Should you glue your toilet closet flange to your pipe?
No, it is not recommended to glue the toilet closet flange to the pipe. The flange should be secured to the floor using bolts or screws, and the toilet is then secured to the flange using wax rings or sealing gaskets. Gluing the flange to the pipe can make it difficult to remove or replace the toilet in the future.

What is the reason for two holing a flange?
'Two-holing' a flange means letting the two top holes evenly straddle the centreline of the pipe flange is on. The main reason for doing this is to allow proper alignment of pipework and valves as the bolt holes on valves are configured the same way as described above - two top holes straddling the centreline.
How do you connect a plastic toilet flange to a lead drain line in cement basement floor?
First, in order to accomplish this task, be sure the plastic flange fits the opening in question. It this is new work and anchor bolts or anchorbolt holes are not already in place, fit the flange to the lead drain line as you want it to go and by this guide, using a cement bit, drill holes in the cement(assuming the basement floor is cement). Two holes are required. After the holes are drilled, force lead inserts into the holes. These are to screw the anchoring bolts into to hold the flange stable. Choose the correct lead inserts and the side drill bit to match. Any hardware store can match these up for you. The remount the flange, through the proper holes in the flange, the ones you used as a guide for the holes, then insert the ancholr bolts and tighten down. It Holes are already in place and no lead inserts are already in the holes, simply obtain the proper inserts, bolts and Voila! do according to the above, simple yes?

How do you remove the broken closet flange from a cast iron drain pipe?
I removed the broken flange by perforating the lead filling between the drain pipe and the flange - i.e., drilling holes every 1/4-1/2 inch or so with a regular drill and then sawing through the filling with a power saber saw. Then pried the flange off with a pry bar. Wasn't as bad as I expected. - Dan
Why are there holes in the drainpipe of the sink?
Sink drains have holes on the sides to mate with the overflow drain above the drain flange. While most water goes down the top, some may overflow and go behind and though a channel in the wall of the sink. Then that water goes through one of the holes on the side of the drain and goes down. When you are installing it, you should try to align the holes with the overflow channel. You might have to compensate for rotation as you tighten the flange. In other words, you might want to partially block it to where any rotation will cause the pipe to rotate into the correct position. This can be inconvenient when you are attaching the drain kit to a sink that has no overflow holes. In that case, the holes in the pipe serve no purpose, and you have to make sure things are sealed well so it won't leak between the rubber flange and the holes on the side. There may also be a single, threaded hole further down. That is for the lever for the popup valve for the drain. The lever pushes the drain plug up and/or pulls it down.
