Hi I have fixed the units by the 2 fixing brackets in each top corner by using cavity wall fixings (brollies) but was wondering how else I. Could fix extra supports.

Thanks

If I ever need to go onto a "dodgy" wall I throw away the supplied brackets and use these steel hanging rails across the entire length of a run of cabinets. They allow me to level up more easily and give me the possibility of putting in many more fixings to carry the weight. On stud walls they allow you to fix dead to the studwork even if that doesn't fall near the ends of the cabinet. On runs you do need to notch out the inner cabinet ends to allow the rails to run through (jigsaw job)
