To cut or score straight lines along sheet materials such as drywall panels, insulation boards, and timber sheets, it is commonly known to use a guide rail. Guide rail attachment means include screws, clamps, and/or adhesive pads. These securing means are time consuming to implement, and can cause damage to a main face of the sheet material. The present invention provides a guide rail securing device for releasably securing a guide rail 100 to a sheet material 200, comprising a guide rail attachment mechanism, and at least one penetrating element 20 to secure the guide rail securing device to the sheet material 200 by penetrating an edge of the sheet material 200. In this way, once the guide rail securing device is securely attached to the guide rail, a user may instantly connect the guide rail to the sheet material by penetrating an edge of the sheet material with the penetrating element.
