How to Mount a Changing Table to a Wall

Wall-mounted changing tables aren't just for restaurants and malls. They can help parents save space if they have a small nursery or live in a small home or apartment. The changing bed folds up into the wall mount, keeping it completely out of the way when in use. Some wall-mounted changing tables also have shelves or bins to store items like diaper cream and lotion. It is important to mount the changing table properly so that it doesn't fall and your baby stays safe.

Things You'll Need

  • Wall-mounted changing table
  • Manufacturer's instructions
  • Included hardware
  • Stud finder
  • Drywall anchors
  • Pencil
  • Drill or screwdriver

      Read the instructions included with the wall-mounted changing table. Though most wall-mounted changing tables are hung using the same basic procedure, there may be variations according to the specific model.

    • 2

      Locate a general area where you want to hang the table.

    • 3

      Find studs in the area using a stud finder. Mark the studs lightly with a pencil.

    • 4

      Screw or nail the changing table to the studs, using the hardware included.

      If no studs are available, or if the studs are not in the right location to match up with the screws on the changing table, use drywall anchors. Hold the table to the wall and mark the holes for the screws or nails. Drive the drywall anchors into the wall using either a hammer or a screwdriver. Hold the table to the wall and drive the screws or nails through the drywall anchors.
