I used it in my parents' mobile home, which had wood-look paneling, and it worked perfectly!
Yes. We use these to hang almost anything that doesn't have a stud in it. They're the most effective.
Sure, if you can get a hole in the plater without destroying it.
It's claimed that they can hold up to 25 pounds. Is it true that the diploma is 26 pounds in weight?

I'm surprised I'd never heard of these; they should be well-known. When you hammer in a nail, it doesn't go into a stud and instead goes through the drywall, causing the drywall to disintegrate around the nail, causing your picture to fall or whatever. Molybolts and other similar devices are intended to keep your picture in place, but they leave a huge hole in the wall. Of course, command strips are now available, but I've had to deal with them as well. To use these monkey hooks, drill a hole no larger than a finishing nail and insert the monkey hook. It will support lightweight objects beautifully once you've got it in position (which can be a little tricky at first, but I got the hang of it). (It will also be simple to repair and conceal the hole once I move out. ) I'm not sure what the maximum weight limit is for monkey hooks. It's an 11x14 photo with a matte, glass, and regular wood frame that I've had up for weeks. (This was the same picture that the command strips were unable to hold! ) They're also cheap, and you get a lot of them in one pack. Again, I can't believe these aren't in use by millions of people.
A 19x27in puzzle is displayed in the frame. The hook has a thickness of about 2mm. It's very simple to operate; simply twist the hook back and forth as directed. When I pushed it all the way through, it felt pretty snug and secure. Overall, it appears to be a fantastic product, which I intend to use for other frames or wall hangings. Because it's small, it shouldn't be difficult to repair any future holes.
I dismissed them as a waste of time. I was sorely mistaken! Simple to work with. Stepfather, who was a little older, Checking the mail is a brat's responsibility. SLAM, slam, slam, slam, slam Later, he requested that the younger brat check his mail. SLAM. The image stayed put. I've got to get some more of these little critters!.
I did use pliers to make the hook part slightly narrower, but it wasn't necessary. The hole in the wall is very small. I haven't attempted to remove any of the hooks that I have installed, but I don't think it would be too difficult. br>This is a fantastic product; even my husband, who dislikes anything new or different, was impressed.
The use of these picture hangers is frequently advantageous; However, they occasionally flip after being inserted into the wall, making it difficult to turn them upward for use as a hanger. Also, I've discovered that if you have a brick or block structure, they won't fit into the exterior walls. Furthermore, when taking pictures (or whatever) down from the wall, I have not found them to be very easy to extract pictures from.
This is a fantastic solution. I recommend using a stud finder first to ensure that there are no studs in the way of your intended poke through location. I find them easy to poke through the drywall once you've determined there are no studs in the way, and they've held up well to the photos and mirrors I've hung with them.
We were unable to push these monkey hooks through the drywall and instead drilled small pilot holes as suggested by another reviewer. As others have mentioned, the art tends to lean forward a little, which can be irritating at first but grows on you. The heaviest item on the wall is a 23-pound vintage mirror, which has been up for days. We used foam to support the bottom of the mirror so it didn't hang forward from the hook. It's nice that instead of drilling for an anchor, you only have to make a small hole. I wish they could fix the issue with the anchors hanging forward, but otherwise, it's a good product.
I did have some difficulty getting one of them into the wall, and I was wondering if I had hit something in the wall (conduit or insulation) that made it more difficult. Now I'm considering moving the painting I hung, and I'll repeat the following steps:.
