FAQs

What wall materials are these fixings suitable for?

The kit is designed for both solid (brick, concrete) and hollow (plasterboard, hollow block) wall materials.

What tools do I need?

You may need a drill, drill bits, a level, a screwdriver, and a measuring tape.

Are these fixings suitable for heavy radiators?

The fixings are suitable for most standard radiators. Always check the weight capacity of the fixings against your radiator's weight before installation.

How do I install the fixings?

Follow the installation instructions provided with your radiator. The kit includes universal plugs and screws for secure fixing.

Can I use this kit for other purposes?

While primarily designed for radiators, the fixings can be used for various projects, such as mounting shelves, provided the weight capacity is not exceeded.

What should I do if the fixings come loose?

Regularly check the fixings and tighten the screws if necessary. If they repeatedly come loose, consider using larger or alternative fixings designed for your wall type.

Troubleshooting

Fixings are not holding securely.

Ensure you've used the correct size drill bit and that the plugs are fully inserted into the wall. Consider using longer screws if the wall material is particularly soft.

Screws are difficult to tighten.

Pre-drill pilot holes to make it easier to screw into the wall. Use a screwdriver with a comfortable grip.

Kit is missing components.
