A brilliant video on the topic. This is the only video I've seen so far where the difference between drill types is explained, and where the insertion AND removal of the anchors is shown. Great job and cheers! :D
Update: Just drilled into my concrete wall and put in my anchor! :D The first anchor attempt did not go according to plan, but that's where the latter part of this video came in handy xD
Thank you so much. This has been the best instructional video I have seen. I am in a completely cement wall apartment and had no idea where to start. Great video!
In addition it is always good practice to blow the powder out of the hole after drilling as it is always essential to securing every anchor. Nothing worse than when a anchor has been placed and then does not grip due to grinding when the screw is turned in. At least I have been praticing this for decades and found it improves my success when mounting objects.
G'day Bill. Great video. With the dyna-bolt, if possible, you can drill the hole slightly deeper than the bolt is, so if you do have to remove what you fitted later on, instead of grinding it off you just tap it further into the hold and fill over it. This has been helpful fitting my gun safe in rentals. Cheers.
My first drill was delivered only yesterday and this taught me basically everything I needed to know in order to mount my TV. Thank you so much for this video ☺️
This was very good - in particular the Ramset anchor screw. Had a professionally installed tumble dryer fixed the the brick wall in the laundry and it pulled out on one side causing some mayhem. Thought Ai would have a rack at it myself and was going to use a dyna bolt but will give the anchor screw a go.
Bill, that was a great video. I am going to install hand rails into my 89 year old mother's shower and a folding bench but her shower has a mud wall beind the tile so I have to drill and secure into cement. I was just going to buy the right drill bit since I already have a tile bit but now I know I will have to rent the right drill to match the bit I have to buy. Thanks for the heads up and the info.
Will the anchor screw still hold well even if it hits a cavity in the bricks? Ive often used them at work but in solid concrete rather than hollow brick. I need a super heavy duty option to mount a barn door rail.. I mounted solidly with large dyna bolts and I was very happy with how strong they felt however after a year or so the weight has pulled the rail from the wall ever so slightly that the bottom of the door skims the floor now.. trying to decide if I plane the bottom of the door or rework the fixings even stronger somehow. Wether that be replace or modify. Love the way you present these videos by the way. You seem like you'd be a great bloke to have a beer with 😀 👍
Hey Bill Great video,,, What would you recommend for space between door panel Retouching wood to brick,,,,,, When I drill thru wood I have about 1 1/2 of space till I hit the brick
I'm drilling into brick to attach a shed panel via a bracket. Does the ramset screw type anchor screw hold just as strong as a dynabolt??? I'm a bit worried the screw might pull out brining bits of brick with it...??? Thanks for your help
Exactly the video I was looking for, thanks very much. I need to mount some brackets around the outside of my brick house so I can run a garden house from the back yard tap to my side undercover area.
The Ramset screw is not all that new been using tapcon screws for years and it depends on how much what ever you are hanging weighs on what set you use also you need to be careful with the ramset / tapcon easy to strip out the holes
The screw with the white anchor is not a Phillips head, it's a Pozidriv head. There may be times when you need to reuse the same hole. You can remove Dyanbolts if you drill the hole about 1/4" deeper than the sleeve before setting it, but it can be a PITA.
I saw you had two drills DeWalt and Ryoal - I understand for different purposes. For home use can I use just one drill? I do have concrete to drill as well. Alos does Ryoal have a Dewalt type drill purpose.
I don't know how much drill I should insert inside the wall, what if I insert it 1 cm more than it should be inserted Or if I have to insert that plastic caps inside the wall and it takes a little more space. What's the measurements for that? I have a drill machine just bought it and it has a ruler on side but still doing holes with assumptions. How to do it perfectly like you did? You didn't mention how much deep the bits should go in the wall.
Dyna bolt, you can be remove by removing the nut the hammer in the screw shaft and with a sharp nose plyer you can remove the sleeve and screw shaft....
