Mom30 Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Our home is hardi plank and we wanted to hang a wall hook on the back by the pool! Can we put nails or what do you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Jones Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Use screws and drill into the siding. What you will actually attach to are the studs behind the siding. Add some silicone to the screw before you drill so that the silicone follows the screw. I am guessing about a 3" screw(s) should work.

John Kogel Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Drill a small hole in line with a butt joint. The joints should fall on studs. Then enlarge the hole in the siding before putting the screw into the wood. Hardie plank is quite brittle and will crack if you hit it hard.
