Where do you want to install it and how much does the light fixture weigh? If it's in the ceiling slab, the main thing is not to damage the hole too much while drilling, so that when the anchor expands, it doesn't fall out. In other cases, it's unlikely to fall out and it won't be pulled out at all.

To the ceiling. The light fixture weighs about 10-15 kg (no more).

Then drill, the hole won't break - put in the dowels (just preferably change to "with little wings"). If it starts to crumble - re-drill for the anchor.

or else I've already had some incidents with things falling from the ceiling((((

If in the void - not a bad option -

Excuse me, what is this? Red...

David

I see ))))))))))))))))))))

Jeremy8404

This is one that works like this Or this option

Omar3497

some weird "dulia", although if it's a void. Everything looks beautiful in the picture...... Best regards.

Andrea8397

By the way, what is the ceiling made of?

This fastener is good for hollow blocks; I screwed the gypsum onto it. If such MOLIs can be pulled out by hand, then the previously suggested option is poorly deformable even with a crowbar...

Dana6523

I agree, I'm just saying pictures...

Steven7574

Concrete.

Spencer7805

monolith or hollow block..... speak up or we will start torturing you)))))))))))))))))))))))

Oops... I drilled under the curtains - it seems to be solid. Let's prepare for the worst-case scenario.

Natalie

The right solution....

Plastic dowels are mainly used where there is a small load or shear force (fixing to walls). They may not hold well under tensile loads. In solid concrete ceilings, it definitely should be an anchor. Check the installation rules for suspended ceilings (if you're interested). After multiple cases of ceilings installed with dowels collapsing, it seems that some regulations have been issued requiring the use of anchors only. If you happen to hit a void, a toggle bolt or another expanding type of dowel may help.
