Ensure you are using a hammer with sufficient force and striking the nail head squarely. Check if the wood being fastened is too hard for the nail's penetration; consider pre-drilling pilot holes if necessary. Also, ensure the nail is properly seated on the surface before striking.

This can occur if the nails are stored in a damp environment or if the galvanized coating has been significantly abraded. Store nails in a dry place. For nails already showing minor surface rust, a wire brush can often remove it, but significant rust indicates potential weakening.

Ensure the nail is long enough to penetrate sufficiently into the base material. For soft woods, the nail should ideally penetrate at least 25-30mm into the solid wood. Check for any obstructions or pre-existing holes that might be preventing a firm grip.
