what's going on guys I'm bill and
welcome to Bill's here to today I'm
going to show you guys how to drill
through concrete brick and cement and
also how to mount fix or attach
something to the wall or floor using
your anchors let's do this so the first
thing we're going to need is a drill
driver with a hammer function so we can
see the little hammer symbol here that
means that this will allow you to drill
through brick concrete and cement
however what I find is a lot of times
especially if the surface is hard that
you're drilling through the drill driver
will struggle so what I tend to do is
use the STS rotary hammer drill so this
one here is a Ryobi one works perfect
goes through basically anything but like
I said if it's soft materials such as
sand and cement or even a mortar between
your bricks draw drive or go through no
problems even some hard surfaces you'll
find the drill be able to get through
however this one here is definitely a
lot better so regardless which drill you
decide to go with you're going to need
to use some masonry bits now the easiest
way to know if you've got a masonry bit
if we have a look at the tip yard
through that focuses you can see that
it's like almost like a shovel head on
top so that's a very good indicator that
it's a masonry bit and you have to use a
masonry bit to get through a brick
concrete cement otherwise your
de-stemming your drill bit and you won't
be able to go through so I'll show you
guys a better view of the drill bits the
top one is the one that goes into the
drill driver so as you can tell there's
no patterns or anything on the back
nothing particular that won't be able to
get into any regular Chuck however at
the bottom one you can say those got
those little slots there that slots into
the SDS draw bit so that's the only draw
bit that'll actually slot into the
rotary hammer drill is the one with this
little SDS slots on the bottom of it so
this one here is a Kengo brain this one
he's made in Germany and this is what I
use for my drill driver so that very
very good tough bits I've had them for a
while and they're still holding up very
very nicely so when it comes to mounting
or fixing something to the wall or floor
these are the four most common anchors
that are used if we have a look at these
two on the end these ones here are
generally used for like fixing light
meaning anything up to about thirty
kilos or sixty pounds depending on the
gauge that you've bought and the
thickness of the material so when we
have a look at these ones here this one
here is just the standard plug that
comes with the outer screw so it just
comes looking like this you basically
drill your hole and you can tap that
straight into that hole and then you get
any noise heavy-duty screw and you can
put that into the back and anchor or
mount whatever it is
you're after a straight into the wall
now with this one here very very similar
however this one here comes with a screw
as well and the reason why comes with a
screw is this one he's designed to not
only bite on as a regular screw but it's
also got the threads and the ridges so
if we have a look at the ridges not sure
if you guys can see try get that to
focus so basically the ridges on here
where the threads are they go in one way
so that means as they go in they go in
nice and easy and as I try and pull back
you can say oh my skin there it's
actually pulling against it and that's
what tries it to hold this into position
nice and easy with a Phillips head on
the back so very very easy to install
now when it comes to these two anchors
here these are the most commonly used
ones when it comes to heavy-duty fixing
so something that's really really solid
really heavy this one here is called a
diner bolt this one until recently has
been you know the number one choice for
most people simply because it works so
well it's very very effective same thing
drill a hole push this one into place
and then you can tighten that nut on the
back as you tighten that nut on the back
of it hopefully that will focus for a
second so as we tighten that nut you can
see the sleeve that's on top starts to
expand and that actually lodges
everything into position in that hole so
once it's expanded as that is now you're
actually not able to pull that out
that's one of the biggest downfalls with
this it's not reusable and you won't
actually be able to pull this back out
of the wall so only until recently say
few years ago three four years ago
they've created the ramsett anchor screw
so once again this one is from rent REM
said other brands do make it as well
it's basically the anchor and screw all
in one so this time around you're able
to just drill the hole put it into place
screw it in and then once you're done
with it you can actually reverse that
out and just fill that hole up so I'm
going to show you guys now just how easy
it is to actually install these all
right guys so the wall we're drilling
through here is a brick wall and it's
got sand and cement rendering over the
top so you can't actually say the brick
usually I wouldn't be using the drill
driver however I want to show you guys
just how it goes through with the drill
driver and then we'll use the rotary
hammer drill and show you just how much
easier it is using a rotary hammer so
first things first we'll just pick our
location where we're going to be
drilling into so just pull that in make
sure it's on hammer mode as you can see
there hammer function on
and it goes through a nice and easy on
that soft section where the sand and
cement ease as it hits a brick and might
start to struggle
so we can see that it's completely going
through and using our first wall plug
you simply pop that into position tap it
flush with a hammer then you can get
your screw and attach that to the end so
regardless whatever it is that you're
mounting that's nice and secure now
like I said this one here is for light
fixing now we'll try the other one
this time around we're going to be using
the rotary hammer making sure it's on
both hammer and draw function so once
again sight right next to this one here
[Music]
and this time around we're going to be
using the dynabolt so once again pop
that into position and then we're going
to be using the hammer to tap that in
making sure the nuts already on and not
over threaded so we want to make sure
that it hasn't separated up here line it
up and then we just tap it with a hammer
so once that's done you can use an
adjustable wrench or a socket set
even the socket set on your draw piece
and then you just want to tighten that
up once that's on that's not going
anywhere so once again we'll use the
rotary hammer drill and you can see just
how much faster and easier there's a lot
less pressure when using the rotary
hammer drill instead of the drill driver
and then to use the anchor screw we
don't need any kind of plug or anything
like that you can just feed that on by
hand get it nice and straight and once
again use an adjustable wrench or your
socket set and you can fight mad Zeon
perfect so lucky last one
once again with the plug make sure
that's nice and flush then we want to
put the screw that it came with and you
can drill that into position once
they're installed guys that is the
finished product on all four like I said
this one here to remove I'm going to
show you guys in a second we remove the
screw the plug stays in there there's
another way a little trick I'm going to
show you guys to remove the plugs same
thing with the one at the top this one
here which was a dynabolt
that one unfortunately cannot be removed
so this has to be grinded off and then
you have to patch the hole once you're
done this one here is the my new
favorite which I've been using for the
past couple of years this one right here
I'm going to show you guys how to remove
these now so if we try to remove the
dynabolt
we can loosen that up I'm thread it and
then what you're left with is the shaft
that's still here so that shaft and the
sleeve that's on the inside there's no
way that's going anywhere that's a
permanent fixture that's why I'd prefer
not to use these ones here makes a mess
I really don't want to have to leave it
in here and cut it off with the grinder
so this one here I don't use anymore and
to be honest most people don't use them
anymore so with these other two plugs
once again we want to back this off take
out that screw
now what would be left with is just the
plug to remove this plug you can try and
put something in there and lever it out
like that okay or what you can do is put
the screw back in just a little bit so
just so avoid like that we don't want it
to separate in the back and I'll show
you guys why then I get a set of pair of
pliers a set pair of pliers anyway and
then what we do is just pull this back
what I've got is the plug back out the
reason why I don't feed all the way
through so as you can see the screws
only just gone through that means that
it hasn't actually caused this to spread
and separate on the inside because once
this screw goes all the way in what
happens is this starts to open up and
then it lodges itself inside so I'm
making sure that we don't screw it all
the way in is an easy way to pull this
out we'll do the same with the top one
we might be able to just pull it out
like this just on an angle that one was
lucky and then lucky last one is the
anchor screw so like I said reverse that
one back out nice and easy I can say
it's a van coming out by here now
perfect and there you have it guys
that's how to drill through a brick
concrete and cement and also mount
things to the wall using these anchors
hopefully you guys have enjoyed the
video if there's anything else you guys
would like to learn how to do in or
around your house put it in a comment
section below and I'll be happy to show
you guys as always like comment and
subscribe until next time I'm bill
thanks for watching Bill's out to
