Types of Heavy Duty Fixings

Expanding masonry bolt

Heavy objects, such as fence posts, may be securely fastened to masonry walls with this very strong fastener. A segmented shield made of metal or plastic is fastened to a bolt through a drilled hole. The bolt’s tightening action separates the segments, causing them to expand and firmly grasp the hole’s edges.

Frame fixings

If you want to fasten the frames of your windows and doors to the wall, these lengthy metal or plastic fittings are perfect. They slide into a pre-drilled hole in the wall that runs through the frame. See our selection of heavy duty and light duty fixings.

Nailing

When used properly, fixings make sure that the components of a wall are securely fastened. The wall frame’s total structural integrity is greatly affected by the size, kind, quantity, and positioning of the fixings. Incorrect nailing, for example, can cause issues including frame deformation and, in extreme circumstances, structural failure. So, it’s really important to use high-quality, heavy duty fixings in the right places to ensure wall stability. Anchor bolts for concrete, and anchor wall plugs can help you achieve this.
