The basin was on display as a cloakroom basin with no pedestal so didn't think it need one. Now it's time to fit it there are only 2 holes to secure it to the wall. See pics.

How do I fix it securely to the wall without a pedestal?

Thanks

Looks like a big ask for those two fitting holes to support the sink plus somebody possibly leaning on it!.

There are concealed brackets that attach in between the waste fitting then screwed to the wall.Your basin has a label it may say the manufacture that could be searched to see if they supply a fixing kit.
search 'armitage shanks concealed basin bracket s9138' for bracket example.

The twin brackets mentioned by others do work but we dont know the basin weight,best fit it to the manufactures instructions :idea:
 

Won't work, the basin needs two large oval holes midpoint on the back of the basin to use this kit.

You need basin brackets, the back of the basin then hooks down onto them. Nice large well secured screws/bolts need to be used in the bracket to take the leaning weight

Then a little blob of silicone at 3 points along the top (left/centre/right), not too much and then the 2 lower screw holes to nip it up. Then silicone along the top and sides should do it.

Plus screws through the holes, plus some GPpro on the back of the basin - do all of those and it won’t budge... but be prepared to do a lot of making good if you ever want it to come off in the future.

That'll teach me for not looking at a picture properly .... not surprised though especially when it says it's a 15 piece kit that really only has 8 pieces in it and it's from Pee 'n' Goo :whistle:
