Attaching a hook to plasterboard can be done using different types of hooks and fixing methods, according to the reference provided. Some wall hooks attach directly, while others use a separate component.
Methods of Attaching Hooks
Based on the provided information, here are ways hooks attach to a wall, including plasterboard:
Hanging Straight from the Screw
Some hooks are designed so you can simply hang them straight from the screw. This implies that the hook itself has a feature (like a keyhole slot or a simple hole) that allows it to fit directly onto the head of a screw already installed in the wall.
Using an Additional Hook
Other wall hooks come with an additional hook. This suggests a multi-part system where perhaps a mounting plate or a separate fixture is first attached to the wall, and the main hook then attaches to or hangs from this 'additional hook' component.
Going Directly Into the Wall
As highlighted in the reference: "This one here is the exact same thing all it is it goes directly into the wall." This refers to the hook being fixed directly into the plasterboard, typically using a screw or nail, often with an appropriate plasterboard fixing to ensure stability.
These methods offer flexibility depending on the design of the hook and the intended use. When attaching anything to plasterboard, it's important to consider the weight the hook will need to support and use suitable fixings designed for plasterboard to prevent damage and ensure the hook stays securely in place.
