I used these to hang a large radiator that had been pulled off a dob and dab wall, all the brick was blown, so redrilled the wholes and used these. Brilliant fixing, definitely a better way. Showed my dad who's a decorator with +30years experience, he's now using them too.
I have core fix all over my place, if it needs more then a threaded rod with expoxy, some nuts to keep the distance. But maybe the most secure way is to make your own dot under the plasterboard and use a normal fixing
This is brilliant, I had to hang a 60kilo radiator on the wall and used this same method rated up to 100KG. Can confirm when done properly these things ain't going anywhere. Worth noting, you will never get them out again, so make sure you put them in the right place 😀! Yes, I learned that the hard way so you don't have to!
I'm a total amateur, but have used Corefix a couple of times and can attest to them being reliable, strong and easy to use fixings. I usually use a bradawl to go through the plasterboard first; I think it makes for more accurate drilling and also allows me to confirm I'm hitting internal brickwork.
Corefix fixings are fantastic used them on a few TV mounts. When using them though I always wondered if the 10mm drill bit was slightly too large. .The negative for these is the screw itself having a countersunk head. Would be much better with a nut hex head
Hello DIY guy I have purchased some corefix fixings today 04/11/23 for the first time I am going to use these on hanging a television into plasterboard wall I am not a DIY person but this product makes me think I can do this I have now subscribed to your channel this fixing means I can get into the wall behind the plasterboard good informative video
Me too. Used them to fix kitchen cabinets ( I used a rail along the top of the wall and used many of these fixings - then hung the cabinets off the rail )
We use those at Clarks Home Improvements. They are very impressive, and leave us feeling confident that our kitchen cabinets will not fall off the wall
That's great, glad to hear our fixings are doing a good job for you! If you happen to have photos of a recent Corefix job you've done, please share them with us!
Initially, had no clue what a dot and dab wall was (casual DIY'er), but that cleared it up and top video. Stumbled upon your channel looking for radiator levelling vid's and now watch all your vids, nice one that man and anyone reading this needs to sub this guy, bloody helpful stuff.
I had to put some cupboards up in my two daughter's bedroom when we re-decorated, I found these recommended on another DIY channel(sorry!), I have to say they are absolutely brilliant.
Used these for several radiator replacements and a TV mount. They are very good. My only tip - is to hammer the metal rod in place prior to installing in the wall. I've had a couple where the wall plug face snaps off whilst hammering the rod in.
Would this fixing crack a wall tile which has been installed on a dot and dab wall ? I have a heavy tower unit to fit, do you think the hole in the tile should be 11mm and then 10mm throttle plasterboard and wall, I just think that if you hammer the metal tube in it may crack the tile
Cheers for that. Pretty handy when it comes to DIY but every house ive lived in has had solid brick walls, now im in a newbuild with plasterboard walls so this helped massively. Cheers
Love these. Use them all over my place. Only issue has been where the plasterboard is poorly supported by minimal dabs - these fixings will pull the plasterboard into the block work given the chance, especially if there are unsupported joins
Couldn't agree with you more. We hung an extremely heavy mirror using these fixings, and nothing else (at least so I think) would have worked as well. Fantastic presentation, and particularly so if you've never used these fixings.
Great video. Complete noob here. I want to ask how do you know if your wall is a dot and dab plasterboard wall? What type of walls are there and how can you identify them? I am trying to hang my tv, but it doesn't seems to have any bricks or solid concrete at the back.
Hi there, often you can tell a dot and dab wall by knocking on it, if some spots sound hollow and some solid then it might be a dot & dab wall (the spots that sound solid would be where the "dots" of adhesive are attaching the plasterboard to the masonry). If the wall you're trying to hang your TV on doesn't have any masonry behind the plasterboard, it might be just a stud wall ie plasterboard fixed to a framework of timber studs. In that case the best option would be to find out where the studs are and fix your TV bracket to them with wood screws. If you can, you can always drill a small test hole in the same wall somewhere out of the way to get a better idea of what's behind the plasterboard, just check for cables or pipes first!
I hung me a 1200x800 vertical radiator weighing in at about 45kgs empty so I reckon 65kg with water in it. I used the normal brackets which take 2 fixings each so used 8 of these. I was very very nervous about putting it on the wall as it weighs so much but with Corefix fixings it feels like I could hang my 13st lump on it as well... Tad pricey but they do a great job.
Does the metal core go inside the fixing? what's stopping it going all the way in (from over tightening the screw?) And does it compensate for difference of thickness of air gap? I'm sure this would be obvious if I had some in my hands to look at.
Great video. Added benefit the screws (with washer) are smaller than the supplied bolts, allowing for a bit of levelling room on the bracket. If using SDS, I'd start with a smaller bit first as a pilot, if a novice. As I said, great video again, always bang on mate 👍
