Corefix Connect Dot & Dab Drylined Wall Fixing – How To Install

The Corefix Connect Dot & Dab Fixing is a heavy-duty solution designed for securely fixing items to dot & dab plasterboard (plasterboard attached over blockwork with a gap between) or masonry walls including aerated concrete. In the video above, you’ll see exactly how to install the Corefix Connect fixing and why it’s a reliable choice for mounting heavier fixtures to dot & dab where standard wall plugs aren’t suitable.

Installation begins by drilling a hole through the plasterboard into the blockwork, and inserting the fixing into the hole. Once in position, the steel core is hammered in, which will bridge the gap between the plasterboard and blockwork. This transfers the load to the blockwork so you don’t have to rely on the plasterboard to hold the weight, significantly improving strength and stability. The fixing is then ready for the final screw or bolt. The steel core also prevents the plasterboard from crushing into the gap behidn it when the screw is tightened, so you can fix heavy loads without worry.

One of the key benefits of the Corefix Connect Dot & Dab Fixing is its exceptional holding power in dot & dab or drylined walls. By bridgind the gap between the plasterboard and block, it provides a secure anchor for items such as radiators, kitchen units, wall-mounted cabinets, TVs, shelving, and heavy mirrors. This makes it ideal for both domestic and commercial installations where safety and reliability are critical.
