GeeFixPlasterboard Cavity Wall Fixings Hollow Wall Anchors Heavy Duty (Pack of 4 Fixings)

Great product, quick and easy to install and solid too. Highly recommend

Purchased these ones on multiple occasions, Very strong and sturdy if you need to mount something heavy and you can't drill into studs I would highly recommend these fixings.(Advice on installation)I used these a while back without any problems until recently I forgot that you have to thread the red plastic wire in the middle and one of the the side holes doesn't matter left or right hole and not the two side holes excluding the middle hole.It's very important otherwise if you thread through the two side holes and try to screw in you main large screw in the middle first you will have trouble, one - screwing it in but if you manage that, two - the red plastic wire could snap if you pull to hard you don't want that you will lose the large plastic piece down the back of the wall which is what happened this time wasting a fixing, three - the small screws for the two side holes won't line up and you will be screwing for eternity and nothing happens.(Steps)1, Drill your hole2, Cut the red plastic thread to size be generous (20cm to 25cm) more length more grip you can reuse it for multiple fixings as long as you don't snag it or damage it check after use for damage before using on second fixing and don't pull to hard it will snap.3, Thread the plastic wire through the centre hole and one of the side holes on the big plastic piece making sure the flatter side is facing you.4, Push the large plastic through the hole in the wall holding the plastic wire make sure the flatter side will be against the back of the wall or facing towards you.5, While holding both strands of the plastic wire with one hand firmly, start threading the plastic wire through the other plastic round cap remember through the same holes.6, Holding the plastic wire push the cap into the wall.7, Screw in the small screw in the vacant hole until firm not to much but not to slack.8, Now pull the plastic wire out you don't need it at this point anymore, screw in the other small screw in the other side, (tightened both sides fully)9, Now finally you can screw in your large main screw.Hope this information is useful and saves some of you some time, your welcome! 😅

Great product and very easy to install. The only problem I had was using them to fit a window Roman blind close to the window frame. I don’t think I left enough room and found the two smaller screws difficult to locate after the retaining plastic wire had been removed. However was able to fit the blinds securely. The fixing seems very strong.

Wow these fixings are brilliant so easy to install by far the best & strongest plasterboard fixings I’ve used .You do need a fairly big gap to get the fixings behind the plasterboard.I used larger screws than supplied as I was hanging a bracket & TV as I thought the screws supplied weren’t big enough but that’s just me always OTT😀

This is by far the best anchors to use to hang heavy thing on plasterboard after all other options failed.

Amazing fixings, and really ease to use. For those that struggle, just read the instructions ! and if that confuses watch the youtube video online 5* all the way. Had to hang a 30kg radiator off a plasterboard wall, other fixings failed, this is perfect!

Sounded like a good idea, but I'm at a complete loss how to use them. I noticed some people said to watch YouTube video and ditto; seems pretty complicated.Looks like you've got to drill a dirty great hole to thread the plastic through and then something to do with what looks like a bit of cord off of a strimmer.I just couldn't understand what this bloke was mumbling on about?I'm just going to have to go back to the drawing board and bodge it. Bit of hard board, some no nails and take my chances lol!Once again, the local charity will be benefiting from my DIY failures and naive approach to sourcing a solution. Maybe someone will be able to work it out and have a use for it...If the hardboard plan fails then the wall fixture will be consigned to the bin where it can join all of the other DIY catastrophes.

I’ve used a variety of anchors through the years, my favourite being the Fischer duopower, which are my go to for masonry and even plasterboard for some jobs.However, this time I was looking to mount a 30kg mirror on a stud wall and I needed to be more confident it was going to be secure, while duopower ‘could’ manage it, I wanted something definitive.I’d seen the geefix recommended on YouTube a while back, and had previously heard of gripit but the results across the web for the latter were disappointing, I’d have more confidence in the Fischer if there was nothing else.The geefix however are fantastic. Just be sure to read the instructions. Many of the errors in the lower star reviews (from my experience) look to be user error. Drill the 25mm hole with a hole cutter, feed the wire through the geefix, pull tight and slowly screw using the central screw. If it spins, it’s not being held tight enough. Once the screw has bitten, remove the wire and use the two smaller screws to bring together tightly. You can then use either the supplied screw again to mount or my preference was to use a slightly bigger reisser screw.The mirror is now nice and secure so the next pack I purchased are to mount a TV in the spare room.I would throughly recommend these, take your time, follow the instructions and you’ll have a very very solid fixing.
