How to Install Hooks in Concrete Ceilings

- Hammer drill with a carbide-tipped masonry bit and a screwdriver bit

- Lag screws with large washers

- 4 concrete anchors and screws that fit

- Safety glasses

- Measuring tape

- Carpenter's level

- Pencil

Instructions:

1. Mark Ceiling: With a measuring tape and pencil, measure to and mark the spot on the ceiling for the hook. Ensure a stud will support the hook or use a masonry bit for direct concrete installation.

2. Drill Pilot Hole: If not in a ceiling joist, place the masonry bit on the marked spot and drill at low speed with your hammer drill to the recommended depth or through the ceiling's thickness.

3. Insert Washer and Hook: Put a washer followed by the toggle wing through the drilled hole onto the ceiling surface.

4. Hammer Toggle Anchors: While you’re holding the hook steady against the ceiling. Lightly tap around the edges of the wing anchors on all sides with a hammer to open and secure in place behind the ceiling.

5. Drill Through the Hook/Wing: Use the included screws to pass through the ceiling/hook to fully open its wings behind the surface; tighten until flush using a Phillips head screwdriver bit attached to your hammer drill or by hand and a screwdriver.
