Searching for the joist and installing the eye bolt anchor on it will prevent damage to the finish of the ceiling. Here are some tips for installation:

 Zinc Coated Bolts

The first thing to be done is to identify the ceiling joist in the desired area, where the hook should be hung. For identifying the joist, an electronic stud finder can be used and until the sensor lights up and identifies the joist, the stud finder should be used for searching on the ceiling. Once the location is identified, it should be thumped with the screwdriver handle. When this is done, if a solid sound comes, it is an indication that a joist is present. Then, mark the location with pencil.
