Mount a purchase on a concrete wall

[Fredrik_1976]

Hello
I'm going to mount an Ikea kitchen on a concrete wall. Does it work with regular plastic plugs, or what is the best way to secure the rails for the kitchen cabinets?

It works fine with plastic plugs and sensible screws for it. I usually place them fairly close in the rail, it's not that difficult to mount a few extra screws at this stage...

I have hung kitchens in both concrete screws and plugs in concrete walls. No one has complained so far.

Thank you. Concrete screws might be easier if you can avoid plugs. What size screw is appropriate? Should you use a drill bit of slightly smaller dimension?

8mm hole, brown plug/MZK, bracket screw approximately 6mm. Holds like a rock.

Concrete screw is sufficient with 6mm.
