Expert Reply:

The Tow-Rax Mounting Buttons # TWSP30BK will allow you to provide a mounting location for the Tow-Rax Wall-Mounted Folding Table # TWSP45HFTA. These mounting buttons will install on the wall of your shop, garage, or trailer. If you will be drilling into drywall you will want to use an anchor to help secure the screw to the drywall.

Ideally, you will want to mount the buttons on a structural element such as a wall stud or frame member for maximum strength, since the shelf itself weighs 20 pounds.