Thanks for the vid, I've never seen plugs with metal inserts like this. Definitely worth trying in the shown scenario, where you've got plasterboard and concrete blocks behind it with a little gap in between. Also, here is a thought: many a time the screw is a bit longer than the plastic plug, so it would be advisable to mark the depth of drilling on your drillbit according to the length of the screw, not the plug. And when you don't remove the dust from the drilled hole, it might be difficult to insert the plug. That's another reason to drill a bit deeper - then you dont have to worry about the dust, as it will get pushed into the end of the hole.
They're good for fixing small things to walls (small in size, not necessarily a light load), as you say they stop the board getting crushed. But I would have thought that a bracket like that would spread the load so much that a regular plug inserted into the actual wall, either pushed through behind the board or long enough to reach through (like the corefix) would be fine.
I want to use these to hang my new kitchen wall units. My plasterboard is 12mm battern is 30mm then 100mm blockwork , is 100mm corefixing long enough do you think 58mm into the bock is plenty i think? Great video.
I never miss one of this guys videos, he’s my reliable go to if I need to know anything DIY, Why 🤔 because he’s brilliant 👌can’t be beaten on info ! Thank you & keep up the great work !
Can you please do a video on measuring lengths when doing mitres for say kitchen cornice, I don’t have any problems finding the angles it’s the lengths & you always explain everything in simple terms, it appears nobody has made a video on RUclips about this subject ! Thanks
Would these work for a folding weight rig to go through the cavity into the brick? Was debating on cutting out the bracket size in the plaster and sticking ply to the brick to fill void and screw through it all to secure
I live in a timber framed house so no actual solid walls just stud work where I have to use the metal self drill fixings I can only guess that hanging such items on walls like this is a “no-go”
I’m in a timber framed house too sid. Personally I’d cut a piece of the pasteboard out and screw in some batons between the studs where you want to fix the brackets to. You can then just use wood screws to fix the bracket to the wall, but it would mean some patching up
I advised my son to use CoreFix when hanging his TV to d&d. However he wouldn’t pat that little bit extra so we used normal plugs. Not saying it was right,but his TV is still attached to the wall after 5 years.
Any tips for going through insulation backed plasterboard dit &dab dry lining? The plasterboard (with the insulation on it), plus the dot and dab all adds up to about 100mm!
I use expanding board fixings in that situation or the grip it ones.that gap between board and wall is your friend whereas with dot and. Dab the void is neither here or there. But in all situations avoid-the screw in type they are crap and leave you in a world of pain when they fail
@@garyjohnson5069 you can also use the expanding board fixings on a dot and dab wall, I need a 10mm hole for the ones I use and just drill into the block work behind the dot and dab and that'll give you the clearance that you need for the fixing to go into. If by chance you hit a dab the fixings will still work, using the setting tool to install the fixing it will expand inside the dab acting like a Rawl plug, you'll never get it back out once in 👍
Looking to install a Swing to a plasterboard ( crazy I know) using a bar (supports up to 120kg weight) across so the fittings will be to the left and side of the wall. Basically it's the bar that we are looking to screw to the wall (a plasterboard) on both sides. Do u reckon these Corefix fittings will help? Better still, have you got any idea the maximum weight it can support? Btw your page is a saviour, i am going to perfect my skills watching it . Thank you so much
Hello.. I have a dot and dab insulated plasterboard wall.. The insulated plasterboard itself is 50mm in total (12.5mm plasterboard + 37.5 insulation per new standard) Would this screw type work , I imagine No as the steel sleeve is only 45mm long. Any better fixing arrangement recommended?? Regards
How much weight can these take? thinking of using to fix a pull up bar for my teenagers and avoid them damaging the door frames with those over door types.
I would have avoided the prohibited zone near the socket on principle. Yes, I know you checked, but it's about following best practice and especially as someone watch it this might not understand why
It depends on how big the space between the plasterboard and the masonry is - for Corefix the max. recommended distance from the masonry to the outer surface of the plasterboard is 45mm, with a gap too big the steel core won't be able to bridge it. So if the plasterboard is 12mm thick for example, it'll leave you a max. 33mm gap.
M5 x 52 hollow wall anchors, use a setting tool to insert and tighten them up first, can also be used on a dot and dab wall as long as you pilot drill the hole into the block work behind to give clearance for the bolt
Do you have any tips about mounting very heavy things to brick and concrete? I want to mount a squat rack to a brick wall. So safety is a huge concern. It's also an apartment so I need to be able to fill and patch the holes afterwards with as little trace as possible.
How can you tell if you have dot and dab wall? Where I want to hang something if I drill through the plasterboard I then hit something hard. Is that therefore dot and dab?
Somebody please advise! Our wall (when we drill a hole) feels hollow, we hit brick (with a skewer) about 10cm in. Is this normal? Would we not need like 150mm plugs because i can only find 120mm i want to know if my tv can go on this wall or not 😭 (this is just my understanding and i could be totally wrong but dont think i am.. Not that that helps lol)
Do you think there’s a better way to hang heavy items on dot and dab walls? Let me know below! Cheers

