Fixing battens to rendered block wall

dave 27 · 2023-07-17 11:54:12

Hi all, i'm looking at making a makeshift wardrobe in a room which requires fixing timbers to the wall (rendered block), just wondering what the easiest way of doing this is? would a nail gun work? I dont particularly fancy pre drilling a number of holes with rawl plugs etc if i can avoid! thanks

look up "masonry screws" or "thunderbolts" on screwfix, they are available in any hardware store and will be the best option for you.
