Drywall installation

7 years ago

Hello, I have a solid wood backing behind the drywall where track will be attached. Can I install track right on the drywall without header board in my case?
Some manufacturers require header board between drywall and track in any case. What is the commendation with your kit?

Thank you for reaching out to Houzz!

Per the manufacturer, you can install this on the drywall without a header board, or with a header board between the drywall and track.
