Installing the Disc Holder

Step 1: Find The Location On Your Wall
Start by identifying the optimal location on your wall for mounting the disc holder. Consider factors like visibility, accessibility, and the overall layout of your practice area. Mounting the holder close to your practice location is key.
Step 2: Level The Disc Display & Mark The Mounting Holes With A Pencil
Using a level, ensure that the disc holder is straight. Mark the mounting holes with a pencil, ensuring precision in your placement.
Step 3: Drill Your Two Pilot Holes
Carefully drill two pilot holes into the marked locations. Be mindful of the wall type and use an appropriate drill bit for the best results.
Step 4: Put Wall Plugs Into Drilled Pilot Holes & Tap In Flush With Your Hammer
Insert wall plugs into the drilled pilot holes, tapping them in flush with a hammer. This provides a secure anchor for the mounting screws.
Step 5: Fasten the Disc Display To The Wall Using The Mounting Screws
Align the disc holder with the wall plugs and fasten it securely using the provided mounting screws. Double-check for levelness and stability.
Tips for Organizing and Maintaining Your Discs on the Wall Holder
Categorize by Type
Arrange your discs by type (understable, overstable) for quick identification.
Regular Checkups
Periodically inspect the disc holder for any loose screws or signs of wear to ensure its longevity.
Rotate Discs
Rotate your discs regularly to prevent prolonged exposure to sunlight on one side.
