Then a 2 inch square hollow metal tube to the ceiling with a plate and 2 holes far enough apart so as not to split the wood if going into a beam. I decided to put mine sideways therefore only one goes into a joist and it's plenty to be honest if you use a 10cm long 10mm coach screw
I just put another bolt through the plasterboard anyway, doesn't add strength but help it stop moving laterally I guess when swinging the phantoms around
Pics attached hope it helps
