[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 1114984, member: 175057"] Actually I don't tend to use sleeve anchors anymore, I use Hilti plastic plugs, they have never failed me, even in very soft bricks and you can tap them through the bracket slot. [URL='https://www.hilti.co.uk/c/CLS_FASTENER_7135/CLS_PLASTIC_ANCHORS_7135/r637']HUD-L Wall plug - Plastic Anchors - Hilti United Kingdom[/URL] There are similar plugs from other manufacturers. If you are confident in getting the brackets in the right position, then go ahead and pre-drill, but if you need to move a bracket sideways, it rotates slightly if the bottom fixing is set. Just get the mast plumb, that's the important part, not really how you do it.:) [/QUOTE]
