How much load can an average plasterboard wall take?
Thinking about putting some 606 shelving in upstairs but the wall is single skin plasterboard. Vitsœ say this is OK, presumably because each rail has about eight mounting points so the load is fairly well distributed.
I'm not going to do a whole 'wall of books' type thing but there will be a bunch of files, a tv, consoles, paperwork etc.
How concerned should I be about it pulling out of the board?
We hang radiators on walls very regularly using toggle fixings, as said below if you can hit a stud that would be class but if not toggle fixings is the way to Go.
