I hung cabinets in the garage where I knew there would be heavy loads. I cut rectangular holes at areas where I would be mounting them. Then took 2x3 about 2 to three foot long, pushed them up and down until where I was going to hang cabinets then used 1 3/4 inch sheet metal screws to go through metal studs into the wood studs nestled inside the metal ones. Replaced the Sheetrock rectangle and hung them with no problem. This also allowed me to see any wires running inside studs .
