I am looking for ideas on how to mount my dosing pump. If anyone has mounted their dosing pumps post pics of how you mounted doser.

What kind of doser? I made a small shelf out of playwood, painted it and used small brackets to hang it.

I had to go external. Just not enough space left inside the stand. Overall its pretty convient, as long as you dont mind the tech look.

I have a small aqua medic doser. Thanks for the pictures all. I have more or less an idea.

Containers went on the door.
The doser isnt really heavy my shelf is 4 1x2’s screwed into the frame. Then screwed the ply wood up into them. Cutouts in the plywood for any frame blocking it. Then a single front support beam.

Another option would be a shelf out of aluminum corner trim. Cut so doser fits inside snugly. Then perpendicular aluminum trim screwed to stand frame. Use a square and should be an easy build.

used strong velcro tape - and mounted it to the 'ceiling' of the cabinet. (underside)

This is how I did my two ghl dosers too.
And if you’ve tried to take one down, you’ll no longer be worried about them falling down.
Velcro is some strong stuff.

3m heavy duty velcro will have more than enough hold for almost anything even hanging when it locks you'll be pulling hard to remove it

added a sheet of 1/2 oak painted with gloss white. screw away my friends! also wire closet shelves with L brackets and zip ties are great.

FYI this is a innovative marine APS stand that was no real mounting points when i was setting it up inside.
