What length drywall screws do i need for 9.5mm plasterboard ?

[Gary111]

Hi, from looking online it looks like I need 32mm screws to go into timber (and old interior window frame). It also says do fix them at 300mm centres.

Most available seem to be 25mm though.
Would those do?
Just maybe use more?
Thanks

Both toolstation and screwfix do 32mm plasterboard screws

Buying 2 boxes of 100 from Wickes will cost you more than a box of 1000 from Toolstation

.................because you will ALWAYS need more than you first thought!

25mm will do . and less likely to go into the glass.

I've done it now, got the 32mm ones, but put so many in I think the 25 probably would have done.
Thanks for your help.
