My radiator fell off a week ago. I removed it and capped off the pipes so the rest of the house would stay warm. I put cement over all the holes in the plasterboard and let it dry. I’m installing the brackets right now but the holes are just crumbling and too big for the screws to fit.
I’ve managed to fit on the right side bracket (only 2 screws atm because new ones are coming tomorrow). The left side bracket is the one that caused it to fall off in the first place. I drilled holes for 150mm screws as recommended by one of my friends. However the holes just got wider and wider and now the wall plug is too small to fit in tightly.
I saw another post where someone recommended to use UniBond no-more-nails adhesive but i’m not sure it will be able to hold the weight of my radiator. My radiator is the k2.0450.1400
Please give any suggestions you may have.
