The easiest and most effective screw to concrete method is with the use of TAPCONS. A box of these screws comes with a supplied masonry drill bit of the appropriate size to use in predrilling a hole in the concrete. The hex or Phillips head screw is then run through the item being fastened and into the concrete until the desired depth is achieved. Look for the 3/16"-1/4" diameter screws of various lengths which are blue in color.
