Climbing Monkey - 25 Piece Rock Wall Climbing Holds Premium Grips for DIY Rock Wall Climbing Kit with Complete Industrial Hardware, Colorful Jungle

You can drill the holes with a 7/16'' drill bit, and the t-nuts hammer in really easily, just make sure to mark the drill spot by sticking a marker down both of the holes. The Allen wrench tightens down the holds perfectly and the bolts are really big and thick. I installed the climbing wall using 3/4" plywood, and the holds felt extremely sturdy with my weight of 200+ pounds, even though I built it for children. The holds are reasonably sized, and simple to grip with hands and feet. Overall I was impressed with this product.Comparatively to other similar products, I like Climbing Monkey Holds because it comes with its own hardware. All you need is a 7/16'' to 1/2" drill bit which you can get at Lowes for like $2.00, and a hammer to put in t-nuts. Also Climbing Monkey Holds have surprisingly long and thick bolts, making you feel much more safe. The holds are colorful and fun so it is great for kids.

These are a great addition to a play set for kids, or beginners at rock climbing. They're brightly colored, sturdy, and a relatively larger size suitable to easier climbing.The pieces all have the same space between screws, which makes it easy to set up and install them with a template for where to drill the holes. The bolts and all hardware are included, as well as all 25 listed pieces. I took a picture of a representative sample just to show all angles of them.Some of the pieces were loose in the box upon arrival, not still in the bag. They're sturdy, so this wasn't a problem but worth noting. All of the hardware remained contained in its own bag.

These are very solid holds, thick plastic, 5 different colors, each color is a different shape. could be used in a professional rock climb but I just did a small wall for my grandkids play fort. I thought I would have to buy the hardware to mount them but it all came with it unlike other holds I looked at. They were easy to install and look great on the finished project. Super value for the price. Great Customer Service. When they came, shipping had lost one of the holds. I contacted Hidden Valley Merchandise and they got me a replacement right away. I mounted these through 3/4 inch plywood and then used and angle grinder to cut them off flush to the mounting nuts.

These worked perfect for the sized rock wall I needed. I built a 4x7 rock wall and the 25 pcs worked great. They are definitely easy to install and seem to be very good quality. Time will tell how the quality really is but so far so good. My wife and I have both climbed on these as well without any issues.One thing I do recommend, is to use an allen bit with a power drill instead of the one provided (if you have or want to quickly purchase one). I only say this because it definitely saved a lot of time vs having to manually screw down all the bolts (50 of them). I just happened to have one already but using the provided wrench will still work and is simple.

Holds seem sturdy- definitely not pro grade, but great for kids. Fyi The hardware is suuuuper long, for my purposes I had to trim quite a bit off with an angle grinder. Also, the bolts aren't fully threaded, so be careful with your material thickness. All in, they're great, and I'll buy more in the future.

They're great. I've had them up about 3 months now, no issues. The plastic is very solid.Kids are able to climb them with ease. There's plenty to grab/step onto, not a challenging hold.I agree with the other reviewer who said the 2nd washer is unnecessary, even detrimental. The instructions say to place a washer between the climbing hold and the wall. But if you do this, the hold obviously will not sit flush against the wall, there's a little gap. This adds unnecessary stress on the hold, the bolt, and the wall, making for a less-solid attachment. Can the manufacturer explain why they included this 2nd washer? Is the washer supposed to sink into the wood?Anyhow, scrap the 2nd washer and it is solid! And you get 25 extra washers with your purchase. :)

We ended up buying 4 packs of these! Easy to set up, i followed the suggestions online to use a 1'x1' grid, and rotated the 2nd hole at random around the grid layout. Holds work in any direction and provide unique grips. Fun for me at 6'2" and 240 and fun for my 4 & 5 year olds to embarrass me haha.I used a 1/2" auger bit and 3/4" plywood. This whole assembly is screwed to 2x4s securely mounted on the wall. This accomplished 2 things: 1) it's easier to mount and anchor 2x4s than a huge sheet of ply with 32 holds on it, then just zip the sheet into the 2x4s. 2) provides set back distance so the bolts don't mash into the wall.

I’m a huge enthusiast of rock climbing, and thought I would get my little brothers into it as well. We already have a jungle gym in the backyard, and it seemed the perfect extension to the playset. I saw these rock wall holds and loved the number of rock holds you get for that price. It’s great! You also get these super beefy bolts and the rest of the mounting hardware. Seriously they are BIG! I don’t see these ever causing a problem and really puts me at ease in terms of safety. Once one of these climbing hold is attached, it will stick. The holds themselves are designed well to have their hands comfortably grab and hold. They have excellent grip.Overall I’m very happy with Climbing Monkey rock holds I would highly recommend them. It’s great exercise for kids, and they really enjoy it. Start them climbing young! It’s fantastic.
