GripIt Starter Kit

After watching various reviews on YouTube about different fixings, I landed on GripIts, and I am so glad I did.This starter kit gives you everything you need (bits, fixings, bolts/screws). They give a strong hold, and are super sturdy for fixing to hollow plasterboard. We have a couple holding up a heavy mirror in our living area and that sucker’s not going anywhere.These are my go-to fixings for plasterboard, and I still order more of them from time-to-time. Highly recommend.

If you are like me and live in a modern home that has dot and dabbed plaster boarded walls on the ground floor and studded walls on the first floor and are scared of trying to hang anything on the wall, well let me assure you with this kit of different sizes of fixings you can't go wrong and they work perfectly. No filling up over sized holes because the plasterboard has crumbled whilst trying to fix anything to it. The kit has 4 different sizes of plasterboard fixings from hanging mirrors to the wall to big fixings that able to hold your big 60" flat screen tv wall bracket. The kit comes with everything from drill bit to screws, so no need to buy anything else to go with this kit apart from a tool that removes any plasterboard adhesive, from around a hole that you drilled in not knowing it was there, this tool is only an extra few pounds which is well worth it.

Now a days all new homes are made from plaster board walls so you think twice when putting up something heavy like a TV unit, TV or mirror on the wall.They're so simple to use, just need to drill a hole and push the GripIt in and using a screw driver, open the wings to secure it in placeI assure that these GripIt are strong and will hold just about anything. My Ikea TV unit alone weighs around 50KG plus its content and no sign of any damage. The TV mount is one of those which rotates and it is moved around on a daily basis and haven't had any issues and holds like it was put up yesterday. The Mirror is a large and weighs what feels like a ton.

If you try to reuse the fitting, the small plastic lug on the cam can break and then the cam will not retract so the fitting will not cone out.

Just moved to a new house with ‘dot and dab’ walls after living in a stone-walled house for 25 years. Goodbye ordinary Rawlplugs! I’ve found the red plugs most useful for shelves and heavy pictures. As long as you can get over drilling 18mm or 20mm holes in your plasterboard (bits supplied) the system works incredibly well. Just be sure that’s where you want the picture hanging! Measure twice drill once. They do seems to hold a fair weight and none of the 20 or so I’ve installed have loosened.

I had fixed using raw plugs several time but shelves had worked loss these fixings simple to use have made the shelves solid fix to plaster board wall

Excellent hold, even on heavy objects like TV but some of the screws used to twist the wings sometimes snap making it difficult to turn the wings and making it near on impossible to remove should you need to

Having lived in stud wall/plasterboard type homes my entire life I have gone through my fair share of plasterboard fixings over the years. I have tried pretty much most types on the market with varying levels of success.These fixings are the best I have used. If I'm honest I was initially concerned over the size of hole you need to drill in order to use these, but once I got past that thought then it was all plain sailing. Easy to use and provided you select the correct size for your project then you can get a really good firm hold with little effort. I never use any other fixing now. They are quite pricey normally imo but are not too bad when on offer.
