I believe it takes up to 1/4 inch bit. Anything larger than that , I'd use a power drill.

Use the hammer drill. Start with a bit one size smaller than what you need.

Instructions are on package for size of drill bit and distance. I bought a gauge so that all my holes would be uniform. I don't remember exactly what the specifics are as I put these us a while back. They are a very nice product and I had no problem putting all of them up.

for the anchors that came with mine, 7/32" for dry, wall 1/4" for cinder block or concrete. The anchors are real cheap ones. If you have a problem with them, just get some better ones at at Home depot or Lowes, these should have drill bit size listed on package. the anchors should go in snuggly and flush to wall. You may need to tap them in lightly with hammer. (emphasis on "lightly")

Please see my review (end of May/beginning of June 2013)--I STRONGLY suggest an 11/32" drill bit for the best fit. Other sizes work; however, you may need to adapt the container or your installation process. As everyone else states, it is difficult to get these installed into certain containers & it's worth every penny!

Thank you for your question. The tools in the CLPK234-181L will not work for drilling 3 inch holes. The maximum size is 2" for our cordless tools. A corded drill would be the best for drilling 3 inch holes. If you have further questions please feel free to contact our Bosch Customer Service Representatives at 1-877-BOSCH-99 (1-877-267-2499).

With the drill, I would recommend pilot holes. If you get the impact wrench, no need for pilot holes.

they need a 7/8" bit to drill the hole they go in. The outside diameter is about 1 1/2 ".

I bought a 12" drill bit extension. I'll let you know how it works when I get it.Bosch Daredevil PSBE1012 12-Inch Drill Bit Extension

If you are referring to the tab on top of the tie down, use 1/4 to 5/16 × 1.25 - 1.5" hex head self drilling screws (not tapping).

11/16" (.6875) would be a nice size drill bit. They measure .655" actual dimension.

I'd recommend using a hilt I wedge anchor for concrete or brick applications. For wood use a lag bolt.

I started with a 7/32 and increased drill size to 3/8. This was perfect as it allows me to screw the thermometer into the hole I created.

I just used a 1/2 inch drill bit and used a fine round file on a couple spots fits perfectly and works great.

Use an impact drill with a masonry bit to drill the holes. Then pound expanding masonry anchors into the holes with a hammer: Simpson Strong Tie WA50334 1/2" x 3-3/4" Wedge-All Wedge Anchor 25 per Box by Simpson Strong-Tie http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001I3IH08/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_w1wTtb0D748AB

Use a 1.25" spade bit to drill a 1.25" hole. The package include a template for locating the hole and mounting screws. I installed it on a steel door using the template. Worked fine.
