We are installing a shower curtain rod in drywall, and on one side only- we drilled but hit an obstacle...? - installing shower doors on drywall
We have to drill a small 1 / 4 "drill and if we hit something and do not really know what it is. But the drywall anchors with the staff did not come all the way to go now. What do we do then, but the short screws and Spawn Lowe's, or we are caught?
FYI people who had been here before the door was a sliding glass shower, which we shall live. But it seems that he had a magic wand at some point because we still see where filler and paint:). Thank you very much for any advice!

Installing Shower Doors On Drywall We Are Installing A Shower Curtain Rod In Drywall, And On One Side Only- We Drilled But Hit An Obstacle...?

I do not think what's important is concerned. Perhaps a pen or tablet. See if you can penetrate through it. If you are to Lowes and see if they have a small anchor that can be used. Take the anchor now and ask the guy at the hardware in this area. I want to keep only piercing though.
2x4in, in most cases. But it really depends on where the rain. When you're down, he could probably check a concrete wall) to the easiest way to determine whether there are power outlets on the wall. If you do not bet stuck in the concrete is poured. Masonary bit is the right way now. so that the hole is deep enough to drywall anchors or perhaps) a different style anchor (plastic insert. Ask your building supply store. Always expect the unexpected.
Have you tried to drill a hole next to the drill must successfully hidden screw, nail or knot. If it is a nail, you do not want to drill because it is the protection of something that can at the bottom of the wall.
Good luck.
is an exterior wall made of brick or stone house? This could be the outer wall is striking. It will take a bricklayer and cement anchors, if this is the case
Not sure of success, but leaving a concrete drill to. Yes, you can use pins if the hole at least 1 / 2 inches deep. Get the right wall anchor made of plastic and reduce the diameter with a wire cutter, hack saw, butcher knife or a giant. LOL But seriously, after cutting them by touching them to use in the hole with a hammer and shorter screws. Measure the depth of the first hole with a toothpick or another, and check the correct length for the anchorage and screws. I use sheet metal screws for almost all of it, because they have to. Make sure the screws are bold enoungh expand the idea of a small block and go much better. Since a shower rod to refute them, it takes a while to secure the mount.
