Achieving Picture-Perfect Results
While we recommend professional assistance for hanging pictures, we understand some homeowners prefer a DIY approach. For those determined to try it themselves, we offer helpful tips to avoid common pitfalls:
- Hang pictures at eye level (typically 57 inches from the floor).
- Use sturdy hardware capable of supporting the picture's weight.
- Preferably, hang pictures from a stud.
- Before installing hardware, have someone hold the picture in place for a distance assessment.
Considerations Before Hanging a Picture
Several factors should be considered before hanging a wall item, including the desired height, picture weight, location of studs, wall material, preferred hardware, and the difficulty of leveling the picture. Mr. Handyman Serving Ocala to West Apopka guides homeowners through each step, focusing on the details to ensure picture-perfect results.
Best Methods for Hanging Pictures
The most effective methods for hanging pictures depend on the situation. We prioritize securing screws into studs when available, utilizing specially-made picture mounting hardware. When a stud isn't an option, we employ hollow wall anchors like toggle bolts, molly bolts, or spiral anchors.
Achieving Perfect Picture Hanging
Professional picture hangers, like our team, utilize mathematics, specialized equipment, and years of training to achieve perfect picture hanging. We locate wall studs, measure picture height, and employ methods and formulas to calculate the ideal position. For pictures with wires, we use a complex formula to determine slack and hang height in advance, ensuring top-quality results.
Minimizing Wall Damage
While hanging heavy pictures involves inserting screws or nails into walls, we take great care to minimize wall damage. For lighter items, we may use special adhesive hardware that avoids creating holes. Additionally, our team can perform drywall repairs to address any existing wall damage.
