    I need to hang 4 wall cabinets on the dividing wall of Semi D. so it'll be brick, stud, plaster.

    is the stud strong enough (or is it just glued to wall to old the plaster board)
    should i go to the brick. if so, should i expect it to be breeze block or a solid block, what is the best type screw to use.

    finally do you know if IKEA stock the suspension rail for the faktum range?

    Ted, using a thin screwdriver, punch a small hole through the PB and establish depth to wall. You will then know if it's a stud or just blobbed board. Let us know what you find.
