Default securing to plasterboard wall


wrote in message
...
Hello,

I wanted to put a small towel radiator (40cm by 70cm) on the wall but
it's a plasterboard wall.

Would it be able to support the weight of the radiator plus water? If
so, what fixing do you recommend?

Or will I have to open up the wall and add noggins etc? I was hoping
not to.

Thanks.


Someone will lean on it. Locate the existing battens, screw a piece of 12 mm
ply between them, paint the same colour as the wall, hang the rad on that.
