I wouldn't use metal drywall anchors, if ever needed to switch out those anchors they will tear out the stucco. They make stucco anchors which are specially designed screws. Keypads are very light and don't take much to hold them to the stucco wall. Good use of the caulking though. (My bad Sam, those ones you used are probably Zinc plated. No rust for a while.)
Jarrod Wood they’ve been in place 6 years, no rust no fuss. Stucco anchors don’t work. Plastic anchors are 2 flimsy for stucco and break. Those anchors are galvanized steel. Also the caulk forms a seal. Have to disagree with your assessment. I’ve used the anchors for hand towels and lights in the bathroom. No rust no fuss.
Stucco anchors do work. The keypad is so light weight, you could’ve used just about any lightweight anchor or small masonry screws to support it. Masonry screws would embed in the stucco lathe behind the stucco cement.
Very informative my dad is trying to ℹ stall one on his stuccoed wall outside his garage I appreciate your time 😎😎👍
👍🏼 nice video

@@Sophos1964 and just about any anchor was used. Years later no rust no fuss. Please make a video doing it better then.
Do you have to use the anchors on stucco? I'm mounting a motion sensor light but wasn't sure if I can just use the regular screws on stucco.
Likely regular screws won’t work. Stucco is layers of cement and aggregate and likely wire mess and other substrates such as wood and foam.
should drill bit be about same size as anchor?
You want it slightly smaller.
People who babble should not make how-to videos
And people who leave dick comments should go f themselves.
says the dude babbling
for real... fucking terrible video
Naw, rather someone in a steady tone instead of some spaz screaming while staring dead eyed into the camera.
