can these kits be purchased in smaller quantities, say a kit of thirty?
No, you can't purchase this item is a smaller quantity.
how many in a kit
Why is there no installation video for the AMF Building Products Direct Mount Kit?! This is not a good sign of trustworthiness from the product manufacturer or of Home Depot!
Installation was straightforward when I installed shutters in a former house. You use the shutter panel openings to mark where you would like to place your anchors around the opening being covered. Use the included masonic drill bit to drill the hole to the depth of the screw portion of the anchor. Drilling is 100% quicker and easier if you use a hammer drill to drill those pilot holes. Then, use the enclosed drill bit adapter to drive the anchors (into the hole you drilled) only as deep as where the machined threads start. That is the end you will put the wing nuts on after you hang your shutters. When the shutters are not in use, simply cover the machined thread portion of the anchor with the enclosed vinyl caps that dress up the appearance and protects the threads in the event you want to paint the white caps to match the surrounding wall colors. Hope this helps!
Does this work fror block (like a tapcon)
Yes.
How long are the wood threads and what is the over all length?
Are these stainless steel or galvanized metal? I live near the coast and am concerned about rust!
The wingnuts are NOT stainless steel - They are made from zinc which will not rust or corrode
Yes, they are galvanized steel. The wingnuts are stainless steel.
It says 150 quantity, but is this total? How many screws/bolts are in this pack?
You get 150 anchors, 150 wing nuts, 150 vinyl caps, 1 wingnut driver, 1 anchor driver and 1 masonry bit.