Excellent video..but can u tell me what are the 1st 2 anchors/screws called? The red/orange one and the white? Does home depot carry them? Also..I tried to use an anchor in my concrete basement wall and made the whole a bit too big. ( Installing a shelf w/standard brackets) and the anchor I used broke off inside the wall! Tried to pull out w/ needle nose pliers and the tip broke off and crumbled into pieces. 😭 HELP!
great vid, but need advice on drilling into tough lintel. 4 accurate measured holes needed for sheild concrete anchors. I'm thinking of using woodworks drill guide to get an accurate measure. found drill jumps a mm or two when drilling, any advice?. thx
This video is super appreciative. I enjoyed watching your knowledge and taking your time explaining how these work. This is also one of my hobbies too.😉👍😇
A quick question whilst I'm here, I drilled 4 holes into an internal solid wall for shelf brackets, but the holes are a bit off even though I marked it correctly. I now need to drill another 4 holes slightly higher and to the left. How far apart do the holes need to be from the first set of holes to avoid weakening the new drilled holes? Also, any advice for drilling holes accurately without the drill bit wondering off? I'm thinking off using a much smaller drill bit first and then working my way upto the 8mm bit that I need. Thank you kindly.
@@hoodedraider I did exactly that, started off from a 3mm bit and then 5 then 7 and finally the 8. It worked and the shelf is now up and doing its job! Thanks for the reply. Cheers
You don't remove a dyna bolt. You drill the hole prior to installing at least a few inches deeper than the length of the anchor, remove the nut and washer then tap it through the hole and leave it.
Thanks Bill. Im going to put my faith in the ramset screw instead of a Dyna Bolt, How do you determine where the brick and mortar are on a painted plastered wall? is there a way? thanks again
Great video and explanation! I'm considering hanging a very heavy, granite, fireplace shelf on my brick fireplace wall. I plan to use the heaviest possible forged steel brackets (with a lip to hold the shelf in), but is there any danger the weight would still strip out these Dynabolts? The Dynabolt web page shows the large bolts will hold thousands of pounds, but I guess I'm more worried about the brick failing rather than the bolt breaking, or the steel bending... Do you have any advice?
I burned up 3 "good quality" masonry drill bits on concrete. I still don't know what I have done wrong. hammer mode on, ryobi power hammer drill speed 2 around 2200 rpm.
Do I need to check for electricals before drilling into brick / concrete? I'm putting some shelves in an apartment and I just really don't know how the wall is setup on the inside. Is wiring ever run like inside a hollow brick or cinderblock? I know there's detector tools, but do they really work through hard solid materials?
I can't believe hardly any of these videos on concrete screws doesn't mention the drill bit creating the pilot hole has to be a size smaller than the screw. If you use a 1/4" drill bit with a 1/4" screw, it ends of being loose. If you use a 5/16 screw, you need to use a 1/4 concrete drill bit.
Great vid👍 I’m planning on mounting pull-up bars on brick wall for CrossFit. Would u recommend dyna bolt or ankascrews for that? What length? Thanks again 👊
I was actually wondering the same thing 😂 plan on getting the rogue hammer pull up bar and mounting it in cement wall in my room! Lmk how you mounted yours pls!
Chizzy 89 I ended up not doing the brick wall after all...I couldn’t get any good answers and couldn’t take the chance. Cement wall I would do for sure, seems like a lot of anchors are made for cement but not brick. I did end up attaching two rogue jammer pull-ups bars to a 5 inch thick wooden beam using 6 inch bolts. Works awesome.
Fuzzy Flower hmm I want to mount on my cement wall(pretty sure it’s cement lol) do you recommending just mounting it on the cement itself or mounting a thick piece of wood and then mounting the pull up bar to it that way?
@@chizz12 Yea, Ive read a lot of people tried to attach to cement wall and the bar came loose, that would really suck. There is a video (you may have seen it already) "Tutorial: How to install a pull up bar on the wall" It looks like a cement wall they are doing that on. Check it out...of course they make it look easy right :) Unfortunately, I have never done it, so I am not much help! If you end up trying, please lmk how it went. Thanks a lot.
How dow do you when mounting a tv bracket to a wall/stud that there is no electrical wiring or pipes behind the wall? Can you do a video on that? Also, maybe a video on hiding the tv cables away too inside the wall.
A brilliant video on the topic. This is the only video I've seen so far where the difference between drill types is explained, and where the insertion AND removal of the anchors is shown. Great job and cheers! :D

