In some cases, mounting to a ceiling timber work may be an
alternative to mounting to wall or wall support.
It is provided that the ceiling timber work is accessible from above.
When being mounted in the ceiling timber work, exchange should be
placed as reinforcement. When reinforcing, it is important to select
exchange wood that is dimensioned to tolerate the distance between
two ceiling beams, so sufficient carrying capacity is achieved. When
having marked up to all ceiling brackets in the ceiling, you should
examine whether there is free space above the ceiling material. When
this is done, holes with a diameter of Ø12.5 mm are drilled through
the ceiling material. The holes may now be localized from above,
they can be prepared for the exchanges, and you may measure how
long the threaded rods should be. The exchange should cover at
least two ceiling beams on each side of the suspension point. When
using exchanges, two 45x95 mm exchanges should be placed parallel
to each other, at a distance of 14 mm, providing a passage for an
M12 threaded rod. For determining the length of the threaded rod,
determine the ceiling beam's height + length of exchange wood +
ceiling material + 60 mm for washer and nuts.
Place the adapted threaded rod between the exchange wood and put
in a washer and nut before the threaded rod is guided further down
through the ceiling and position it with an aluminium plate, a tightening
washer and nut over the exchange wood. The aluminium plate is
screwed into the exchange wood from the top. Let approximately 25
mm threaded rod protrude down under the ceiling material. A quick
ceiling bracket may now be screwed onto the threaded rod beneath
the ceiling material. The ceiling bracket is fastened with an M12 low
nut. The threaded rod is to be screwed entirely through the nut, but
must protrude further down that below the fitting.
When mounting the bracket and nut, it is important to use adhesive
on bracket as well as nut. When all brackets are mounted, lift up
the rail, adjust the length and secure it. Before the rail is fastened
up to the ceiling, which is done from above the ceiling, it should be
checked that the exchange wood is resting on both ceiling beams. If
not, something should be placed between.
The nut over the exchange wood is now secured carefully until the
bracket lies evenly with the ceiling material. It is important not to
tighten so much that the ceiling material is pulled up between the
ceiling beams. When this is done, a steel plate is placed in around the
threaded rod below the exchange wood, and the nut is secured up
into the steel plate, thus locking the position.
Finally, a lock nut is secured against the nut on the upside of the
exchange wood. Trolleys, end stop and rail end plugs are mounted as
described in section 5.2.1.

In some cases, installation with passing screws may be an alternative
to wall or wall support installation.
This requires that the roof beam layer can be accessed from above.
This is often the case in one-storied houses. To reinforce the roof
beam layer, exchanges of 45x95 mm are placed edgeways.
Instead of the expansion bolts, a M10 threaded rod of appropriate
length is used. An installation plate (yoke) rests on top of the braces.
The exchange must rest on the roof beams on both sides of the
suspension. If this is not possible, the exchange must be secured to
prevent them from tilting when loaded.
The minimum number of three mounting points per rail for concrete
ceiling does not apply to wooden ceilings. Here, the max. free span
determines the number of mounting points.
The rest of the installation process is similar to the process for
concrete ceilings. It is, however, necessary to drill both holes for the
center bracket (the standard bracket) at the same time.
Cut the threaded rods to appropriate length and attach the washers
and M10 nuts locking nuts.
The threaded rods are to be screwed from below and up through the
yoke. The yoke is fastened from above to the exchanges with nails
and screws.
Before the rail is fastened to the ceiling, which is done from above,
you should double-check that the exchange wood is resting on two
ceiling beams. If not, something should be placed between.
Be careful when tightening the nuts to prevent damage to the
suspended ceiling.
3.3 Wall installation – end hung rail
The following are recommendations only. Alternatively, expansion
bolts with the similar thickness and quality can be applied. Always
follow the recommendations from your supplier.
For freely suspended installation, the end of the rails may be attached
to the wall with wall brackets or wall support. Choose wall support,
if you are in doubt of the load bearing capacity of the wall material.
When installing freely suspended rails, the max. rail length must
be observed, depending on the selected rail profile. The distance
between the walls must be max. 2 m for rail profile S, 4 m for rail
profile M and 8 m for rail profile L.
If you need to mount or dismount a hoist trolley after installation,
the distance from one wall to the rail must be at least 160 mm.
At secondary installation of Robin Mover™, the distance must be
minimum 300 mm. If you need to mount or dismount the traverse
trolley after installation, the distance between the one wall and the
rail must be at least 350 mm. (Minimum distance from rail to wall
must always be 60 mm). If you have a wall-mounted rail profile S, you
cannot mount or dismount the trolley after installation.

3.3.1 Rail profile M and L

When installing wall brackets or wall support legs, leave a gap from
the ceiling to the upper edge of the wall bracket or floor support.
The gap should be at least:
•
80 mm for rail profile M
