Setup
Installation (Wall Mounting)
The Zogola wall safe is designed to be installed between standard 16-inch on-center wall studs. Follow these steps for secure installation:
- Locate Studs: Use a stud finder to locate two adjacent wall studs that are 16 inches apart (center to center).
- Mark Opening: Carefully mark the outline for the safe's opening on the wall, ensuring it aligns perfectly between the studs and at the desired height.
- Cut Opening: Using appropriate tools, cut out the marked section of the drywall. Ensure the opening is precise to allow the safe to fit snugly.
- Insert Safe: Carefully slide the safe into the wall opening. The flanges on the safe should rest flush against the wall surface.
- Secure with Bolts: Use the provided expansion bolts to secure the safe to the wall studs. There are pre-drilled holes on the sides of the safe for this purpose. Tighten all bolts firmly.
- Concealment (Optional): The flush mount design allows for concealment behind framed artwork or other wall decor.
