We have converted an old kitchen into a GF single bedroom in which one side has a plasterboard stud partition. This side of the wall once had wall hung cupboards but now it's all been reskimmed etc.
We need more space in there for my young daughter. How best to secure new wall hung cupboards of approx size 400mm deep, 1500mm wide and 500-600m height?
The wall length is approx 2600mm but as it approaches the door to the room I don't want the cupboard coming out into the room in case someone bangs their head. In the location I'm considering it's above a table.
Neither sides can't really screw into a wall as such and that leaves only the back plasterboard. The previous kitchen cupboards screwed into the side walls for support but had smaller cupboards nearer to the door.
Any suggestions on how can safely do this and also whether my suggested dimensions are sound?
Thx.
