thin wall anchors How many of you have hammered a nail in your walls to hang a picture, only to find the picture on the floor the next morning? If you live in a manufactured home, it's a common occurrence. It's no secret that the paneling or drywall used to construct the walls of a mobile home are thin -- so thin they can't even hold a nail. Since nails don't hold, you try regular wall anchors -- they hold for a while, but soon fail. We've found a solution -- thin wall anchors.

These new anchors are designed to hold in thin walls from 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Also works on hollow doors. The wide backs give superb holding power that don't pull out. The thin wall anchors cost a little more than regular anchors, but will end your frustrations of hanging pictures and most everything else. To install, follow these instructions:

1) Drill a 5/16" hole.
2) Squeeze the clips together and push into the hole.
3) Then with the enclosed rod or nail, pop the anchor open inside the wall.
4) Insert the #8 x 1-1/4 enclosed screw to hang your item.
