Troubleshooting

Fixing spins in the wall and does not tighten.

Ensure the correct drill size (8mm) has been used. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger fixing or filling the hole before reinstalling.

The fixing does not hold the weight of the item.

Check the weight capacity of the fixing. Ensure the fixing is fully expanded and gripping the cavity wall. For heavier items, consider using more fixings or alternative fixings designed for heavier loads.
