Done a couple of doorways with various sticking methods.
But now have a big patio door to do which is about 2.5m. Would you still use drywall adhesive and maybe some screws, or break it down into smaller sections?

I have some acros i could use to prop it up, but will probably be working alone so thinking of the best way? Or a gripfill type adhesive instead?

Hi Lagi,

Have found that dri-wall adhesive works well on perforated steel lintels alternatively you could use gripfill or similar

Thanks, do you use any screws in it to hold it or prop it up?

prop it in place, no need to use screws.

Done this today, smeared the plasterboard like pate and propped it up and it stuck pretty quick. Might be overkill for some but gets a lot of sun there so felt better for myself than dabbing it.

dab isnt supposed to fix to metal. although it does hold if anything happens its on your head. gripfill it and use board props till its set and it won't go anywhere
