  • A DIY question from someone not very DIY minded... I need to attach a set of coat hooks to a wall that I can't drill into because there's loads of cables behind it. Any suggestions? Needs to be able to hold dog lead, a towel and a couple of coats I suppose.

  • Screw the hooks to a board then glue the board to the wall?
    It would need to be a board thick enough for the screws to hold, probably more than 15mm, with a large enough area for liquid nail or similar to hold the weight of coats plus the weight of the board itself.
    If this

    is to be believed, by the time you've got a decent separation between coat hooks it should hold up...
