How to drill into tiles to afix a cabinet?

[Pedro462]

Hi, I need to put up a small metal cabinet. Its probably 800mm x 800mm by 120mm deep.

Based on where it needs to go it is unlikely I will find a stud. I know that these tiles are on a cement sheet product. The back of the cabinet has 4 small slots to enable the cabinet to be lifted above. The kit comes with a template so you are clearly limited to drilling as per template

 

  

 

the screws and then slide down into place

Hi @Pedro462 

100% those spikes will compress as you push the plug through regardless of depth. And yes they stop the plug from spinning. The MOST important point is using the right sized glass and tile bit. Too small and it wont fit properly. To big and it will spin when you tighten the screw if with the spikes. I'll be using the smaller red and white ones myself tomorrow to fit out a new bathroom with rails and hooks etc.
