Concrete Frame Screws FAQs
What are concrete frame screws?
Concrete frame screws are specialist frame fixing screws designed to be driven into pre-drilled holes in masonry. They cut their own matching thread in the concrete, brick or block, providing a secure fixing for frames and battens.
Do frame screws need wall plugs?
In most standard applications, concrete frame screws are used without plugs. You drill the correct size pilot hole, clear out the dust and drive the screw directly into the masonry. Always follow the manufacturer’s drill size recommendations.
Can frame fixing screws be used in brick and block?
Yes. Concrete frame screws are suitable for many concrete, brick and solid block substrates. In weak, very porous or crumbling materials you may need to adjust drill size, reduce loads or consider alternative fixings.
Do concrete frame screws need a pilot hole?
Yes. A pilot hole is essential. Using the correct diameter masonry drill allows the cutting thread on the frame screw to bite properly and achieve the stated performance.
Can I remove and adjust frame screws?
One of the big advantages of frame screws is that they can usually be removed and re-driven, which is ideal when levelling frames or adding packers. Avoid over-tightening to protect both the frame and the base material.
Where are concrete frame screws typically used?
They’re commonly used to fix window and door frames, timber battens, track, channels and light steelwork directly to masonry during first fix and refurbishment projects.
