Hello there
Sorry this is different post from the previous one (the solution was to use tension rod).
Now this is different, I have concrete wall and I want to place some hooks in the wall.
I have been watching many youtube videos. I do not have impact drill but normal drill.
What is the best way to do mount hooks on the wall?
I also watched a video that they use adhesive to mount a hook and it seems strong.
I need mount some not to heavy stuff but heavy enough (like 1-5 lb).
Please tell me if you have an experience with that.
This video for the adhesive

and this video, he use special nails

Thanks a lot indeed.



A few small holes into concrete might be possible with a good
masonry bit or two or three and a regular drill -
- a hammer-drill is much better.
I would never trust adhesive.
I would not install any wood backing in a wet area.

A shot pin gun works pretty well and I have a RamSet you can use
manually but you need a big hammer. (Two pounds or more)
The trick is you need to set the pin in one hit.
