What happens here
Locate the wall studs in the desired desk location using a stud finder. Position the welded metal frame against the wall, ensuring it is level using a level tool. Use a drill or impact driver to securely attach the frame to the wall studs with appropriate screws (e.g., lag screws). Apply construction adhesive or caulk behind the frame for added stability and to seal any gaps, using a caulk gun.
Goal: Securely install the metal frame to the wall.
