Would you put curtains over french doors?
I have the french doors in my living room. The living room is separated by a large fireplace. It goes out into a sunroom.
You can use small plastic anchors that your screws will lock into and expand to hold tight against wall.. I use then for almost everything
toggle bolts will hold anything-- but depending on the weight molies will work as Bobbie said-- use med size.
There are special anchors for drywall.. do not try to put in regular anchors made for studs..
I am using them for brackets in my kitchen . I live in a double wide and I would not say its built like a house..I think the studs are 1 x 1's...I am installing open shelving and have to make sure the shelves can hold up some weight with nothing but drywall to screw into., Hillman has hollow core anchors that will do it.
