Wall brackets - how to fit?

Options
Hi,

I've just bought some bathroom units from Wickes and the brackets to fix the tall tower and wall units to the wall aren't ones that I am familiar with - can anyone help please?

Heres a link to the sort of thing they look like

The cupboards didn't come with very clear instructions and I'm not sure how or where to measure the cupboards sp that when I've fixed the brackets to the wall, they will hang in the right place - I've got visions of either levitating cupboards or just missing the brackets altogether! :o

Sorry to be dim - I'm used to using rawlplugs and redi-drivas!

Thanks for any help :)

    Found this but it's not very clear.

    Scroll right down to the bottom.

    Ask to see CIPHE (Chartered Institute of Plumbing & Heating Engineering)
  • Thanks for that - not too clear is it?!

    I have never seen these type of hangers before and certainly didn't see any today in Screwfix, B&Q or even in Wickes where the units were from! The bathroom sales guy hadn't a clue about them! :rolleyes:

    I think there is going to be plenty of measuring and testing going on, and no doubt plenty of re-drilling holes too!

    Oh why can't Ikea do a good selection of bathroom furniture?! Their kitchens are soooo easy to install!
