Stud Finder
Know what’s behind the wall before you drill it
Description
A stud finder takes the guesswork out of fixing into walls, helping you locate what’s actually behind the plaster before you drill. It’s designed to detect timber studs, metal framing, and hidden services so you’re not relying on tapping, patchwork holes, or “it should be roughly here” judgement. Ideal for mounting anything where strength matters and hitting air instead of structure isn’t an option. Commonly used for: • Locating timber studs for shelving, TVs, and cabinets • Finding metal framing in modern wall systems • Avoiding electrical cables and hidden services • Setting out secure fixing points in plasterboard walls • Renovation and fit-out work where wall structure isn’t visible A practical tool for installation work where fixing into the wrong spot can mean damage, rework, or unsafe mounting.
