Whether you're installing a new hollow metal frame in a concrete block wall, poured concrete opening, or wood-framed partition, selecting the correct anchor type is critical for a secure installation. Our selection of hollow metal door frame anchors includes masonry anchors, both sleeve and screw type as well as #24 wood screws for use in wood studs.

Anchors for Masonry Construction

Masonry door frame anchors are commonly used when installing hollow metal frames into concrete block, brick, or poured concrete walls. These anchors are embedded into mortar joints or secured directly to the masonry structure, creating a strong connection between the frame and wall assembly. Ideal for new construction projects, masonry anchors help maintain frame stability and prevent movement over time. Flat head sleeve anchors have been used for many years but lately the Flat Head Titen HD Anchor has been more popular. Sleeve anchors go up to 6" and can actually be extended in 1" increments in the instance where you need more length. The Titen HD is available in 3", 4" and 5" lengths.

Anchors for Wood Stud Walls

Wood stud anchors are specifically designed for attaching hollow metal frames to wood-framed walls. These anchors fasten directly to the wood studs, providing a secure attachment point that keeps the frame properly positioned during drywall installation and throughout the life of the opening. Wood stud anchors are widely used in commercial offices, schools, healthcare facilities, and residential projects. Ultimetly, these are giant wood screws, a #24 in lengths up to 6".
