Default Alternatives to drywall anchors?


wrote in message
...
I used plastic drywall anchors to mount a towel ring to the bathroom
wall. The anchors have pulled out of the wall.

I've used toggle bolts in the past, but they require pretty large
holes, and the holes for this particular mounting are only about an
inch apart.

Suggestions?

All we have in my town is a crappy Menard's with untrained staff. We
don't get any of that "How can I help you with your project" that we
used to get at the home stores in bigger cities.

I switched over to these several years ago. They work well for me. More
expensive that plastic anchors. I have had less problems with them. They are
available in pot metal and plastic in different sizes for the weight
supported.
