I am looking for recommendations on fixings for tiled plasterboard walls.
The walls are "paramount" construction which means plaster board with
cardboard egg crating between -- so no good looking for studs!

I tend to favour the metal type fixings in plain plaster board - the type
that deform in the cavity and leave a captive nut so that the fixing can
be
undone and re-made if necesary. However these have a faceplate with
"teeth"
to key into the face of the plaster to prevent the whole thing
revolving -
no good on tiles of course.


If it was me, and I had one of these, I'd spend a few moments with an
angle grinder, remove the teeth, and use adhesive.
There is probably a right way.


Try these, they work quite well.
