ANKER WAY - Do it right!

Drywall anchors come in a variety of sizes sorted by size in a divided plastic box. Great price around $10. Those who complain about missing screws don't list that they come with screws. Most one-star reviews come from people who have never seen and properly used drywall anchors. The correct way to insert a dowel is to poke a hole in the drywall or plaster with an awl, NOT a drill. This procedure allows you to control the hole from the exact point to the required size. After inserting the anchor into the hole made with an awl slightly smaller than the anchor; You can press the dowel with your fingers about ¾ into the hole as far as it will go. Using a ROUND punch and small hammer, drive the anchor into the hole until the top flange of the anchor is flush with the drywall. You can also use an awl to determine if there is a hole in the wall, eliminating the need for an anchor entirely. This procedure will bring everyone 100% success!
