How to attach repair drywall to drywall without wooden studs

[kahnilainen]

Hi. Quick question, what is the best/easiest way to attach a plasterboard (6mm) to existing plasterboard? I thought there were wood studs behind but it is apparently metal. So how do I attach my new plasterboard to my old plasterboard? It's a board of 249x62. It's going to be in the kitchen.

Glue?
Screw, which screw?

Glue, PL 600 or similar.

On the wall I have, there is no or little possibility to apply pressure to the glue, but as I understand it, this is probably not necessary. There will be kitchen cabinets flush against most of the cabinets, about 55 cm will be open but there we will either tile or use a glass panel.

Use screws of appropriate length for sheet metal studs; you can also use glue if you want both belt and suspenders.

Drywall screws for metal studs 40 mm long and PL600 in some neat lines behind where you will tile for even better adhesion.
