This probably sounds stupid, but just after some advise of rawl plugs.
Just moved into a new house and finally I have proper walls We've purchased a curtain pole which should be easy enough.
The instructions tell me to use a 5mm drill bit which I've tried, however the rawl plug will not fit. My dad was with me at the time and we found out that the rawl plug was equivalent to a 7mm or 8mm so drilled with that. We have come across what we assume is a lintel at the moment and unable to drill any further and push the rest of the plug in, but I'm just worried because the plug is loose in the hole and assume therefore it's too big
