Ive tried using a 1" #6 but holding strength is barely adequate. Is

a special fastner like a drywall screw for this application?

Usually, where the side walls are thin,

contact surfaces wouldn't hurt either.


Considered that but major work to cut-out, fit and fill-in to make the
side wall look decent
