depth of wall?

kccate · March 2016

I am at the outset, sorry if this has been asked and answered. I am about to install a paper towel holder, inside, above the door of my 2007 DM. Can I just use the screws that came with it? How thick are our walls? they appear to be just over 1" wood screws.

I can't recall what others have done but personally I wouldn't screw it as there's just a thin 1/8th inch of solid wallboard. I'd use 3M Command Hooks or just the sticky pads. I've mounted some things where I doubled up the sticky pads to get the thinkness I needed.

Command products are your friend in the T@B. If you feel the towel holder might be a little too heavy (and you will be pulling on it as well) you might double up with shorter screws.

Thank you!!

Kate, those of us who answered have the LG T@B's, not a DM T@B. You might want to check with DM owners to see if their walls are different than LG's walls.

Good point, Verna, thx.

Over on the yahoo group, there are schematics of the DM structure. Maybe these will help.

And, thank you anytime, for items from the Yahoo group. For some reason about 3 years ago, Yahoo decided it hates my email address and it will not let my email address join/receive messages. I have tried other email addresses, but without success. So I LOVE this forum!
