Using Wall Anchors
Also see:Installing an Expansion Wall Anchor
Drill a hole in the wall material large and deep enough to allow the barrel of the anchor to fit easily.
Clear debris from the hole and tap the anchor in place. Make sure the bolt and barrel are tight and use a hammer to drive the anchor into the hole, digging the collar teeth into the wall material to hold it in place.
Turn the bolt in the anchor until it expands tightly against the inside of the wall. Push hard against the bolt head with a screwdriver to keep the teeth engage as you turn it.
After installation these anchors will stay in place when the bolt is removed to install brackets or hangers.
Installing a Toggle Wall Anchor
Disassemble toggle anchors and install any wall brackets before inserting the anchor into the wall. Thread the toggle back onto the bolt a turn or two to reassemble.
Use a sharp bit to drill a hole in hollow walls large enough to pass the toggle hinge.
Pinch the toggle arms together and push the anchor into the hole until they spring open inside the wall.
Push with the bolt head flat against the wall the then pull the bolt back to be sure the toggles engage the wall.
Hold the bolt out while turning to keep the toggle engaged or it may spin and not tighten on the threads.
As the anchor tightens it will hold the toggles in place. Tighten the bolt until the anchor is firmly set into the wall.
