FAQs - Franklin Sensors

Q: What is the starting procedure for my Franklin Sensors stud finder?

Just press and hold the button and begin scanning. You can press the button before, or after, placing it on the wall. Once the unit is on the wall, the lights will indicate the position of hidden objects in the wall. Franklin Sensors stud finders are unique in their ability to instantly find studs. (Other stud finders have a specific set of steps that must be followed for them to operate correctly). Note: This is not the case with our 3-sensor models.

Q: Why is important to keep my hand on the handle during a scan?

Keeping on your hand on the handle will ensure that you get the most accurate readings possible. If your hand slips off the handle, your hand could interfere with the signals and compromise the accuracy of the readings. Please keep your hand on the handle for best performance.

Q: What makes a Precision LED display better?

Stud finders with a Precision LED Display have LEDs that are spaced just 0.3 inches apart (instead of 0.5 inch spacing). This closer spacing more precisely identifies the location of studs.

Q: Why are Franklin Sensors stud finders so much better than other stud finders?

Other electronic stud finders are only able to sense the wall at one point. Consequently, they require the user to slide the stud finder back and forth across a wall to “learn” the wall. If there is an inconsistency in the wall at the point of the reading, the readings may be incorrect. The Franklin Sensors Multi-Sense Technology reads multiple points on the wall, all at once, and uses advanced algorithms. The result is a larger sensing area and deeper, more accurate stud sensing.
