Advice Needed - Radiator Mounting

[Dave1664]

Hi, just after a bit of advice.

I recently had 6 new radiators fitted (48 hrs ago) by a reputable plumbing company and my 2 year old son literally just leant against one (whilst seated) and the whole thing came away from the wall.
Luckily I was able to catch it to stop it from crushing him!

My question is, do you think these attached photos of 4 screws are sufficient to hold a radiator of this weight?
The reason I’m asking is both the company owner and engineer that has just turned up to temporarily repair the radiator and now leaking pipes have accused me of pulling the radiator from the wall!

As far as I can see radiator isn’t attached to any stud work.

Thanks in advance of any advice given.

Dave

Only one type of fixing for me it's the brolly type fixing that expands and grips the back of the board they are suitable for heavy fixing of radiators , i have a box of corefix on board for dot and dab , most solid wall installation brown plugs and 50 mm. No - 10 screws are suitable . Kop

Got give a pack of these yesterday, very similar to toggles but you don’t lose the toggle if removed. Pricey tho.
