Center Mark Magnetic Drywall Locator #8110 for Precision Work
Find and Mark Hidden Recessed Lighting Fixtures With No Measuring
The Center Mark Magnetic Drywall Locator 8110 is a precision magnetic tool designed to detect drywall screw locations behind finished wall surfaces and mark the exact centre point between detected fasteners — providing a precise fastener installation point without the guesswork of estimating stud centre from a single screw detection. At The Contractors Site, we supply the Center Mark for Ontario contractors and tradespeople who need confident, accurate fastening points on finished walls.
Great for first-time DIYs or the experienced handyperson, the Center Mark recessed lighting fixture locator uses powerful rare-earth magnets to help you accurately locate can-light fixtures for easy and accurate cutting of the holes in the sheetrock with no measuring required. The Center Mark can be used with traditional screw-in bulb cans to cut out 4", 5", and 6" recessed light fixture openings. This tool is not intended for recessed LED light fixtures. It eliminates costly measuring errors, keeps wasted drywall sheets out of landfills, and improves your productivity.
Magnetic Precision Without Electronic Complexity
The Center Mark uses permanent magnets — no batteries, no calibration, no electronic sensitivity adjustments. The magnetic force responds to the steel drywall screws beneath the surface consistently, regardless of wall conditions, wiring proximity, or the age of the building. For contractors who've been frustrated by electronic stud finders in challenging wall conditions, the magnetic method is the reliable alternative.
No more lifting and lowering heavy drywall sheets multiple times. In three easy steps you'll be done: Just screw the Center Mark Targets into your recessed can light fixture, install the drywall, locate the target, and cut the hole in the sheetrock.
