how does it install on a tiled wall?

I have no idea. I installed it on a regular wall into the studs behind the wall and its still working like a champ.

I used "hollow wall anchors" preferably the "winged" type purchased at any hardware storeHome Depot, Lowe's, etc. Use a fine concrete bit for a pilot hole and then enlarged it as neededfor the folded wings to go thru the tile and back wall. Make sure they are log enough to be ableto go thru for the folded wings to open before tightening.

For best results you need to mount onto studs. My unit was mounted on a new doubled stud wall so all 6 screws were solid. No fear of the hand bar pulling out that way. For an existing wall where you don't know if you'll hit a stud I would use the largest expanding anchor I could find. Good luck.

I went to a local tile store and found there is a metal edging you an buy for under $20.00 that you put on the end of the wall and the tiles fit into it. It finishes off the edge of the tiles. The edge is less than half an inch that you see. It works great.

Once it's stapled down and flat. Pour a floor levelor over it. Approx 1/2" thick then you can tile over it.

I'm sure you can contact the manufacturer, but it is very simple to install. It is installed on top of the tile (just make sure they leave the water line coming through the tile at the right spot). there are cross pieces that are used to hang it. My contractor made sure he had a 2x6 as a cross mount between the 2 x 4 framing. There were no instructions in the box regarding operation....that was all trial and error.

Hi Sry i cant be much help. I can just tell you we installed it on plywood and then put tile mortar over it and applied tile and it works great!

It comes with a bracket that screws tight to the drywall. Then the faceplate mounts to it

you mount as you would other tile it is wall mounted , wall is not cut into, the back center is raised where you would apply mortar than other tile sits right under its edge.

The screws that came with it numbered two. This has been installed now for several months on a tile wall. It is secure and we are very happy with it. Try it, you will like it too.

The box has hardware for installing it on a concrete wall or a wood wall. Fortunately, I was able to install it on a cinder block wall. You must open the door of the box in order to install it on the wall so the support screws are securely hidden when the door is locked. It's very sturdy metal and no one is going to be able to take it off the wall without knocking a hole in the wall (in my case). However, I wouldn't install it on drywall because drywall is not sturdy enough. I'm extremely happy with this security box.

You can either spread a layer of thin set mortar over it or self leveling compound. Just make sure it's flat for tile.

Mine are mounted in a tiled shower, but my assumption would be that it would work just fine on fiberglass, too. I'm basing that on the method used to "attach" it to the wall. There is no adhesive or even suction involved. Instead, you place it where you want it (there are thin foam strips on the back so nothing will be scratched), make sure it is level and then just press on the "bar" at the front which keeps the pressure on and holds it in place. It's almost unbelievably clever; mine have both been in place for a number of months and seem as secure as the day I put them in. Removal is equally simple. You'll love these things -- fabulous!

Install two screws into the wall that match holes in the back of the can. Above each hole is a short, narrow track. Insert the can holes over the screws and slide the can down the short tracks to hold it snugly to the wall. Would not install it on a door if the door is hollow. Otherwise, there won't be anything to hold the screws, or the can, in place. When installed properly, it works great! We've had no problems with ours and use it daily.

It mounts directly to the wall. The installation is easy, but the finished product isn't quite as stable as would be desired. Luckily, I bought this before the salon was finished and was able to get some extra bracing where I needed it.

Michelle, I don't know about tile and I didn't keep the instructions. The parts are not heavy, I think it would be best on the wall. I have it in one position and don't move it back and forth much. Every piece is shiny chrome. Hope this helps. I love it though, because I don't have to bend over to use it.....it saves my back.

Hi while I have mine into Sheetrock,you can mount it on tile. You need the drill bit and anchors. You can get assistance at any home improvement center such as a lowes. Also you may find a YouTube video showing you how to do it. Good luck

It may be possible to do so, but mine is mounted on the wall and tiled around (tile first, but leave one side untiled so the cornerpiece can be slipped into place without fighting the tile, unless you have huge grout lines). The tile should dry first because the cornerpiece needs to be held in place with tape while it dries in place. I really like how it looks.

The plumber is correct. It won't mount correctly because of the seams in the tile and you need a finished edge on the tile.
