What’s the best way to refit the hinge plate below. Used thunder bolts on the others and they’ve not moved.
Many thanks
Many thanks
Drill right through? Plate other side?
Now you say it, it’s obvious. I was over thinking it. Thanks for the replies.Drill straight through and fit some long coach bolts/threaded bar With matching plate on other side
Chemfix the bolts or resin anchorsDrill straight through and fit some long coach bolts/threaded bar With matching plate on other side
Yes but just one hole and bolt right through and big washer or plate the other side if poss.for strength and only on the top hanging, then the other 7? Bolts Cut the rawls out and replace with stainless threaded no head bolts and chemical fix , ie resin .Now you say it, it’s obvious. I was over thinking it. Thanks for the replies.

Its Much easier to place correctly and in the right position.
Heck of tool 8s that stuff has transformed what I do with fixings in masonary/ concrete etc
Depends what you are hanging , 3 foot door fine , 12 foot gate, may last a day. You will need a decent wall to hang that onwould that resin work in a cavity wall which is plastered, thus I have 2" of block wall and 3/4" of plaster to mount into.
I was thinking as follows, 12mm hole, 10mm threaded bar and put a small slit in the end and open it a small bit, this should help it stay in the wall, then plenty resin around the threaded bolt and let it set for the length of time it says on the tube.
Finally mount my fixing
Or maybe I could use a regular rawl bolt and coat it in resin before I put it in the wall.
Any particular brand of resin is recommended

Drill all the way through and use resin would be a proper job
