Drilling Anchors for Drywall
Skip having to drill a hole. These anchors save you time and effort by drilling their own holes. Their threads offer a stronger hold than
our standard plug anchors to mount light fixtures, bulletin boards, and window blinds. They’re also easier to remove but leave a large hole behind.
To install, screw the anchor into your drywall until it's flush with the surface. Then, thread a tapping screw through your component into the anchor and tighten. You can remove your component by unfastening the screw. However, frequently removing the screw will weaken the strength. To remove the anchor, easily back it out with a screwdriver.

Stud-Style Drilling Anchors for Drywall
![]() |
Create a threaded-stud connection without having to drill a hole. These anchors save you time and effort by drilling their own holes. Commonly used to install standoffs to mount signs or panels, their threads offer a stronger hold than our standard plug anchors. They’re also easier to remove but leave a large hole behind.
To install, use a hex-drive L-key to screw the anchor into your drywall until it's flush with the surface. Then, position your component and thread on a nut to secure. You can remove your component by unfastening the nut. However, frequently removing the screw will weaken the strength. To remove the anchor, easily back it out with a hex-drive L-key.

Drilling Toggle Anchors for Drywall
![]() |
A cross between a toggle bolt and drilling anchor, these anchors create a secure hold without having to drill a hole first. They’re twice as strong as drilling anchors but only about one-third as strong as toggle bolt anchors. All have a bolt that you can repeatedly remove without affecting the anchor, so they’re good for installing signs and other components you’d like to swap out. However, the anchor itself cannot be removed.
To install, screw the anchor into your drywall until it's flush with the surface. Then, insert the bolt through your component and tighten to flip the toggle open and draw it firmly in place behind your wall.
