Troubleshooting

Fixing feels loose after installation.

Ensure the drilling wings have fully expanded behind the plasterboard. Check that the M5 screws are tightened sufficiently, without over-tightening.

Fixing won't go in.

Make sure you have a minimum 35mm cavity space. If the cavity is blocked, the fixing will not work properly.

Radiator feels unstable.

Check all fixings are secure and that the radiator brackets are properly aligned with the fixings. If needed, redistribute weight if possible.
