I used #8 X 3 1/2 inch wood screws to mount the bracket. I pre-drilled the holes about 2.75 inches deep with a 1/8 inch drill bit. Hope this helps. (used long screws to penetrate both door studs) I also added the #8 X 3 1/2 inch wood screws above and below the bracket in the door jam, at about 12 inch intervals. I don't believe anyone can kick my door in now.

i don't remember however the screws are very long, obviously you can size the drill bit to the screw, I believe that is what I did. However by doing this myself I saved a ton of money, a contractor said the i would have to replace the casing, which would have cost a ton of money

I use a combination of 3-1/2 and 4-inch deck screws. Pre-drilled with a 3/16-inch drill bit but only half the length of the screw that I was using. I used a piece of tape on the drill bit to indicate depth.

The drill bits are not marked for diameter size in any way. Not is the diameter sizes marked on the packaging. I just go by a visual for size needed.

I believe 1/2 inch. If you are going to use a drill to crank rotate it, you will need a drill that takes the larger size bit, like a hammer drill. Although I simply crank it by hand and it works fine.

Sorry I don't remember. I am pretty sure one of the videos on You tube tells you what size to drill.

I used a 1/8 inch bit. Maxxair website should list that, plus it is listed in instructions. Very easy.

I used my Black and Decker 18 Volt Lithium Ion cordless drill. I think it has a 3/8 inch bit, but I think this will even fit a 1/4 inch bit drill. You definitely do not need a commercial drill but you want something with a little bit of power as drilling in dirt with a dull large spiral blade is significantly different that drilling into wood with a highly sharpened bit.

My husband measured the bit he will be using to drill the holes for my pulls, and he said it takes a 5/32 drill bit, or if you want the hole a little larger, use 11/64 bit size. Hope this helps!

I also use it for modeling (Games Workshop; mostly grinding and cutting) and it won't fit anything smaller than a 3/16" drill bit. Although if you're looking at buying this, I hope you don't need it for more than 5 minutes, otherwise the battery will die.

The bit sizes that are included are (1) 5/32 x 4 in. x 6 in., (1) 3/16 in. x 4 in. x 6 in., (1) 1/4 in. x 2 in. x 4 in., (1) 3/8 in. x 4 in. x 6 in., (1) flat chisel, (1) point chisel in. I really can't suggest a more complete kit without knowing what bit sizes you are needing. These drill bit provide a great range of bit sizes that insure fast impact when working with concrete, stone, and masonry.

Chuck size is the adjustable opening at the end for the bit. This drill has a 3/8" chuck size capability, so you would be OK.

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

I suggest you read the description better and listen to the other answers. These are very small and precise bits not meant for drilling.

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

most hand drills will accept a 3/8" drill bits and these are reduced in shank size above 3/8" and have a 3 sided shank to reduce slip. also they are cobolt bits made in USA top notch for quality and fiance will be impressed if he has any background in metal work. if not he will still have lots of fun drilling with high quality bits , run the speed low as needed.

Hi!! The bits are not labeled but it is not necesary for me to know the diameter. Thanks!

I used a 5/16 drill bit and a 1/8th inch pipe thread tap to get the threads started, do not thread the tap in to deep just about 3 threads that way the hole won't be to big. I am sure their are other ways to do it, this is what works for me.
