fitting radiator on tiled plasterboard wall
I asked a week or so about fittings to use for hanging a towel radiator
http://www.screwfix.com/sfd/i/cat/25/p1051325_x.jpg on a plasterboard wall. Most replies felt it was a bad idea as the weight may pull the wall forward and dislodge the tiles. So I've decided to heed the groups expertise but also compromise with my Mrs ;o) I'm thinking of altering a couple of decorative legs in order to take the weight. If I turned something like this http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/produc...RODID=19 0519 (but without the angle) upside down and shaped the top in order for the radiator to rest on it do you think that would take enough of the weight off the radiator? Or is there any kind of combination plumbing fitting that also acts as a support. Any suggestions much appreciated. Steven. |
