FAQs

Which cavity fixing should I use?

Metal cavity anchors give the best all-round hold in plasterboard; spring toggles suit thicker boards and ceilings with a deep cavity; speed plugs and hammer-in fixings are fastest for light loads. Ceiling anchors are for suspending from concrete.

What board thickness do they suit?

This size grips boards 7 – 16mm thick.

Can I use plastic plugs in plasterboard instead?

No – plastic plugs are for solid walls. Hollow walls need a cavity fixing that spreads the load behind the board. See also our wall plugs for solid walls.
