What type of wall is this? - Pre War building - Need advice on fastener to use

DIY_Drew · Oct 18, 2019

Dear fellow DIY'ers

Need expert advice on the type of wall that you see below (image attached)? This is a pre-war building in New York. I need to mount my bike (20-30 Pounds) and need a suggestion on the best fastener to use for this job. The plastic fasteners did not hold up.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Welcome to the forum DIY_Drew.

I'm unsure as to what your wall is constructed of but here are fasteners that will hold up considerable weight and are easy to install; drill correct sized hole; push in and tighten. Good luck.

Kind regards, Colin.
