Plastic wall plug alternatives

Hi all, 


Just wondering what people are using instead of the good old fashioned plastic wall plug? I’ve got a run of swa to pull in and am looking for something to meet the new regs. 


Ive seen the dewalt wall dog screws but have seen mixed reviews about them. 


Thanks

  • Right then - what is the definition of 'premature collapse' in 521.10.202 ?  What authority states plastic plugs buried in masonary/plaster properly installed (protected by the actual support it is fixing etc) on a wall, or a ceiling even, does not meet that regulation !


    It's another 'scary' Reg open to interpretation and application with another round of project fear of ' well wait till you get into court'.


    Unless an authority states otherwise on the use of such things and 521.10.202 (or Building Regs - which I have not checked admittedly) reflects that...who is to say.
