Hi,
I fitted a new roller blind in the kitchen in my new house (built last year) a couple of weeks ago, I fitted it inside the window frame and secured it at the top using the plugs provided. It came Crashing down last week!
How do I get a better fixing? The plasterboard seems pretty bad, for the time being I have used:-
http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Scr...ill+Plasterboard+Screw+Zinc/d90/sd1930/p55036
But even that screwed up a bit then just turned around!
I did try to drill a pilot hole in the lintel, I wasn't sure what is was made of, so i tried a Metal drill in my dremel (didn't want to use drill as its so close to the wall, the chuck would mark it and I would go in at an angle! But I couldn't drill!
Any Thoughts?
Thanks
Steve
