About the product

Instructions
-
Mark the position of the hanger on the wall using a pencil, then hold the picture hook in the marked position.
-
Hammer the nails gently into the nail sockets until the hook is flush against the wall. The raised nail sockets on the hook will guide the nails into the wall at the proper 45-degree angle. Avoid over hammering as it can compromise the hook’s holding power and damage your wall.
-
If using two hooks, space them apart evenly and repeat steps 1-2. TIP: When hanging hook & wire hung picture frames, pictures will hang straighter and be more secure over time with two hangers.
-
Hang the frame.
-
To remove a brass-plated hook, pull the nails back at a 45-degree angle with a slight twisting motion using fingers or soft-faced pliers. Prying hooks away from the wall with a screwdriver or a similar tool will often damage the wall surface.
-
To reuse a brass-plated hanger, ensure the hook and nails have not been bent or deformed.
