I have a ceramic soap dish for attachment to tile in a commercial shower. It has no apparent means of attacment (screw holes, etc.). It looks like it came this way so I must be missing something. Are these things attached with some kind of glue/mastic? Seems hard to believe something this heavy is going to stay up on a wall for very long with only a glue of some type, especially considering the water environment and the fact it will be attached to verticle tiles which are not meant to have lateral/downward pressure torking on them anyway.

Jim, those dishes go on the backer board with thin set at the same time the tile goes on around it. Joe H
