Very easy to use . Just be sure there is no stud behind where you are drilling the hole. A stud finder should fix that. The easiest is to use a diamond cut hole saw to drill through ceramic tile and backer board. This is perfect and leaves a smooth hole. Had to cut 1/2 inch off the screw due to it hitting the back wall. Everything worked out fine after that. Worth the time and money spent to install the grab bar.

Easy to make proper location and install, with a very strong hold. I and my customer are very pleased with this product, only wish it was on the shelf at the hardware or home stores. A bit pricey, but it does the job very well.

Looking forward to use them with the grab bars. Look solid and hopefully easy. Watching videos over and over again so when I do it, it will be a one shot deal.

We found the screws included were not long enough to attach our grab bars and had to buy new ones. Then the wingets did not mount flush with the wall upon expansion. We used two out of yhe four purchased due to the difficulties

Worked well
Wingits installed as described and are holding up as advertised in holding safety grab bars in shower attached to tiles on the wall. Very pleased.

great fastener for hollow walls
This worked so great that I started to install grab bars trying to miss the studs. EZ!

Excellent product, easy to install
Installed the wingit beast fasteners to a one piece fiberglass tub/shower unit for a quick retrofit for customer coming home for rehab. Very simple, seems to be very strong and supportive for a quick retrofit. Did not feel comfortable with others on the market for this situation

Lifesaver - Grab bar directly Into Feberglass
I installed 4 grab bars into my fathers house. I used this fasteenr for the tub surround and was able to put a grab bar directly inot the fiberglass itself. This was a left saver. I used the other wingIt Faster -RES, also bought form Home Depot to install the other 3 grab bars into ceramic tile. TIP - this fastener cost about 1/4 of the price of the big stainlees one and does the same thing for tile.. What I love about the WingIts is that they install with a waterproof seal. My dad prides himself as a DIT and was amazed at the nifty design and ease of installtion. Rated at 800 lbs and I beleive it.

    ridiculous design
    These anchors require a 1 1/4" hole and a special drill bit. The cost is ridiculous when compared to using the Hilti Toggle Bolt I found at Home Depot. I used 2 anchors at each end of the grab bar and I can do jumping jacks on it. These anchors cost like $9.98/10pack. Just 2 Wing-its and the drill bit cost over $100. Um, I'm going with Hilti and not destroying my walls!
