Screws and plugs for skirting boards

[evoline]

Hello,
I am planning to buy red plugs, but which screws and size should I use for the baseboards?

I will have 12x56mm baseboards:

Thanks in advance

why screw the baseboards?
it's much nicer to nail plus it's faster and cheaper

Or you can buy a thin wide double-sided tape. Using plugs for floor moldings feels insanely bothersome.

It's a concrete wall, is it possible with nails?
It would be nice of you to link the nails or tape you mean.

But if I nail, I'll probably pull the whole wall again when the moldings need to be removed.
Probably plug and screw.

Thanks in advance

It's a concrete wall, can you use nails?
It would be nice of you if you could link the nails or tape you mean.

But if I nail, I might end up pulling the whole wall with it when the moldings are removed.
Probably going to use plugs and screws.

Thanks in advance

nails I absolutely think you should go for.
no problem to dismantle the moldings later just use a crowbar.
They look so much nicer, you can even have the nails lacquered in the correct color so that they blend into the molding.

https://www.bauhaus.se/sockelskruv-6st-fp.html I usually use these, there are a few different variations. I usually measure where I want the screw on the trim, then screw in the screw against the wall so I get an exact mark where I should drill and plug. Good luck!

Here is an example, but just google sockelspik and you'll find tons.

previously, what is called cut nails were used, is it out of fashion?

Silicone/glue I used on our previous concrete walls. No problem at all to make it look nice!

 

[Minikubik]

In the past, what is called cut nails were used, is it out of fashion?

They still exist, but are rarely used. Now it's mostly screws, the type of nail hul showed, dyckert picka or glue I think.

If it's a lättbetong wall, there is white listspik: https://www.beijerbygg.se/store/privat/fästdon/spik/spik-övrigt/listspik-lackad-vit?artikel=470527

Is it possible to use these wood screws but in a different size with a red plug?
They are much cheaper than the Minikubik ones linked, which cost 84kr for 6 pieces.

I think I'll skip nails, it was nailed before and removed the list and wall with a crowbar.
I wanted to be able to remove the list without damaging the wall.

Thanks for all the tips

It probably works, the thing with sockelskruv is that they have a small head. Google sockelskruv and there are plenty and surely cheaper than the ones I linked.

Does this work with red plugs?

No, for a red plug you need a screw that is 4-5 mm in diameter: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plugg#Plastplugg
The molding screw you linked to is 3 mm.
