How do you fasten 2 x 4 to concrete walls in basement?
One method to fasten timber to a concrete wall: You will need: * a hammer drill * a masonry bit * a timber bit * a pencil or marker * concrete fasteners: these could be expanding bolts that will grip the sides of the hole drilled into the concrete as they are tightened; bolts set into epoxy resin in the drilled hole in the concrete; or screws tightened into plugs hammered into holes drilled in the concrete * a plumb line or level * measuring tape or ruler # Measure the required location of the timber on the wall # Check with plumb line or level # Mark the location # Mark and drill with the timber bit at least two holes for fasteners (the number required will depend on the load to be carried and the size of the timber) in the timber # Locate the timber on the wall and mark the corresponding locations on the concrete through the holes in the timber # At these locations drill into the concrete with a hammer drill and masonry bit the correct depth and diameter for the fasteners you have # clear all dust and residue from the holes # Attach the timber using the fasteners. Note builders epoxy sets very quickly Timber should be separated from concrete by a moisture barrier such as damp proof course, plastic membrane etc to prevent any condensation on the concrete causing moisture buildup and rot in the timber

How do you install grab bars in a shower?
What I do is drill a 1/4" hole in the tile (use the bar as a template, mark your holes with a pencil) with a masonry bit. This can be difficult depending on the type of tile you have. You may have to buy a diamond core bit if a masonry bit does not drill it. Then use a smaller drill bit to drill into the wall at each hole. This bit needs to be small enough to be a pilot hole for your screws as if you were drilling a pilot hole into wood. Keep track of the holes that hit wood with this bit. You will not need to use mollys in these holes. The other holes drill through the Sheetrock with a 1/4" bit and use a hammer to tap 1/4" plastic mollys into the tile. You can now use the screws that came with the bars to secure the bars to the wall. Good luck!
