There’s nothing a manly stud loves more than to give you 110% support, and that’s exactly what this gnarly beast of a screw is going to demand! It’s designed to dive right into your studs or blocking. When it comes to installing shelves, every expert - this is now you - knows that studs are your BFF. GRK screws fit perfectly into our countersunk holes. You’re using one of the strongest screws on the market. GRK #10 wood screws, 2 1/2" length are our screw of choice. It will go in straighter and smoother with a pilot hole to guide it.Īh yes, the wood screw, second only to the wood nymph in its fantastical creative abilities and power to defy gravity and produce magical shelving! We here at Shelfology are aiming to build you from a newbie to an expert installer, and these wood screws are going to get that skill set to the next level! You’re going to want to use this drill bit to make a pilot hole in the wall before you add that anchor in and start drilling. This has got the grip you want, to carry the weight you need.ĭon’t forget that your drywall anchor has a partner in crime - a 1/4" drill bit. You’ll hear the telltale “POP!” from behind your drywall when you add in the screw and the anchor opens to secure itself to the back of the wall.

But, when there are still points to secure without studs, these Toggler Mini Snap-Skru anchors can hold up to 65 pounds of weight each when installed correctly. Your bracket needs to be installed into at least 2 studs in the wall, ideally you’re going to try to hit every stud possible. Some of those holes are going to miss a stud and go straight into drywall. In a perfect world, every hole in your backbar would hit a stud, and every radio station would play “Last Christmas” year round.
