Removing a back box ... What's holding it in?!
Removing a back box ... What's holding it in?!
I am trying to extend a back box so I can put a double fascia on.
Looking at the screw in the back box I expected to see a normal screw with a wall/raw plug
However I have what appears to be a nail?!
Has anyone come across this before and any ideas how to remove it so I can remove the old back box.
(The photo might not do it justice but there is no screw or thread under the dirt on the side of the nail that I can see)