I couldn’t agree more!
Thanks Bill !
Straight to the point. No mucking around. Another great vid. Thanks
What a great guy!
Thanks, clear video and instructions. I was struggling how to drill into brick and fasten my fence post there.
Excellent. Just what I needed to know. Never put a cabinet on a wall in my life. Here goes! Didn't know about that new concrete fixing screw.
Thank you so much. This has been the best instructional video I have seen. I am in a completely cement wall apartment and had no idea where to start. Great video!
👍👍👍
Me too
This is the video I’ve been looking for, thank you so much. Now I’m off to hang my tv mount and tv.
Great tutorial! Straight to the point, no extra fluff, do, don't and why.....Nice work :)
Thank you for explaining in a beginner friendly way 😊
How did we survive before these videos? Thank you. Im going out to buy a drill.
No kidding. I've learned to fix my washer, dryer, screen door, etc. Without TH-cam, I'd be out a lot of money needlessly. :-)
Sniff sniff
We struggled!
Thanks so much. Clear and sensible. Hope you do one on attaching timber to brick/ concrete.
Awesome video! Thanks!

Made it so easy to follow! I installed an american flag pole to a concrete block wall. Thank you!
👍
Exactly what I needed

Excellent tip Mat N!!! I can now use the Dyna-bolts I purchased and don’t have to worry about it being permanent!!!
You can use pliers to retrieve the sleeve and bolt after hammering them in. Retrieve the sleeve and the bolt will follow
Great job, thank you.
So so clear! Thank you sooo much!
You’re welcome 👍
Thank you Bill!!!
Thanks
Extremely helpful! Thank you very much!
Perfect, thanks a bunch!
great explain
Awesome Bill, thank you.
Achor screw = metal tapcon. Nice havent seen the metal ones. Great vid. Great explanation. Keep at it man.
I love every minute that I spent on ur video. Thanks you for post
I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍👍
Great video. Thank you. From Swansea. Could you make a video showing how to repair the holes left in bricks and mortar please?
Great video. On point the whole way.
great video; all content no flannel.
My first drill was delivered only yesterday and this taught me basically everything I needed to know in order to mount my TV. Thank you so much for this video ☺️
His wife is gonna come out yelling, "why are you putting unnecessary holes in my walls!"

Thanks for sharing, please share a video on how to fix a indoor swing to a concrete ceiling. Many thanks!
Very helpful thank you :)
You’re very welcome 👍
Hey Bill, looking to (surprise my son) secure his kayak to the garage ceiling. Would appreciate a simple video that I can do. (I'm handy) 🙂
Hi, look at buying a kayak hoist for the garage ceiling. They are cheap and awesome 👍
Thanks..for info!!
Thanks this is totally what I needed being new to drilling 💜
Thanks much
👍
Bill do you have a video on how to avoid electrical cables and pipes in a brick wall house?
Thanks
Hey thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 👍
If you want to refix the screws to the same hole would you fill it and then re screw them?
What would you fill it with?

Hey Bill
Great video,,,
What would you recommend for space between door panel
Retouching wood to brick,,,,,,
When I drill thru wood
I have about 1 1/2 of space till I hit the brick
Hi, can you please show us how to check for pipes and electrical wires on brick and concrete wall. Thank you in advance.
I'm drilling into brick to attach a shed panel via a bracket. Does the ramset screw type anchor screw hold just as strong as a dynabolt??? I'm a bit worried the screw might pull out brining bits of brick with it...??? Thanks for your help
They all have different weight ratings. Choose one that will be suitable for your application 👍
Exactly the video I was looking for, thanks very much. I need to mount some brackets around the outside of my brick house so I can run a garden house from the back yard tap to my side undercover area.
The Ramset screw is not all that new been using tapcon screws for years and it depends on how much what ever you are hanging weighs on what set you use also you need to be careful with the ramset / tapcon easy to strip out the holes
so on point, i love the humour too XD
👍
Who says Ryob is no good ?
I got one just like that.
It go through rocks and boulders.
Nice
How do you know it's the correct drill bit?
Awesome video!
👍
Fab. Thank you !
legend had it that Bill's charisma charges his tools to 100% as he uses them

What size hammer drill bit would you use for a SG 17 expansion screw?
This should hopefully stop my shelves in the garage falling on the car
Dyna bolt, you can be remove by removing the nut the hammer in the screw shaft and with a sharp nose plyer you can remove the sleeve and screw shaft....

They are ramset wall anchors. Try this to remove the plug th-cam.com/video/FzIK0GFUgkc/w-d-xo.html
U have a video for drilling ceiling?
You actually can remove dyna bolts or sleeve anchors and even use them again if you wish.
If you have a tip on how, share it please.

Smaller drill should do the trick! It stops it from wandering.

Could you use the same anchors for a rock fireplace?
Thank you!!! I've been having trouble hanging thing on my wall. This is the best video on drilling through concrete walls.
Solid explanation, thank you!
Very welcome 👍
saved my bacon on this one. as a complete DIY layperson, the variety on these things always leaves me head scratching.
Glad I could help 👍

How to build a stud wall so you can install gyprock on top thanks Billy jeans
Once my shoulder has recovered I will do this for you 👍
Sometimes you hit mortar next to the brick and it causes the hole to migrate sideways into the softer area. How do you prevent this from happening?
Don’t drill next to or into the mortar, it’s not advisable to anchor into motor as is not as strong and can fail. 👍
Thank you ...good demonstration 👍🏼
Good video thanks, but I thought that the screw look like a Pozi head not a Philips...
How dow do you when mounting a tv bracket to a wall/stud that there is no electrical wiring or pipes behind the wall? Can you do a video on that?

👍 good question, will do this once I get a chance
Snap Toggle will do it but you need a bit of space after drilling the hole then push the snap toggles in the hole
are u practicing with your neighbour house ?
God bless you brother! After all videos, explaining everything but nothing, your video came in like a sign from heaven. Thank you!
