System, method, and apparatus for installation of an anchor assembly

An installation tool for installing an anchor in a wall structure, the installation tool comprising:

• a plate body configured to engage the wall structure during installation of the anchor, the plate body defining an opening and having a substantially flat lower surface opposite an upper surface;
• and
• a guide extending through the opening in the plate body and having a first open end located a first distance above the upper surface of the plate body and a second open end located a second distance below the lower surface of the plate body, the first distance being greater than the second distance,
• wherein the guide defines an internal passageway between the first open end and the second open end, and a central axis of the internal passageway is substantially perpendicular to the lower surface of the plate body.

A method for installing an anchor assembly in a wall structure having an outer wall panel and an internal thickness, the method comprising:

• providing an angled installation tool, the angled installation tool comprising:
• a plate body having a major hole and a plurality of minor holes disposed around the major hole, at least one protrusion extending from a substantially flat lower surface of the plate body near the major hole, and a guide mounted to a upper surface of the plate body at an oblique angle relative to the lower surface of the plate body, the guide defining an internal passageway between a first open end and a second open end positioned adjacent to the major hole;
• inserting the at least one protrusion of the angled installation tool into an opening formed in the wall structure until the lower surface of the plate body engages the wall structure;
• guiding a first lateral anchor of the anchor assembly through the internal passageway of the guide, through the major hole, and into the opening in the wall structure;
• and
• inserting the first lateral anchor into the internal thickness of the wall structure at the oblique angle formed by the guide.
