[QUOTE="Andy™, post: 208796, member: 2012"] sounds a PITA. better you than me.... can you not drill another 2 fixing holes in the fitting? and maybe make them all 4mm to take an inch 8, then screw direct into the plasterboard? since its double boarded, you will have more plasterfor the screw to grip, and 4 of them so it shouldnt go anywhere failing that, bit of wood through hole then dropped into place, and a longer screw to reach into it? and surface fire rated sounds so wrong. get some pics for us to laugh at what they want [/QUOTE]
