I would like some advice as to what type of screw to use when fixing a heavy Laura Ashley mirror to a solid interior wall.

The mirror has a two recessed holes the back wider at one point and then thinner so that the mirror sits on top of the screws and slides to onto the narrower part of the recess.

The mirror weighs 18kg and measures 90 cm x 90 cm.

I have a drill with a hammer setting but not sure what size of drill bit / plug/ screw to use.

Thanks in advance
 
6-7mm wall plugs and ideally pan head screws [check they fit thru holes first].
Measure down from top of mirror first to check the plates are aligned or it will not hang straight.
