• Installing an Expansion Anchor:

1. Drill a hole in the wall material large and deep enough to allow the barrel of the anchor to fit snugly but not so large that the head of the sleeve has no support. Clear debris from the hole and tap the anchor in place using a hammer. Make sure the bolt and barrel are tight against the wall surface, and the teeth in the collar are engaged in the wall material to hold it in place.
2. Use a screwdriver to turn the bolt until the sleeve expands and tightens against the inside of the wall. Push hard against the bolt head as you turn to keep the teeth engaged, and don't allow the anchor to turn, or the teeth will rip through the wall surface and weaken the installation.
3. Turn until the anchor is good and tight, and then remove the screw to install brackets, hangers, etc.
