The support poles have flat plates at the top that ideally are screwed through the ceiling plaster into the ceiling joists. The base plate can be screwed to the floor.
As is usual things can only be as good as they are designed to be if used/fitted correctly.
SWMBO is always telling me that I over engineer whenever I do things. Where builders hammer nails in I screw.
As for self build, that is probably what we will have to do if nobody comes up with anything.
