Position the sawtooth hanger so that it’s centered left-to-right on the top rail, a little down from the upper edge of the frame. The serrated edge should face down.
-
If installing on extremely hard wood, drill small pilot holes for the sawtooth hanger’s screws.
-
Screw the sawtooth hanger using a screwdriver, taking care not to break the glass on the frame, if any.

Hang the picture on the wall, ensuring the nail in the wall is tight and secure before using it to hang the frame. TIP: Always use a headed nail, not a brad, and position the frame on the nail so that the nail is caught firmly on the sawtooth hanger.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q How do I install sawtooth hangers and what tools or hardware do I need?
Installation depends on the type of sawtooth hanger. Nailess sawtooth hangers have built-in prongs that you press or hammer directly into the back of a wood frame—no screws or nails needed. Screw-on sawtooths require a screwdriver and the included screws. Snap-in sawtooth hangers clip into the channel of a metal frame. For a detailed walkthrough, check our guide: Do's and Don'ts When Using Sawtooth Hangers.
Q Can I remove sawtooth hangers without damaging my walls?
Yes. Sawtooth hangers attach to the back of the frame, not the wall, so removing them causes no wall damage. The frame hangs on a wall screw or nail. To remove the frame, simply lift it off the wall hardware.
Q How much weight can sawtooth hangers safely hold?
Weight capacity varies by design. Our sawtooth hangers range from lightweight nailess models suitable for small frames to our Heavy Duty and Mega Sawtooth hangers built for heavier pieces. Check each product listing for the specific weight rating.
Q What wall types are sawtooth hangers compatible with?
Sawtooth hangers mount on the frame, not the wall, so they work with any wall type as long as you use an appropriate wall screw or hook. Pair them with drywall screws for drywall, masonry anchors for brick or concrete, or wood screws for wood panels.
Q What kinds of frames or decor work best with sawtooth hangers?
Sawtooth hangers work with both wood and metal frames. Nailess and screw-on designs are best for wooden frames, while snap-in sawtooth hangers are designed for the industry-standard Nielsen metal frame channel. They are ideal for picture frames, small signs, and lightweight wall art.
