Category: Concrete - Topic: New Pool Fence On Concrete
When installing a pool fence on a concrete slab you may need to use an impact drill or a rotary hammer to drill the anchor holes. The difference between the two is an impact driver and rotary hammers are two different tools. For your application, you would need a rotary hammer drill. Either a Bosch or Dewalt, and one that is rated between 3/4" to 7/8". The price range will be in the $250-350 range. An impact driver is for fastening, and the impact is lateral to create torque, and not meant to be a percussive tool to make holes in concrete. The main application for this tool is putting screws in wood or metal. This tool will not work in making holes in concrete. Once the anchor holes are made, then an impact driver can be used to fasten the anchors in. Thus, you can install your new pool fence.
