  • I would start to worry around 20 kg. Probably worth having 2 screws then. I fitted one the other day must have been 25-30 kgs, it was supplied with a French cleat fixed with 4 screws. Total overkill because you would have trouble getting it off the wall with a crow bar.

  • Thanks. Good to know.

    Found some handy men to help do that and a few jobs now my OH can't help with anything, so I guess I'll go with what they say.

    On that note, my OH wants them to "skim grout" the kitchen wall tiles to freshen up the grouting (they saw it done somewhere). I haven't pressed it, but I thought you had to dig out the old grouting as the fresh grouting needs to be a certain depth to adhere.

    Probably worth also saying that the current tiles have a relatively deep(?) grout line.

    Again I guess I'll see what the handymen say, but would be curious if anyone has tried it?

  • Hard to quanitfy I know, but assuming the wall could take the load, how much weight could you reasonably expect to hold on a setup like that? It's the kind of thing I was thinking for a kilner jar rack that would probably see in excess of 100kg of static load.
