You will need to drill the pilot hole before use so be sure to have a drill on hand with the correct bit size. We recommend these for lighter jobs as their weight rating is a bit lower than some of the other anchors reviewed here. They are made to be used specifically with Container Store products. You will need to check sizing Lightweight will not hold heavier wall mountings. With their unique design , they keep the screw from stripping and will not break during the installation process.
You would need to pre-drill the hole where you want them. Then place the anchor inside of the pre-drilled hole. Unscrew the screw a bit from the anchor, and then use a screwdriver to press the screw down while tightening the screw into the anchor. At this point, the anchor will split and expand. We recommend this kit for several reasons. They are not self-drilling anchors so extra drilling is required The guarantee is solid, but the company is out of China so there may be time-delays.
The idea behind the molly bolt is it expands as you drive the screw in but can also collapse as you screw the screw out so they can be reusable in the future.
This kit in particular ranges up and down the scale of size allowing you to do lightweight anchoring up to heavier duty.
You will need to pre-drill a hole in the desired location. Then you will insert the anchor into the hole. After that, you pull the screw head towards you , which forces the anchor to expand against the back of the wall and then reinsert the screw, you tighten up the screw to affix the anchor to the backside of the wall. The Sutemribor kit is perfect for those that are doing a lot of different types of projects.
With the classic molly bolt system and the rust-resistant zinc plating, this is a quality wall anchor kit. Molly bolt anchoring is sturdy Many different sizes and pieces in this kit Spring-loaded molly unit for extra resistance. A few extra steps than other wall anchoring systems 48 pieces may be more than you need.
These zinc-plated carbon steel molly bolt screws are designed to be heavy duty wall anchors. Perfect for hollow plaster walls , they utilize the same hollow sleeve molly bolt system as the Sutemribor kit does. The hollow drive molly bolt design is extra sturdy. Stronger than the plastic applications, and providing more anchoring coverage than the self-drilling anchors, the molly bolt design opens up behind the wall for maximum hold.
If you are ok with pre-drilling and some of the extra steps it takes for a molly bolt anchor screw, then this is a great kit to have. Bends easily if hit during installation Needs a screw installation tool. Ideally, when you are hanging something on a wall such as artwork, picture frames, or book shelves, you are able to use a stud to help give your hanging job support.
Unfortunately, studs are few and far between and sometimes not even close to where you need them to be. Using screws in drywall or plaster leaves very little stability just on their own.
Hence, the invention of the anchor. Anchor screws are especially important when it comes to plaster walls. Withdraw the bit straight back out of the hole. Remove the masking tape from the wall. Slip the wall hook or other fastener onto the bolt. Thread the bolt into the center of the toggle with the wings of the toggle pointing toward the head of the bolt.
Pinch the toggle closed with your thumb and forefinger. Insert the toggle bolt into the hole and push on the bolt until the toggle wings open inside the wall void. Pull on the bolt head as you turn it clockwise with your fingers so that the toggle tightens against the inside of the wall. Tighten the toggle bolt securely with a screwdriver. Don't overtighten the bolt or you can crack the plaster or break the toggle. One style of toggle bolt employs a plastic sleeve that holds the toggle in place after installation, allowing you to remove the bolt if necessary without losing the toggle inside the wall.
These can be used in solid and hollow wall materials including: drywall, plaster, and paneling. They are also good for solid materials like concrete and brick.
The anchor is driven into a slightly undersized, pre-drilled hole. As a screw is threaded into the sleeve, it spreads slightly to press against the sides of the hole. These are intended for light loads up to about 30lb when used in hollow walls, to heavy loads of about lb when used in solid masonry walls.
These will not hold as much weight in a ceiling and should only be used for very light duty if at all in those cases. These are used in hollow walls including: drywall, plaster, paneling, and cinder block. These make use of a spring action to expand prongs inside a hollow wall. The prongs are then pressed tightly against the inside of the wall by driving the included screw.
A pre-drilled hole large enough to insert the toggle is required. All mounting hardware must be assembled on the anchor before it is installed in the wall. This can be a major obstacle for heavy wall units requiring several anchors that must be installed simultaneously.
Heavy and light duty toggles are available for mounting loads of about 40 to about pounds. These are the best choice for a plaster or drywall ceiling but they can be pulled through the wall material with too much weight, so use for light loads like plants or lamps, but not much more.
These are available for hollow walls like drywall, paneling, and plaster and for solid materials like concrete, brick, and stone. In hollow walls these are driven into a pre-drilled hole and crimped by turning the included screw. This forces the sides to expand and press against the backside of the wall surface. Solid wall expansion anchors are used most often for structural support.
