[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 491595, member: 28452"] I tried those a few years ago, as they were first introduced, and when I was doing maintenance work in a building which had dry-lined masonry walls. The first snag was I always seemed to hit a "dab" of adhesive which stopped it opening its wings; I see that they now sell an undercutting tool to solve that. The second point is the need to drill a concentric hole into the masonry, or else a long screw can jack the whole thing off the wall crumbling the plaster and generally making the whole task harder. There are better devices for dry lined masonry, which use the masonry and an extended plug. [/QUOTE]
