Install the channel behind 5/8" drywall. Fasten it with #10 wood screws directly into a wood stud. Use heavy duty brackets made for 1" slots on 2" centers.
Recessed Upright Lengths for Floor-to-Ceiling Walls
Pick the length that matches your wall height. The 72" and 96" lengths suit most walls. Choose zinc for a standard look, or black for a modern, low-profile look.
