I have a drywall ceiling. Will this be secure enough without breaking the drywall or do I need to ensure that there is a stud behind the contact point?
Asked by: Mike
You will have to use your judgement as construction varies. Personally I've used it with drywall ceilings and three rolls not having a stud over them.

What is the maximum weight capacity? Can it hold three 140 paper rolls which are 40 lbs each?
Asked by: Irene A.
The weight capacity of each pole is 55 lbs, when the weight is evenly distributed. That being said, this system is not strong enough to hold 3 rolls at 40 lbs each.
