Hanging a mount question
 
Soooo, turns out the basement framing is metal/aluminum studs. Any suggestions for hanging my deer mount? I read somewhere about toggle bolts, but before I do any more deconstruction I’m looking for another opinion.
Thanks in advance

I wold think a toggle, molly, or anchor type will work. Think they are your only options really unless you open up the wall and put in a cross brace.

pedestal mount if you have room

Several of my larger mounts are just with a larger toggle. Trick is to add an additional screw and washer so you get a tight pressure between wall and screw with allowing screw head to stick out 1/2 in or so to hang mount without screw pressure pushing down into the dry wall
