"I bought them to hand my projector screen to the ceiling....."
"Bear in mind though that you do have to screw whatever tightly up to the wall - I have some shelves that kind of hook on to a screw protruding 1/4 inch from the wall - alas these wouldn't work in this situation."
"The only real negative with these is that they don't get pulled seamlessly to the surface you're attaching to, but that is SUCH a small issue!"
"Easy to use and works well for its intended purpose."
"If you want to hang a TV or a clothing hanger rack, than these are the way to go."
"I purchased these to replace poorly designed fasteners that came with a towel bar I'd purchased."
"Very easy and straightforward instructions to follow."
The TOGGLER Toggle TA hollow-door anchor provides a firm hold in 1/8"- to 1/4"-thick hollow-core doors and thin panels, includes #8 x 1-1/4" screws, and is made in USA. The anchor hammers into a 5/16" drilled hole until flush with the mounting material's surface. Warning: Use one-fourth or less of listed maximum values for safe working loads (as required by local regulations). Anchors provide reinforcement to a fastener that would otherwise have insufficient hold in substrates such as concrete, brick, stone, drywall, or other materials for a particular application. Anchors provide support through various methods, including expansion from within or behind the substrate or even adhesive compounds.

The anchor requires a 1/2"-13 UNC-threaded metal bolt with a minimum length equal to the thickness of the item being fastened and the thickness of the mounting material plus 1/2". The anchor channel will not rotate when installing the bolt, whether installing by hand or with a screw gun, and will stay in place if the bolt is removed to facilitate fixture and screw changes. The anchor consists of a corrosion-resistant zinc-plated steel anchor channel that inserts through a 3/4" drilled hole in walls, ceilings, or floors and installs against the back side of the mounting material; plastic straps attached to the channel that position it into place; and a plastic cap that slides down the straps and presses into the drilled hole firmly to lock the anchor channel in place behind the mounting material. The item being fastened affixes to the mounting material by inserting a bolt through the item, into the drilled hole, and through the anchoring channel behind the material and tightening.

"good value vs hardware store or home center."
"If you have an application where your concrete is hollow (16"x8"x8" Cinder block - I used large ones to mount 2x10 framing lumber), this is useful as long as you mount in the hollow sections of the block and stay away from the mortar joints or the webs."
"These toggles went in super easy and it seems to be held very well, feels almost as sturdy as bolting into a stud."
"Just be careful that this doesn't include the 1/2 bolt for the wall."
"Only thing I could find that would hold in thin wall hollow block."
"Used these in a sheet rock wall with a thin metal stud."

I looked at a local hardware store and it was going to cost an arm and a leg, so as with everything it seems, I went on Amazon to hunt for a better deal. This could also be done with a hack saw, but the sound of air tools and the sight of all the sparks will give you serious street cred with your neighbors."

Find Best Price at Amazon"It's probably not just the fault of this company making these anchors, as the bolt manufacturers seem to be much lower quality in their threading than past years, but when you combine the two issues, then the user of these things feels the pain. If you can't get these to lay flat in the wall before you snap off the plastic extensions, you will have issues threading the bolt into the hole. It's easy to know when it is flat inside the hole because the two white plastic pieces will be even on the end, but you could still have something flexible in the wall that will angle the metal part once you start tightening the bolts."
"Togglers have extremely useful and easy to install. The Bulk box of 100 does not include the necessary Screws/ bolts. Did not know this till I was on site and started looking for the bolt bag and thats when I found out they were not included. so Had to make a Trip to the Hardware store. Togglers are Great. If they would make two more larger sizes that would be awesome. Love em."