That's what I do and then widen the hole with a Philips screwdriver just to make sure it is safe to drill behind the plasterboard.

I’ve got a 36kg 75” Sony to hang today. I’ll be heading out to get these fixings though first. Thank you so much pal! 🙏🏻
Used these couple years back to hang a heavy shoe cupboard which had no floor support ( wife's choice obviously). These fixing are brilliant !
Absolutely 👍
Used these a few times now, essential in my job as a handyman when fixing to fit and dab walls, especially in new-build properties.
Your absolutely right
I’ve used these fixings a few times and they are very effective
They are indeed
Me too. Used them to fix kitchen cabinets ( I used a rail along the top of the wall and used many of these fixings - then hung the cabinets off the rail )
Yes used these on a pain in balls curtain pole, it’s never coming down now,
Really Good

Begs the question "why doesn't the core just come Pre fitted in the plug?" 🤔
Sounds like the hole isn’t 10mill.

Pricey, but simply the best! 👍
Couldn't agree more!
Very helpful video. Please do a quick video on using your brand of cable/stud finder. The one I have isn't reliable, or I am not using it properly.
I’ll see what I can do
Nice one mate. The fixings that came with the bracket are absolute gash!
I've got to put my daughters large tv on a brick chimney breast, so this video came at a very opportune moment, nice one.
Anytime 👍
Thoughts on heavy duty Gripit? I can't figure out if the weight is per gripit. I have a 65" TV, not crazy heavy. Might give them a shot
Hi, how would you hang heavy radiator on dot and dab wall with hollow concrete blocks? What anchors or plugs would you use as these won't work.Thanks
Bullfix fixings are pretty good for dot and dab as well, they can go into pretty small cavities.
Good tip

Hello..
I have a dot and dab insulated plasterboard wall..
The insulated plasterboard itself is 50mm in total (12.5mm plasterboard + 37.5 insulation per new standard)
Would this screw type work , I imagine No as the steel sleeve is only 45mm long.
Any better fixing arrangement recommended??

This is great tutorial. What the hell is a dot and dab wall though?
Would this work for walls that are entirely plasterboard, like in a new build/most new houses ???
This will only work on dot and dab walls
How much weight can these take? thinking of using to fix a pull up bar for my teenagers and avoid them damaging the door frames with those over door types.
I would have avoided the prohibited zone near the socket on principle.
Yes, I know you checked, but it's about following best practice and especially as someone watch it this might not understand why
I understand your point. In my case I knew where the cable was because I installed that socket and cable originally.
what in your opinion are the best fixings for a studded wall? Thanks.
I’ve a video on the channel comparing them 😀
Hi there, just found your Chanel- love it. What is the device you used to find out what was in the wall? TIA
Hi. Great stuff! 👍
Hey, thanks!
what a great video
Glad you enjoyed it

Tv wall mounting including bracet £60 London /Essex and Kent
Somebody please advise! Our wall (when we drill a hole) feels hollow, we hit brick (with a skewer) about 10cm in. Is this normal? Would we not need like 150mm plugs because i can only find 120mm i want to know if my tv can go on this wall or not 😭
