holly Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 expecting my visit anytime now from the fao , i was told the other day that you cant have your cabinet fastened to an outside wall ? i have fastened mine to an outside wall (upstairs) in a walk in wardrobe . the reason being other walls (internal) are either breeze block or stud walls which i didnt consider getting a good fix to ,anyone shed any light on this matter regards hol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlock Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 General guidance is loadbearing solid wall of brick or block construction out of sight from people looking through windows and out of view of general visitors. sounds like your fine to me. Have you tryed using a crowbar on it? best be prepared it`s very embarrasing when you FEO does it and the cabinet pops off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al4x Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 you'll be fine in that case, out of sight is the biggest bit then as long as you can't shake it easily then they will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) the reason being other walls (internal) are either breeze block or stud walls which i didnt consider getting a good fix to. Put mine in a wardrobe on an external wall for same reason and it passed ok. Edited March 19, 2009 by hambone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billett Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Breeze block is possible I injected chemical resin into the bolt holes first to hold them in tight. But as al4x said, always out of sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
