We recommend one climbing hold for every two square feet of climbing surface.
For taller or advanced climbers, one hold for every three square feet is often sufficient. Start with what your budget affords; you can always add more in the future.
For our residential customers, all climbing holds come with the necessary bolts or screws for standard (3/4" thick) indoor wall
installation. If your wall is thicker or outdoors, select suitable bolts as an option under Hardware Options > Bolts before adding the holds to your
shopping cart. Commercial climbing gyms and other wholesale customers do not receive hardware by default; but it is available at a discounted
rate. T-Nuts and wrenches are sold separately unless specifically noted.
If your climbing wall is exposed to the elements, we recommend using stainless steel bolts. You will need to select this option on the product
page under Hardware Options > Bolts before adding the holds to your shopping cart.
