bojangles Report post Posted April 19, 2022 Anyone ever hang a skull mount in drywall w/out issues? There is no 2x4 framing in the exact spot my wife wants these to go. They aren’t big bulls….was thinking about a drywall anchor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Millhouse Report post Posted April 19, 2022 Yes. I have a should mounted mule deer and antelope that I’ve hung in drywall with toggle bolts. No issues for 5+ years. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorseHunter Report post Posted April 19, 2022 1st choice: Thinking of Zip-It s with a #8 screw should do it see tech data on the link below. Claim to have 70# sheer strength in 1/2 drywall. These are my go-to for towel bars that kids are hard on when no backing is present. https://www.buildsite.com/pdf/dewaltanchors/Zip-It-Product-Data-2054670.pdf If above fails: You could look at other hollow wall anchor systems like toggle bolts. https://www.homedepot.com/b/Hardware-Fasteners-Anchors-Hollow-Wall-Anchors/Toggle-Bolts/N-5yc1vZ2fkp96iZ1z1r733 They will look great. Best of luck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CatfishKev Report post Posted April 19, 2022 A lot of those drywall anchors are rated for 50 pounds in just the sheetrock. Itll be fine 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
