If you need extra storage space in your home, garage or workshop, look no further than the walls. Hanging and mounting hooks can convert that empty space into a functional storage area or make it possible to fill in the blank space with treasured photos and stylish artwork. Most mounting and hanging hooks can be installed quickly without calling in the pros, and Ace can help you prepare you for your DIY project with a wide range of hangers from brands like 3M and Velcro Brand.
Different Types of Picture Hangers
To display framed artwork and photos, picture hangers are the hanging hardware to choose from. Start by examining the back of the frame to see if any hanging hardware is already in place. If not, you’ll need to install a wire, saw tooth hanger, D-ring or other hanger first.
Once your frame is ready, you can consider what hardware to place on your wall. Options include plastic and metal peel-and-stick hooks and hangers and metal and plastic hangers that you screw or nail in place. Consider the weight of whatever you’re hanging to ensure that you select a picture hanger with an adequate weight capacity.
Decorative Hanging Hooks for Easy Storage
Storage hooks make it easy to expand your storage possibilities in any space. They come in a variety of designs and finishes, so you can choose ones that complement your decor. Single and double hooks can be used alone and in pairs to hang everything from kitchen utensils to keys to coats and accessories.
There are also multi-hook hangers featuring three or more hooks mounted on a backplate crafted from wood, metal, plastic or other materials. As with other types of hangers, weight capacity is an important consideration when comparing decorative hanging hooks to ensure that whatever you install adequately supports the items you need to store.
