Bullfix extra plasterboard fixings 

This will be my last plasterboard fixing video for a long time 😉 I have hundreds of hours of video to edit on installing a kitchen, plus how to fit Multipanel’s, but I’ll try and edit the videos when the weather is colder! All previous plasterboard fixing tests can be seen here- www.ultimatehandyman.co.uk/forum1/viewtopic.php?t=106943 I hope everyone has a great Sunday 😉

Why anyone would get annoyed by these type of videos is beyond me. I actually found your channel initially by searching for plasterboard fixings. Been watching every video ever since (at least when youtube is kind of enough to offer it up in my subscription feed). Thanks for all your great videos, thanks for putting up the spreadsheet on the forum and don't let the trolls and other internet scum get to you :) All the best from Belgium!

Loved all of your plasterboard fixing videos, it's what made me hang 4 TVs in my house with confidence.

As a full time handyman myself, I usually buy a pack or 2 of each of the fixings that you test successfully. Always handy to have options.

Fixing things to plasterboard is a problem that nearly all of us encounter regularly, so plasterboard fixing videos offer practical demonstrations of manufacturers’ claims.

Mr H -you are very very good at explaining DIY for laymen! Thanks for sharing your obviously extensive and intimate knowledge!!

All your videos are highly informative and very helpful. Please continue to make them and test any associated products. Thank you.

i like the plaster board fixing videos . they are always coming out with new types and its nice to see them in action . . id have no problem with you doing more of these videos

Outstanding! I really like how you did a real-world test, and didn't just pull straight down on a screw, but instead showed how a shelf with a lot of weight would hold up. Thanks, and very much appreciate your video!!

I really enjoy these plasterboard fixing videos. Another useful demonstration.

I saw that guys comment on the official Corefix videos and thought he had some balls. Glad to see someone tested them out! I've seen a lot of your other test videos before and always enjoy them.

They carry an impressive amount of weight, but 20mm is a bloody great hole. You’d have to be pretty sure that you weren’t going to move the tv bracket/ shelve before you started to pop 20 mm holes all over your lounge wall.

In all honesty, as a tradesman, I like these videos as it saves me wasting money 👌🏼🤙🏼

Thanks for this roadtest Mr H I have some Bullfix screws ready to be used and this was very opportune for me to see just how robust they are I can now go ahead and use them with confidence once I figure out how to put a TV bracket on a wall that has the power plug socket and Aerial fittings already installed and just where I want the bracket to go.....

Hi mate, this was a no nonsense test of those fixings, and they stood up quite well I think, ignore the naysayers if the dont like the way you do stuff that's their problem, they don't have to watch, I welcome and are grateful for whatever you take your time to show us. Stay safe, best wishe's to you and your's, Stuart UK.

Just keep on posting plasterboard videos, I find them very informative.

top dollar testing, that's exactly what i would be doing to test them. I'm weary of all these claim's as well and tend to just use the metal screw in type as i dont trust plastic in to plasterboard yet. so once again, thanks for the video's. been very informative.

Brilliant video. I’ve just come across these fittings and was a bit skeptical. For what I want they will do me proud. Cheers fella.

Great video.. Haven't seen you in a long time. Good to see you back. 👍🍀🇮🇪

One’s again fantastic video keep up the good work bravo 👏

Always good to know what is on the market. No quarms here.

#ultimatehandyman thank you for reviewing these fixings. The reason for the small screws in one of the packs is so that they can be used when the gap behind the plasterboard is very small, and of course there is no point in having long screws if most of the screw is not actually in any substrate. Most other fixings, with the exception of Gripfit, cannot cope with narrow gaps behind the plasterboard. I can understand why the guy who invented these wanted you to review them because you have lot of subscribers and in fairness, judging by your review and others, his fixings are very good, especially as they can fit in all widths of gaps, whereas many of the fixings cannot. Again, thanks for all your videos on plasterboard fixings, I have watched all of them.

Enjoyed watching that video !

Thanks for the video, I always trust yours 👌🏼

Good Morning Ultimate Handyman KNOWLEDGEABLE Ultimate Handyman Amazing 👏 video thank you very much for sharing what you know with us. Take care and have a great Sunday 👍 👌 Ultimate Handyman From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧

Persistence does pay off, well at least it did for the inventor. The bullfix did make for a good video it was a "cliffhanger" haha. Thank you for sharing this impressive product.

I started using gee fix plasterboard fixings after watching Charlie diyte and they are very 💪💪💪💪 take a double panel 1200 rad or column rad no problem

By the shape of the hole in the plasterboard after the collapse , it looks like the fixing had worked and stayed in shape and it was the plasterboard which failed this time

Thanks for this video excellent work! Would you say these wouod be sufficient to use to wall mount a 65" LG G3 into plasterboard. Sorry for what may be a dumb question but im a DIY novice

How closely could these be spaced do you think, without compromising the plasterboard?

So is it fair to say it supports 75lb per anchor in this drywall?

Hi mate do you have any videos on insulating exposed steel columns or posts to reduce thermal bridging, cheers

Impressive

Would you use these for hanging a 600mm kitchen cabinet that will be on a plasterboard studwall?

Was half expecting to see the kitchen sink and the mother in law brought out for the weight test.

Agree with your comment regarding the inventor. Always on other people's videos ragging on their fixings. Stick to the positives of your own rather than trying to drag everyone into the gutter I say!

Noooo I just found your page and read that you’re no longer doing plasterboard anchor videos :( I navigated to the page with your results: 1. Spring toggle 176KG or 387Lbs 2. Bullfix Extra 143KG or 314Lbs 3. Snap toggle (sometimes called zip fix fixing) 129KG or 284Lbs Curious to know which brand of Spring Toggle worked best? As I’ve read many reviews that some aren’t that great at supporting heavy loads

Great videos! Any chance you can do a video of resign wall fixings in a dot and dab scenario?

So what do you u think is the best plaster board fitting? I used hollow mounts for a while then switched to geefix geefix look strongest with longest length hopefully my tv 40 inch TV is fine

Maybe for the future you could use 5 gallon drums filled with water. That way you can vary the weight and won't split if falling a short distance.

👍👍

Put the load more to the front of the shelf to put more pressure on the fixings, this would be a more accurate test IMHO!!!

The snapp toggles are the ones I use. You look very pissed off with those emails 🤭

Any recommendation for insulated plasterboard?

👍👍👍

Thanks for the review.. I promise we will stop hassling you now ;)

👍

🤘😎🤘

👍👍💪💪💪

Would love to see how their claim was tested, i'm 72kg and wouldn't risk one for my weight.

So we can categorically say, they will hold a pair of curtains or a lightweight tv 😂

Safe to say that packaging which says 'weight of a man' and has union jacks on it won't attract any Guardian readers!

Shouldn't you be just as skeptical to samples sent to you from the 'inventor' as you are of videos not showing the drywall backside in their testing?

Where’s my comment gone 🤷‍♂️

Do people really get annoyed by plasterboard fixing videos? Why on earth would you watch the video if you didn't want to see a review of these fixings? People are funny.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 uFhm! You seem pissed off today
