Hammer-In Anchors for Drywall
Tap in like a nail—no need to drill a hole or clean up after installation like other anchors. These anchors have a leg that flips open to grab behind your wall like a talon, making them as strong as toggle bolt anchors. Unlike drilling and toggle bolt anchors, these leave a small slit behind for easier wall repairs.
To install, tap 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, removing the screw will weaken the strength. To remove the anchor, unfasten the screw to release the leg’s grip. Then, partially reinsert the screw to use it as a handle and gently wiggle the anchor out.
