So I took the supports down to woodwork and carried the big walls and got the doors cut out. I got to drill the supports, and one of them is a bit unsteady, but it should be alright, I asked the technician the most stable place to put them in to distribute the weight and we went for a quarter of the way in each side for the big boards. I also had some smaller supports but he didn't think they would do much in the way of supporting so I just left these off.
Update: Unfortunately these supports were not strong enough for the walls when push came to shove, because of how the grout had made the walls warp. They fell over and broke the tap, so I added sandbags onto the back of the supports for all other filming, but I've learnt next time that this is something I'm going to have to research when the set is this big. (ooo extended practice exciting).
