Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes Gripits Drywall Anchors phenomenal?
A: Gripit drywall fixings hold up to 205lbs with no need for battens, wall modifications or compromises which saves time, money, and labour. The gripping wings allow Gripit to be installed in walls with extremely limited cavity space. All Gripits are designed to be completely removable and reusable.
Q: How/why is a Gripit so strong?
A: The incredible loading capabilities of Gripit are derived from a unique combination of mechanical innovation and physical engineering. Each component is designed to work in harmony to create an extremely effective drywall anchoring device. The Gripit system is not based upon anchorage to a single contact point which tends to cause anchors to tear loose under stress. Gripit uses a unique three-way system of multiple contact points in combination to disperse load and lock onto drywall. Each Gripit component is precision moulded and tested to ensure they always deliver ultimate performance.
Q: What equipment do I need to install a Gripit and how complicated is it to use?
A: Installing Gripit is quick and simple. There are 3 easy steps. All you need is a drill (with the correct size drill bit – supplied), a hammer and a screwdriver.
Simply drill your hole once you have decided on the location of your fixings, tap the Gripit into the hole with your hammer, then open the wings with your flat head screwdriver using the central slot. Your Gripit is now secure and safe for you to hang your chosen item onto the wall using the screws/bolts
provided.
Q: It seems like a large hole to drill if I decide to use a Gripit?
A: With the majority of installations, you won’t be able to see the Gripit once it is fitted. For example, if you are hanging a cabinet, TV or mirror, the bracket or piece of furniture will hide the fixing itself, so this need not be a problem. In addition to the wings, Gripit actually gains a lot of its strength from the large surface area that is in contact with the drywall. The Gripit becomes an integral part of the drywall. If you decide to remove Gripit at a later date, you will be left with a hole in the wall as you would with any other type of drywall fixing. We would advise you fill the hole as you would with any fixing.

Great for walls with no wooden studs. Excellent holding power for televisions and heavy items where typical anchors fail.

Works really well, I didn't test the strength but I've used them when I've messed up on some other anchors since the hole for these are bigger. Definitely feels strong though.

Where have these been all my life?These are so amazing! I had a heavy 25lb framed painting that is 4½ feet tall by 3½ feet wide, that pulled a hundred pound picture hanger( that theoretically should have supported the painting) right out of the drywall. I couldn't use a standard drive in wall Molly because it's on exterior block and stucco wall and there's not that much depth between the drywall and the block. These were so easy to install. The drill bit was perfect worked nicely in my greenworks cordless drill, I literally pushed the Molly into the wall and simple twist with my hand screwdriver and about a bing bada boom My painting is now securely hanging in its place on the wall.I love the fact that it can be removed and used over and over. I love how ridiculously easy it was to install. A basic electric screwdriver, toilet hammer and manual Phillips head screwdriver is all you need.I have many many many many many many plans to hang things that I was afraid to put on these cinderblock walls that have drywall just skimmed over them. It's like these were made specifically for this task. I'm not limiting their use to just hanging art. I just secured my Hemnes shoe cabinet to the wall using these! Excellent value for the money. No more will I monkey around with the overpriced picture hangers with the pathetic short flimsy nails for too much money! Not worth the risk of damaging my art.

Despite very limited space behind my dry wall these were easy to fit and worked straight from the box. The included drill bit is ESSENTIAL to make the right size holes, so don't go for a pack without this unless you have a 25mm hole borer sitting around!The fixing housings slide in to the holes and you can tap them home gently. The mechanism is then turned with a broad screwdriver (I actually used a blunt knife) to extend the supports which swing out behind the wall. Then the bolt can be inserted and screwed tight. Solid fixing, value for money. Very impressed.

Was a bit dubious at first. Needed to refit a curtain rail in plasterboard which had damaged the original holes. Worked excellently, strong and easy to fit and a heavy curtain now sits strongly on the bracket. Highly recommend

I bought these to replace some mangled hollow wall anchors installed by the previous resident. If you’ve ever tried to remove those anchors, you know they leave a gaping hole, even if you remove the collar and push the rest of the anchor through to the back of the wall.So, when left with a gaping hole, you can’t use standard anchors any more, so these are a good option (because they require a gaping hole). They hold well. But, beware, watch a video first and do not over-tighten. They strip easily. I would not consider them reusable.Update:Have more experience with these have decided they stink. Extremely easy to over-tighten and strip, so tightening them down is completely unsatisfying. Half a turn too far and you’ve ruined it. There will no warning. You’ll know only because whatever you’re hanging will sag.

These worked about as good as I hoped. It made really good sense to me that the "wings" that open on the back side are flat and wide, giving it more surface area to grip compared to the old style drywall anchors that tend to pinch into the wall and cause a point of failure by getting the crack started - and, most people tighten them too much!As an experienced do-it-yourself guy, the MOST IMPORTANT thing to say is that the drywall anchor is only as strong as your DRYWALL!!! And, you can not defy the laws of physics (leverage) with a better drywall anchor. So here is some common sense info for you . . .Hanging something on drywall with a downward force is not the same as PULLING the drywall, by way of leverage. If you are looking to hang a TV flat on your wall, this WILL WORK. But I noticed a couple other reviewers tried to use this to mount a "telescoping" tv mount, you know, the ones were you can pull the tv 2 feet away and tilt it or turn it in any direction. Please understand that when fully extended, the weight of your tv is applying TREMENDOUS leverage which is essentially applying a pulling force on the upper mounting screws. That type of TV mount needs to be mounted into a beam - at least ONE screw needs to hit a beam, and then these anchors can work fine to augment the strength. The other reviewers who complained about this product not working. . . Look closely in their photos, and you can see that it is the WALL that failed, not the anchors. These anchors work great, but they can not help you break the laws of physics and common sense. So if you can't find at least one beam to screw into, simply don't install one of those telescoping mounts, or, avoid pulling it out all of the way.I found the installation quite simple and easy, the included drill bit is of course the right size, and the mounts screw in quite easily. Note that you do NOT need to over-tighten the wings, just a simple quarter turn is all you need in order to open the wings in the back. Also, do not over-tighten the screw that goes in the middle, because that's how you damage the drywall is by over-tightening.The only negative to using this product is that it certainly will leave a 25mm/1" hole behind to patch if you ever want to undo this.While I feel that these are extremely over priced at $12 for just 4 mounts, considering the TV is worth $2,000, it isn't worth trying to save a few bucks and honestly these are the best drywall anchors I have found for this purpose.

I had to install some wall sconces in a bedroom with a pocket door to the bathroom behind the wall to be mounted on. This meant little space between the pocket door and the inside of the wall itself. These GripIt anchors did the job quickly, easily, and soundly. I wish I had them for a previous job where I had to mount some items on a wall with a cement pillar immediately behind it. These would have been the perfect solution. I keep them in stock now, and if you're a handyman, you should too.
