Does Autoscratchpad.com provide all of the necessary installation parts in the Scratch Pad kit?
The product kit provides the new Scratch Pad owner with the necessary parts to install the pad in BOTH 1) a garage with open beams, and 2) a garage with a dry-walled ceiling. Yes, the necessary parts for both of these anchoring methods are provided with every Scratch Pad kit. What the new Scratch Pad owner must purchase on their own is and, only if they have an open beams garage installation: An approx. 10 foot length of 1 inch diameter closet hanger dowel from your local hardware or home improvement store. The dowel doesnt need to be painted; just placed across the cross-beams over the space between the parked cars in the garage. This dowel is the ceiling anchor for the Scratch Pad; without it, it is difficult to install the Scratch Pad in an open beam garage.
