    Vinyl floor stain remover?

    Hi guys, My aunt passed away so I've had the task of cleaning her nicotine stained conservatory. I've attached a photo of the vinyl flooring. She had a rug partly on the floor and you can see a huge yellow imprint left by the rug. I just don't understand how this is so bad. The rug is...

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    These brackets can be mounted if I remove the back cardboard. I have the wall anyway so not needed.

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    John, There's only going to be a few shirts hanging up. 2 shelves holding shoes. Nothing heavy. It's a child/teenage room. Just like a wall cabinet but longer.

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    John, sorry I'm not sure my posting is playing up. A heavy tv is much heavier than this carcass. Many tvs are fixed to hollow walls. It's the fixings that are important.

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    My solution will be baton secure under carcass to support weight, and above fixings to hold carcass in place, 1.5cm baton behind hardboard to fill gap. Does anybody have any concerns with this or additional advice?

    GEEFIX fixings are the ones I'm going for.

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    Okay guys, just ordered 6 spares which are free apparently. This will spread the load. Firmly secure into dot and dab or straight into hollow wall and partly into thermalite blocks with above corefix fixings. Attached photo. Surely these will be enough? Rather than fix in the middle by...

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    This is the gap it's going in. The gap is 66cm wide. The carcass is 60cm. Bed is in the way so will go up against ceiling and just above bed. It's only a box room. I've just hung 3 IKEA cabinets on suspension rail. They come as a kit and cabinets by BESTA had special fixing for rail. Photos...

    Yes, a clothes rail. 2 x shelves. All lightweight. Nothing heavy. The fixings are the most important.I use corefix for dot and dab drywall.

    Hanging Ikea Pax carcass

    I've just purchased an IKEA PAX wardrobe carcass size 60cm x 57(D) 180 (H). It's rather light. It's going up against ceiling so I need to secure it on wall. It's not freestanding. So like a wall cabinet needs to rest on suspension rail. I take it it can't be secured entirely by fixings...
