Not sure how to use the the expansion pillar hinges enclosed with the screws? I need to install on a stucco exterior wall. Anyone?

Instead of using the expansion anchors and risk damaging the stucco, try and get some foam double stick tape and tape the perimeter of the fixture and stick it to the wall. I hope this helps.

If you are talking about the plastic plugs or mollys, you need to drill two 1/4 inch holes. One for the top hole and one for the bottom hole. Hammer in the plastic plugs and scew to the wall.

Not sure how Gorilla glue or an adhesive would work, I know the light has worked for me in it exposed area

You have to screw the base of the hinges to the "door" and the wall to have it hinge open and shut. Past that you have to mount the support bars to the roof and the side walls as well.

I just drilled into the wall and put longer screws in. You would want to use the plastic expansion shields in the brick. Keep in mind the mortar joints are the easiest to drill (carbide tip bit).

I used bunch of wall plastic anchors and screws. Also: the Stanley 819841 Pegboard Hooks which a bought at the same time are too small for the holes on the plate. They `re coming out all the time. I don`t like the product. Will not recommend it.

You need to use anchors that expand when you put them into the hole you drill. They will lock in when you bolt them down.

I had to mount it into sheetrock. So I didn't use the provided screws. I used sheetrock anchors that I bought from the hardware store. It slides onto the screw heads so you can use whatever length or type of screw you need.

As long as you have a solid substructure ie header,block wall etc you would be fine...predrill the stucco

I don't remember exactly where the screws were in my package, but you need 2 screws to secure the fixture. What you need depends on where you are mounting the piece. Included with my purchase were screws and concrete anchors. I was installing on a stud wall, so used the included screws w/o the anchors, but made sure to anchor in a stud. My guess is the were 2" long #8 screws. Take a look at the mounting hardware, I think you will need pan head screws, but don't remember and am not at home just now. I would not recommend installing using drywall anchors, I just don't think many would support the towel bar and weight of damp towels. As for instructions. I'd think you should be able to find the manual on-line somewhere. I used 2 screws to install. Mount the brass octagon to the wall (it should include a rubber gasket around the outside). Place the round cover on the bar. Slide the bar onto the wall mount and tighten the two hex screws on the bar. Then simply slide the round cover over the wall mount -- it should just be a friction fit due to the gasket around the wall mount.

After a full year of operation the hinges are working fine. Doing a double installation on an EXTERIOR mount is possible. There will be a slight space between cabinets (1/4") If you do an interior mount you will need to place a vertical 1 by 4" board at the middle point so you have an attaching point for the mounting screws. This will spread your cabinets by 3/4" I mounted mine exterior, by myself and wished for an extra set of hands to help

Simple use anchors designed for stucco and or concrete. Drill hole in wall, follow directions on package. When bolts are screwed in it causes anchor to expand thereby fastening to wall securely. Please use all stainless steel bolts and don't forget to use a stainless steel washer behind each bolt,, preferably a SS fender washer.

We have a stucco house, and were concerned about that too! The guy I had put ours up did not use the bolts included but used larger ones. I trusted him to put it up and haven't had any problem.

I used two masonry screws on a brick wall - hang the screws and then the mailbox slides onto them. I held the mailbox against the wall and marked its holes with a sharpie before drilling.

It's been a couple years since I did mine, it was a bit of work and I'm a professional craftsman. First of all, be very careful and patient, take your time not to break the porcelain. The original aluminum screws are a pain in the neck, there is a tool included that you can use underneath the anchor to hold it still while extracting the screws. If that doesn't work, try cutting them flush with a short hacksaw and then drilling them out. Then, gently tap and push the original anchors through and in to the base, you won't need them. Then, read the directions very carefully and then read them again...follow them strictly. This kit works very well and you'll be very happy. Hope this helps.

For best results you need to mount onto studs. My unit was mounted on a new doubled stud wall so all 6 screws were solid. No fear of the hand bar pulling out that way. For an existing wall where you don't know if you'll hit a stud I would use the largest expanding anchor I could find. Good luck.

You could mount appropriate hinges in a stud and the side of this or similar unit. It only needs mounting as shown if you're using the door hinges.

Use the provided magnets. Sounds like you didn't mount them on the door when you assembled the item.

It depends on your current setup. If you are trying to find a replacement part, then your wall should already have the mating piece nailed into the wall and you can just pop the replacement unit (unit with flaps) on and you should be ok. However, if you are planning to install a new vent using this unit, you have to make sure you also buy the mating piece that mounts onto your wall first before any stucco is applied (to cover the mating piece); Once that is done, the cover (with flaps) can then be popped in - no screws needed. Hope this helps.
