Default Best fixings for plasterboard walls and ceilings?

This is what you need for a bathroom cabinet:

Easier to fit if you also buy the setting tool, but can be done without.

Use two of these in the top corners and use two more to hold a batten on
the wall for the bottom of the cabinet to sit on. The weight will be taken
by the bottom fixings - in shear - in the top fixings (in tension) only
have to prevent it from tilting forwards.


why bother with an ugly batten? it adds nothing ...
