@derkarhu5079 Год назад

the 2nd anchor he showed, was not installed properly...there are 'wings' that you can see, and they require that you have a long enough plug for the wings to be on the back side of the panel AND you need to drive the screw so that the wings expand...that means that you need to drive the screw flush to the wall, and a couple of turns more, *then* back the screw out just a turn or so, to allow for your hanging wire, or the slip-on hanger...

My father was a telephone installer and he saved boatloads of fasteners over the decades. Several years ago he gave me a ton of those 1970s butterfly fasteners you mentioned... I was hoping you were going to show them in this video but oh well! Anyhow, great content again!

@ginacirelli1581 4 года назад

They still sell them as "plant hangers" with hooks attached. I recently wanted to swag my dining room chandelier so it would hang over the middle of my table and this is what I used.

@thebundok 4 года назад

Those types are the de-facto drywall hanger here in Norway. They call them Molly Bolts. I use them all the time! In fact the plastic, non-screw types are only marketed as cement and brick plugs, not to be used in drywall.

@royt7562 3 года назад

Not '70's. They're still being made and I still use them. The big ones hold lots of weight, but you usually have to hide the big drilled hole with a washer. I've hung 50-lb mirror with them. For lighter items, I like the corkscrew-shaped ones.

@alysononoahu8702 3 месяца назад

@jackpine4347 4 года назад

Jeff. these fasteners are not meant to be tested by pulling them straight out. You will normally never load a drywall fastener in that manner. Instead, the load on them is in a direction parallel to the wall surface. The exception is installations into ceilings. The weight ratings are for hanging things on the fasteners, so a fastener rated for thirty lbs/13.6kg should be able to support a lateral force equivalent to hanging a 30lb weight from the fastener when it is correctly installed in the wall. The highest capacity fasteners are the toggle-type fasteners, that have wings that extend out onto the rear surface of the drywall. The help spread the load over a larger area. The highest capacity ones I have seen are called Togglers, and are rated to 200lbs, I believe. I used those for installing not to drywall, but to exterior sheathing, when I hung an exterior security light on the side of a house.

@drewlong77 3 года назад

The Point he explained in the video is exactly what you are trying to now explain to him. As he said, They ARE good for downward pressure...only. What he's demonstrating is just that, and what can happen if people don't understand this. He does this by showing what can happen if you Think it's downward hanging force (like a vanity or cabinet or towel hook) and in actuality the cantilever weight or function of these items creates outward force. And the important end message of finding a stud location for these applications.

@stemakwest7165 3 года назад

RandomHeroGames agreed, he’s mostly just testing the strength of his drywall

@DAhonda247 3 года назад

drewlong77 no he really didn’t. This video was absolutely useless. The point of using these anchors is to use them in the dry wall only WITH NO STUD. THAT is what they were designed to do. I think even the dumbest moron knows you’re not suppose to pull straight out on them, and I’m not quite sure what the hell you’re going to “hang” and the wall that is going to produce an opposite horizontal pressure to the wall on it’s own lol. Clearly these anchors are designed for a vertically applied pressure to be applied, so why not just do that in the dam test?? There is no way that they are all going to hold the same amount of applied vertical weight. Had he done a proper load test we really could of seen which one is better and holds more weight when used for their intended purpose... TO HANG SOMETHING WHERE THERE IS NO STUD. Sometimes that needs to be done ya know.

Love your sense of humor and making a boring topic feel like something cool and fun! I always wondered about different dry wall anchors cause at the end of the day it’s still just dry wall! It will bust out easy no matter what you use, I learned the length for the dry wall and stud needs a longer screw so it supports, so I feel more confident now, I’m redesigning my closet shelves and wash room shelving. Thank you for the lesson!

@nicolesetterfield 3 года назад

Phillip Waldo good call! Does anyone know if this is the same in the UK?

