Hello all,

I've ordered some blinds from Blinds2Go which require selfi-fitting.

I live in a new build property and the window frame, to my basic knowledge and basic exploratory skills (drilling a couple of holes) leads me to believe that there is 15mm plasterboard with around a 10mm gap behind. At certain points labelled on the photo, there are some wood beams.

My intiail thoughts are to use some Red GRIPIT fixings in the areas with gaos alongside a 50mm wood screw to fix the 4 brackets along a 1.7m span.

The brackets need to be 5cm in from either side, and then 2 equally spaced in the middle.

Any suggestions?
