Is the Ceiling Hook Too Small?Updated 2 months ago

This is a common concern when using our original 4-holed ceiling hook.

Most ceiling joists are 2x4 in size, allowing only two screws to be securely fastened. Rest assured, the ceiling hook remains safe and can still support the recommended 300-pound weight limit when properly installed.

What Should You Do with the Extra Screw Holes?

  • The two screws secured into the wooden joist provide strong, reliable support.
  • The remaining two screw holes can either be left empty or, for added stability, you can use wall anchors to secure them into the sheetrock.

Safety Assurance

When installed correctly, the swing will function safely and effectively while maintaining the weight capacity and durability needed for sensory play.

For best results, always follow our installation guidelines and perform routine safety checks before each use.
