Many people ask, “How do I fix a TV bracket to a caravan wall?” In this guide, we’ll show you how to securely mount your TV using GeeFix fixings.
First, understand that caravan walls are typically constructed using a single or double-skinned method. Single-skinned caravans feature a single layer of material, such as plywood or aluminum. This construction is lightweight, cost-effective, and easy to repair. However, it offers limited insulation.
Double-skinned caravans, on the other hand, consist of two material layers with insulating material between them, like styrofoam or fiberglass. This design provides better insulation and durability compared to single-skinned walls, albeit at a heavier weight and higher cost. If you own a double-skinned caravan, you can use GeeFix fixings, which are perfect for fitting between the wall layers.
Some caravans also incorporate composite materials, such as GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic), which balances strength, insulation, and weight. It’s important to note that your caravan’s construction affects its weight and insulation. Always consult the manufacturer or a professional for specific construction details.

About GeeFix
GeeFix was invented by Gary Williams who is a retired plumber with over 30 years’ experience in the trade. We are proud that not only was GeeFix designed and developed in the UK, but that it is also manufactured in Shropshire supporting local industry and British business.
It was developed with the aim of creating a fixing which would secure heavy items to plasterboard/drywall walls. The interiors of modern homes are constructed from studwork and plasterboard so that GeeFix is the ideal product for fixing those heavy objects to cavity walls. TVs, radiators, towel rails, shelving, cabinets, cupboards, mirrors, curtain rails ……… just some of the many items that can be securely fixed to plasterboard with our fixings.
These hollow wall fixings can also be used to refix an object to a plasterboard wall where a different type of fixing has failed. For example, where a radiator has come away from a wall, a GeeFix fixing can be installed in the same position as the failed fixing and so often reduce the amount of work necessary to repair plasterboard.
Can be adapted for use with smaller objects, such as bathroom accessories, where fixing holes are close together. In these instances, one fixing can be used to secure the item by using the length of the backplate in the cavity for additional fixing points.
