How to use hollow wall anchors

[mishakka]

Thank God you made this video. I was literally minutes away from ripping the wall out. 2024 and this video is so useful, thank you!

My girlfriend's mum wants me to put up something and I thought I'd have to use these but wasn't sure how they worked. You've saved my skin and made me look like I'm not completely useless.
Cheers.

I'm a carpenter's apprentice. We do everything from sheetrock to building decks, framing, windows and doors, moulding, etc. Your videos are fantastic for me! My boss teaches me everything he knows and I've even started learning some advanced carpentry skills, but I watch your tutorials to augment his teachings and help expand my knowledge base. Thank you so much!

That behind the wall view was a revelation! Thank you!

Thank you for the video! I bought my hollow wall anchors at the local hardware store months ago. Today when I wanted to use them I couldn't remember how they worked. I appreciate your video to show me what I needed to do. Thank you so much!

I'm 64 and decided to start putting my own shelves up etc., this is a great tutorial. Now I need to buy some basic tools thank u.

Twelve years later, still an excellent video and it helped me not mess my wall up any more than I already did. Thank you!

[skjames]

Thank you! You did a very good job of showing and explaining how to use these.

If you hadn't posted this I would STILL be sitting here scratching my head like a furry ape. Thank you. Other videos I saw were not nearly as clear about what is what!! :)

Thank you! These little buggars have been frustrating for me. You showed how to use the proper size according to the thickness of the drywall! Now I understand why some I've used, never tighten! Here in the US, the different sizes are labeled for how much weight it will hold. So, I bought according to that. if it's too long for my wall, it won't even work! Thanks for the video!

Thank you Thank You Thank you!!! The Perfect Video!!! I kept saying oh I hope he shows it from the back AND THEN YOU DID!!! Plus you then put up a piece of wood, which is exactly what I want to do!!! YEAH!!! It made it all so clear!!! I feel so empowered now!!! Thank you AGAIN for making this great video and sharing it!!! :)!!! :D!!!

[BrandenAguilera]

The only video that shows an actual cleat example being mounted with these anchors! Thank you

[marilynch]

Your video was so helpful! I didn't know why the screw was just spinning around. Thank you for explaining and showing that the different lengths of the anchor "neck" matters!

The first one I did ate the wall to shreds but with the next one I went super slow and held a large flat blade in one of the cut outs (to help stop it spinning) and they all stayed put! Watched your weight test vid too so feel more than confident they will hold, that's a first haha! Great vids, nice one.

Brilliant! Thank you so much for posting this! I just had to use two to keep a tall bookcase from toppling forward and didn't screw the screws in tight like that first, only through the rubber piece supplied. And the piece didn't splay. Now I know why! Thank you!👍

[phillipecook]

Great. Thanks. I've just taken possession of a static caravan with very thin hollow walls. This is really useful. It's too good you showed us what happens on the other side of the bord.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My coat rack fell off the wall this weekend. I had the rawl plugs but no idea how to use them! Now I have! Thank you for teaching so well 😜

[lerickson]

Thank you so much for this! The package was no help at all. This was just what I needed to do it right. Short and to the point.

Thanks for responding. I figured it out myself
The hammer negates the need for a drill. The screw has a sharp pointed tip. Worked out perfectly!
