What Anchors to Use for Interior Walls?
I'd like to add some shelves to the interior space of my Class C. The wallboard used to divide the interior space is paper thin so I'm wondering how best to affix the shelves to the wall. Should I use...

Try to find the wall studs. However. some have only metal studs, and they are also hard to anchor to. Even if they are wood, the spacing is probably wrong for what you need.
We added a fold-down shelf to a wall that backed to the bathroom sink and the cabinet under it. I drilled all the way through, and put a plywood backer board on the wall inside the cabinet. Then bolts holding the shelf all the way through, with nuts and washers inside the cabinet our of sight.
Consider shelves with legs to the floor, anchored to whatever wall studs you can find. Maybe a wall anchor into the wall paneling to stabalize, but not to support weight. Good Luck!!
