Custom Backplate (4.5"x3") for Swivel Mounts | Adapts 3.25" Wall Holes

Add-On Backplate for Adjustable Swivel Mounts

This custom backplate serves as an adapter, allowing you to install our standard Adjustable Swivel Mounts onto existing wall holes spaced **3.25 inches** apart (center-to-center).

Purpose: Bridges the gap between non-standard 3.25" wall hole spacing and the standard 2-5/8" spacing on our swivel mount base, while also covering the area behind the mount.

Adjustable Swivel Mount is NOT included - Purchase this backplate if you have 3.25" existing wall holes and need to attach one of our swivel mounts.

Have Existing 3.25" Holes? Mount Your Swivel Mount Without Drilling New Ones!

Replacing an old fixture or intercom that left mounting holes exactly 3.25 inches apart? Don't want to drill new holes in your wall to fit our standard swivel mount base? This custom adapter backplate is the perfect solution!

It securely attaches to your wall using the existing 3.25" spaced holes and provides the correct standard 2-5/8" spaced mounting points for our Adjustable Swivel Mount base. Its generous 4.5" x 3" size also helps cover any marks or openings left by the previous fixture.

How to Install (Backplate + Swivel Mount)

This backplate sits between your wall and the standard swivel mount base.

  1. Tools & Prep: Gather Swivel Mount parts, this Backplate, drill (optional, if holes need cleaning), PH1 & PH2 drivers/bits, level, screws/anchors suitable for your wall material to fit the existing 3.25" spaced holes (Wall screws/anchors NOT included).
    Turn OFF power to doorbell wiring at the circuit breaker!
  2. Position & Secure Backplate: Route existing wires through the center hole of this **Large Backplate**. Align the **3.25" spaced holes** on the backplate with your existing holes in the wall. Secure the backplate firmly to the wall using your own appropriate screws/anchors.
    Ensure the backplate is level and sits flush against the wall. Use robust wall fasteners.
  3. Mount Swivel Base to Backplate: Route wires through the standard **Swivel Mount Base** piece. Align the swivel base onto the now-mounted Large Backplate using the **2-5/8" spaced holes**. Attach the swivel base firmly to the backplate using the small screws **provided with this backplate** (likely #4 / PH1 driver).
    Do not overtighten screws into the backplate's threaded inserts.
  4. Continue Swivel Mount Install: Proceed with the standard installation steps for your swivel mount (attach swivel bracket to base, set angle, wire doorbell, attach doorbell using mount-provided screws, finalize angle) as detailed in the main swivel mount instructions.

Always follow safety rules & doorbell wiring guidelines. Selecting appropriate wall screws/anchors for the backplate is crucial for a secure installation.
