[Pete999]

Like the title says, I think it may have been posted before many moons ago. 1st fixing bac, boxes I used to bed all my boxes in with bricklayers compo ( the stuff they lay bricks with) wait until it sets, if you have time, and then drill and fix with rawlplugs and screws, how or what method is the trend these days?, not talking about fast fix boxes either.

Wrigley's Doublemint is an option...

Also works great for sticking end-pieces on to mini-trunking.

Steal some mortar mix from other trades throw a bit in and set the box to your liking. Or if the chasing has been done to a good standard and the box will sit flat a couple of screws and wall plugs

Surface mounted pattresses and MT2 for me Pete! And only the sticky backed type mind ! Don't have to faff on charging the batteries for the drill as often either !
