/carrier can also be used more than once–we’ve used them 10-15 times in testing with no damage to the cutter/carrier.
The only thing that cannot be reused is the WallShark wall plug itself, as it remains in the wall permanently after the installation. We currently offer the “Sharkfin” package which includes 5 wall plugs, a couple of sand paper rings and 10 screws for those who have already purchased a WallShark package.
