How to hang a picture frame on your wall

We received an email from a customer asking for tips to hang up one of our picture frames. Even though we don’t sell screws, nails and other DIY-materials, we think it can be interesting to show you how the job is done :)

If you want to hang up frames, it’s important to know the surface you want to hang it against:

-Wood allows you to use any screw with the help of a(n) (electric) screwdriver.

-If your surface is bricks steel nails or a plug with a screw do the trick.

-A concrete surface requires a plug and a screw. You have to drill a hole for the plug and then turn a screw in the plug. A light screw is sufficient for every frame.

Now, how to put your frames straight on the wall?

You can do that by using a handy tool, that is a combination of a level and a ruler (a device you can find in most DIY-stores)

This is how you do it:

1. Mesure the distance between the hooks of the picture frame

2. Put the ruler/level against the wall and make sure it’s perpendicular

3. Mark the distance with a pencil

4. Drill a hole and put (a plug and) screw in the wall

Et voilà, you’re done. Enjoy your new picture frame(s) !
