How big of screw does this use? Will it make large holes in my wall? We need to find something that can be used inside our condo.

I am using this stand without any screws. I just lean it to the wall, and that's it. Very convenient, no drilling needed.

If you use the the lag screw, it would make about a 3/8" diameter hole. I didn't mount mine to the wall. It works fine for me free standing.

I used two screws into my plaster wall, but I'm pretty sure I could have used nails. As long as you don't plan on physically hanging from it, you'll be good.

The big anchors this bar uses requires a sizable hole and space inside the wall. No way around it, I'm afraid.

I have several of these, but never had any problems. Have no idea on the size of the screws. SorryAce Hardware has a great selection on screws, perhaps they can help you.

It will not fit your application out of the box. You will need something more... to install mine in a 5" wall, I made longer fasteners.

I used and recommend anchors in drywall. The included ones that came with the block were nice beefy ones and I used them. I have to think screws alone into drywall would work loose over time. If you have any wobble after the install you could tighten the screws a bit more into the anchors until the final install is flush and firm to the wall. This mounts by slots on the back of the block sliding onto the screw heads so you control how tight the install is to the wall.

I actually had to use a large nail and a hammer to make the holes larger. I picked a nail that was the same size of the screw and took a hammer and pounded it in the hole to make it larger ... Took the nail out and then I screwed in the screw. I actually had to use a much larger nail then I would have thought. I tried four different nails before I got one big enough. Oh and I had to do it on a concrete sidewalk ...I put a towel under it so it would get scratched. The carpet wasn't hard enough. But then it Worked great. I didn't have a drill. If I had a drill I might have tried that.

It depends on your particular situation. You may be able to use 3M hooks that require no drilling or damage to the walls. IF this is a problem for you I would definitely recommend giving the 3M adhesive hooks (the ones with the pull tab for removing) a shot first. Otherwise, use screw in hooks to hit the wall stud and/or drywall anchors such as the tornado anchors that grip really secure. Either of these will, unfortunately, put holes in your wall. It can be repaired pretty easily if say you're renting and have to move out and make sure everything is fixed back for the landlord by using either a calk or drywall mud and putty knife and some carefully tinted paint to touch it up. Didn't mean to get technical but wanted to help you out as much as I could. Good luck.

as I remember there are only four holes for screws. However I would be easy to drill a hole in it. Remember this is not a really tough safe. I have it in a place that is hidden and almost impossible to access as well as about an inch into the wall. But is does the trick for me

You can remove the screw, no problem. Its only be use for tighten in ac outlet purpose only. BUT, keep in mind, you have to not use too heavy adapter to plug in, Other wise it fall off from wall. Let me know for further assistance. Thanks, "Ram green art"

There's nothing vital in the way. We took it apart and looked. They just didn't drill it as part of the manufacturing process. You can purchase the longer screw at most hardware stores or and electrical supply house.

Agree with other replies, screws are cheap if you need shorter ones. I like the product well enough to have used it in multiple homes. Go for it.

It had the same wing screw fastener that you would find on electrical work boxes used in existing walls, usually called "old work boxes". If those work for your wall thickness, then this item will work for you.

Probably too long. I decided to put mine in the wall because if I put them into the cabinet they would have got all the way through. Really I should have just bought smaller screw's but I was to lazy and didn't care.

I wouldn't advise it as its installed with 2 sided tape. You want a unit that screws into the wall. You could with this if you are so inclined.

It comes with two screws. We screwed it to The back of our laundry room Door. It will work on your wall.
