How do wall plugs work?

  3. Screw in the item you want to attach
Why use wall plugs?

  • They help the screw stay in place over time
  • They provide additional strength to the item
  • They avoid wall damage
  • They sit perfectly in different structures
When to use wall plugs?
  • When you need to screw into a wall to hang something heavy, like a shelf or mirror 

  • When you need to attach something to a porous or brittle material 

  • When you need to attach something to a material that would otherwise not support the weight of the object 

What to consider when using wall plugs? 
  • The type and weight of the item you want to attach
  • The type of wall you are using the wall plug in

You can use nylon wall anchors for both indoor and outdoor projects.
