Product Information

They’re easy to remove without damaging the surface underneath, no holes, damaged paint or sticky residue. Not just for picture frames, these wall hangers are also great for creating a gallery wall, hanging college dorm decor, wooden letters, nursery décor, acoustic foam boards, and more. A couple of times, I’ve used two pairs of strips when I really should have used three, and the frame detached and fell (whoops! So one idea would be to cast a weight out of screed, concrete or something similar and screw it to the bottom shelf from below.

When he’s not testing the latest cookware, kitchen knives, and appliances, he’s spending time with his family, cooking, and doing house projects.Comparing apples to oranges might not be a fair matchup, but comparing a bag of apples to your next project—that’s a different story.

Since the strips attached to the wall and the strips attached to the frame are connected by Velcro, you can simply pull the frame off the wall and the Velcro will release. For items with a bit more weight, remember that five pounds feels just like a standard bag of potatoes. Do not use other household cleaners since those can leave behind a film or residue that can make the stickiness of the strips ineffective. With valuable photos/paintings/art, it’s always better to be safe and overestimate the number of strips you need.

The importance of not attaching the lower sets of strips further than 2/3 of the way down from the top of the frame can not be understated. If you’re not sure how much a frame weighs, stand on a scale, record your current weight, then pick up the frame and step back on the scale to see the difference.If you’re willing to give them another shot in the future, I’d recommend pressing the strips against the wall and letting them sit for 24 hours before attaching the picture. GRX trim screws anchored into a stud would do the trick and leave a very small hole that could be easily spackled.
