Hi

I have just attempted to hang an antique mirror in my bedroom. When we refurbished the house we didn’t touch the plaster in this room and the walls are really tricky to drill into. The wall crumbled and as a result has a left a hole that is too big to use. We can fill the hole with some kind of product that will enable me to use this hole to hang the mirror? I will attach some photos. Thanks in advance

Please try adhesive wall hangers it's really good.

Thanks for your reply George, I am afraid this mirror is far too heavy and valuable for adhesive hangers. ( it weighs approximately 7 kgs!)

The easiest way is to use mounting foam. You can also use a special repair mixture, but I don’t know whether you will find an open store where you can buy it.

is that a prefab wall if so, the drill will spiral all over the place while drilling, its possible but id make the hole bigger for mounting points depending on the size of the mirror
then fill with concrete and allow to set over a week. then redrill and attach your mounting points.
I wouldn't use the adhesive product or these quick attach things especially if the mirrors large
