Screws.  We've attached lot of things to the walls using screws.  Use # 8 or #10 screws just long enough to penetrate the paneling completely

For stuff that's not too heavy and for those plastic hooks 3M makes a double sided mounting tape that seems to work pretty well.

They also make one that  has a higher capacity, but I haven't tried it.

I think I'm the only pod owner that has added many cabinets towel bars ets, but nobody beliefs that I have not used a single wall anchor 7th season and everything is still on the wall.

Madmojo,

If mounting into a hollow area of wall, most of us use wall anchors, select an appropriate length as to not interfere with outside skin. Take some pre-planning as a hole drilled is hard to cover-up if not needed in future. There are no studs in a Pod, if you can use an aluminum tube do so, you can find them with a stud finder. There are instances where you have to use anchors for any load bearing capability, be prudent and plan ahead.]]> Sun, 04 Jun 2017 18:11:20 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10101&PID=94485#94485 Attaching to walls : I think the best way is not to... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10101&PID=94484#94484 Author: henryv

I think the best way is not to attach anything. The second best way is use velcro and avoid making holes! ]]> Sun, 04 Jun 2017 18:04:36 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10101&PID=94484#94484 Attaching to walls : I have a question for all of you... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10101&PID=94447#94447 Author: Madmojo

I have a question for all of you that have done modifications.  What is the best way to attach things to the walls.  Are you using wall anchors?]]> Sun, 04 Jun 2017 08:29:30 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=10101&PID=94447#94447
