so, fitting a gun safe in newer houses turns out to be a right pain.
All the internal walls are stud/plasterboard and all the external walls are thermalite blocks with plasterboard dob and dab on.
The ground floor externals would be brick but trying to find a place to fit a cabinet that also meets the wife's approval isn't easy!
The FEO said he's happy for me to fit it to the back of a stud wall horizontally so it spans across the studs and to then make sure you cant get behind it by filling in the gaps between the studs.
What's the best way to fill in between the studs, just fit some more wood between and screw into the studs?