@commoncentstx 3 года назад

You guys are giving people false confidence in a really dangerous way. It's not fair game. He says the contractor has liability insurance for that, but how do you find out who put in a wire 40 years ago after it kills your spouse? You can't. And even if you could, you couldn't prove whether or not it has been touched since they put it in. If you have a brand spanking new house and drill through a wire, maybe you could go after them, but if someone gets shocked and it does permanent damage to them, or your house gets flooded, is it still fair game then? Moral of the story: just because there is a code rule in place, doesn't mean you can just blindly drill anywhere as long as you don't go too deep. If you're within a foot or so of the height of the outlets and there are outlets nearby, I would be incredibly careful with how I drill. I also wouldn't decide to nail in my floor moulding right in line with the supply valves for my toilet either. Always turn the power or water off if you can before drilling in a risky spot. Other things to consider: screws can and do go through nail plates all the time, and plumbers, electricians, and HVAC techs can actually notch the side of a stud to fit something if they need to. Yes, it has to be protected, but it is your house that gets damaged or you that gets hurt, so you have to protect yourself. I may sound rude or blunt, but electricity and natural gas kill people all the time, so this is a serious issue.

There is one other "hollow wall fastener" sold at building product suppliers and it is called the "Snaptoggle" which would put your shoulder out on both a shear test and your pull out test. It is an improved version of the butterfly bolt and is similiar yet much better than your last fastener in your line of fasteners tested. It is also sold by one of the most common suppliers/manufacturers Paulins. When I am hired to hang a heavy item on a drywall wall where no stud is in the best position this is my go to that holds at least a couple hundred pounds IN DRYWALL.

Me too. I would be more independent. Nowadays you could not rely on a "carpenter" because you are better off doing yourself.

Your video is helpful and encouraging. Thank you for showing the comparison and the truth about drywall. Anchor’s are frustrating.

I’m an electrician, and sometimes the space is too cramped to get that hole for my wire that far into the stud, so we put a Dottie plate (thin metal plate) over where that hole is so you can’t put a screw there, to protect my wire.

@cwbywy9544 3 года назад

It's actually code to do this.

Its like putting a firewall to protect from unauthorised access. Btw if that drill though your dottie plate then it might hold much better than this hold and maybe he can literally hang his whole weight on that holding item.

Thats why we use EMT in Chicago. Only place we use plates is on a notch.

Learned a lot of this stuff from my second wife. Her fist husband was a contractor. She called it "furring in" where you fill the space between studs with 2x material where we were going to hang heavy material. Sometimes we filled the gap between studs with 1/2" plywood if we did not know the precise location on a wall for a big TV mount. Grantee, you put one of those flip toggle mounts through that plywood and more then the grip on your hammer will come off in your hands before that mount will budge. BTW all of our towel racks have passed the two grand kids swinging from towels at Nana's test.

@Mantis858585 Год назад

We always called it "adding backing". "Furring out" means adding paper strips to 2x4 walls before drywall to make walls absolutely straight.

@alma.702 2 года назад

Thank you for making this video, I have been making so many holes on my walls trying to hang a shelf and fix wobbly fixtures. The worst part is my husband can do it in seconds, yet it's been 8 months. I will be following your instructions later today. Now I need to go watch your video on how to patch up all my holes on the walls 🤦‍♀️ thank you again.

@michaeljamierickett3806 Год назад

This helped me so much! I'm moving next week, and I completely forgot to check the type of wall before I bought some shelving units. So I was pretty bummed and didn't know what to do. But now I have a better understanding. Also, love your personality!

@jessedaub6482 3 года назад

Omg thank you thank you thank you, I was hanging shelves and getting so frustrated bc they started falling off when I put the slightest bit of weight on them, did everything text book with the anchors, thinking I’m incompetent and/or going crazy in the process bc my shelves simply would not stay put. Now I have my answer and the solution! Plus I really enjoyed this video 🤗🤗

Great vid. I'm putting up shelves that have brackets at 59 and 1/2 in apart from each other so finding a stud that equal apart on both sides is impossible. At least you showed some options that can go straight into drywall that are a little bit more helpful than going straight in with flimsy plastic plugs

@rajpalfile4676 2 года назад

Better to put up a strip of plywood, mount the ply to the studs, then hang your cabinets where ever you wish.

@robinnelson18 2 года назад

@MStar10 2 года назад

@@rajpalfile4676 how do you do that without making a mess and ripping out the wall to get access? Seems like a lot extra work?

@rajpalfile4676 2 года назад

@@MStar10 I mean put the ply on the outside of the dry wall.That way you spread the load and pick up a couple of studs. Wall plugs only hold around 30 lbs. Give or take. Depending on how far away from the stud it is.

The old toggle bolts of the ‘70’s. I think during the ‘60’s and 70’s we added another ton of wight to our house with those things. Another great video Jeff!
