ABSTRACT:
An anchoring device is disclosed providing engaging means for an attaching member which it is desired to secure with respect to a wall, particularly when there is access to only one surface of the wall. The anchoring device may be formed to provide either secure friction engagement, or threaded engagement with an attaching member, such as a bolt, screw, nail, or friction pin, normally used to fasten an item of hardware or the like to a wall. The anchoring device comprises a toggle plate dimensioned for insertion into a blind opening in the wall to which attaching is desired and an elongate runner is pivotally secured to the toggle plate which may be shaped to form its own hole in the wall member. One or more openings dimensioned to engage the attaching member is formed in the toggle plate. The runner pivotally secured to the toggle plate is of a length such that it may extend from the toggle plate positioned on the blind side of a wall in connection with which the anchoring device is employed through the wall opening and beyond the exposed surface of the wall. A washer of a dimension larger than the opening formed for insertion of the toggle plate is engaged on the runner and drawn against the exposed surface of the wall to retain the toggle plate on the blind side of the wall.
