Fixing to this high plasterboard wall

On the subject of the post: You can get long brackets that th hook in the back of the cabinet fits over.

Cabinet hanging rail. Sold in length of 1,2 and 3 metres, you can cut it to length

It is very stong, accepts lots of screws and will bridge over a weak spot or a buried pipe or cable.

If there are studs, and you cannot find them by tapping or viewing for shadows, drill a hole in the plasterboard where it will not be seen once the cabs are up, and insert my Special Tool, pushing it sideways in the cavity. If the end hits a stud, mark the distance on the tool. Test to both left and right.

I can sell you this Special Tool for £50 plus p&p, or you can make one by straightening out a wire coat hanger.
Not sure wire coat hangers exist any more

Is it 'special'? Worth £50 I guess

What diameter is the hole you drill. I guess when u insert the wire cost hanger it will bend in there to make 90 degrees. I'll have a look for wire coat hanger
