And then, take a deep breath, have a cup of tea, and worry about the next thing… In the meantime, if a rogue PAX system decides it’s your turn, then hey, be grateful it wasn’t a pretentious baby grand piano or a summer festival Porta-Potty.

I’d say “no!” to Command hooks. I love them and use them a lot but they are for lighter weight hanging. And I’ve had them fall off occasionally. Wow! I’m sorry to hear about that horrible experience! What type of wall? Standards drywall? Any special finish or unusual paint type? Please let us know so others can avoid these issues. Thanks – Andrew Reply Command™ adhesive is designed to stay in place for as long as you need it to, and will stay put for many years.” Maybe your landlord doesn’t want to forbid you to screw holes into the wall, but it just doesn’t work? You mentioned velcro so I guess it should be do-able but is the strength compromised each time I do that? ReplyIn all honesty, I’ve never followed this step and never had an issue. From my experience, as long as your wall is clean and you press the frame against the wall and hold firmly for 30 seconds, you should be all set. When the Velcro doesn’t hold, it’s usually a case of not using enough strips to hold the weight. With valuable photos/paintings/art, it’s always better to be safe and overestimate the number of strips you need. Reply In the previous section, I highlighted Command’s three most popular products (Small, Medium, and Large strips), but they sell many other picture hanging strips and hooks with various weight limits.

Other methods like glue actually leave more damage on the wall and is harder to clean up when you want to move out. We hope you enjoyed reading our review and that now you can confidently hang pictures without using nails.Pulling the frame off the wall the wrong way. If you pull the frame straight off the wall, you risk damaging it.
