I haven't tried it myself, but a neighbour with a similar problem filled the holes with No-More-Nails and then put the plugs in. making sure that the NMN did not fill up the screw-holes in the plugs.
He reckoned it worked fine.0 -
if the gate ever comes away again i would attach a nice piece of 3 X1 pine to the wall,sand and varnish it,the attch the stairgate to that,the pine will cove the original holes you made,fix to the wall with 3 fixings the length of the wood evenly spaced,use a 7mm masonary drill(calippers not needed just read the size on the packet or drill bit) and 3 brown rawl plugs and som 50mm number 10 screws
any more help needed please ask
well done ..that was all what was needed..keep it up. :T
and don't criticise others ..unless you can come up with better yourself...or just stay mum ...
as a general rule, i dont knock any individual until, they have vexed me up a couple of times.. by directly having a go at me .
alll the best.markj0
