ABSTRACT:
An article is attached to a wall by mounting the article on at least one and preferably two or more holders which are in turn screwed to the wall. Each holder has a self-adhesive layer at its end face adjacent the wall and at least one screw hole for fixing it to the wall. The arrangement is such that the holders can be provisionally mounted on the article and then pressed against the wall in the desired position. The self-adhesive layers then temporarily secure the holders to the wall so that the article can be removed leaving the holders in the desired position on the wall. The screw holes in the holders are then used as a drilling jig for drilling the attachment holes in the wall. Screws are then inserted into the attachment holes, if necessary using wall plugs, and the article is then remounted on the holders. Provision is made for finally securing the article to the holders, for example by the use of spring loaded pins. Several variants of the invention are described including particularly advantageous arrangements using two-part pedestals for the holders with the pedestals fitting into complementary sockets in end parts of the article. The invention is preferably used for attaching articles such as hand grips, towel rails etc.
