Hi,

I'm mounting a large 1700mm framed mirror onto my porcelain tiled bathroom wall. Estimated weight of the mirror is 15-20kg.

The mirror is like a large picture frame with strings to mount it.

What's the best way to mount the hooks?

Drill through the porcelain tiles trying to find a stud?

Or would it be possible to silicone 2 x (one on each end of the mirror) self adhesive style plastic or metal flat backed picture hooks?

The other alternative is to silicone say 2 x 30cm lengths (one on each end of the mirror) of 2 x 1 pine or 16mm MDF and then screwing picture hooks onto the timber??

As I may remove the mirror in future, I rather not drill the tiles.
