Tips for Hanging Picture Frames

When hanging your picture frames on the wall, it is best have someone help you with this step. You can have your helper hold the frame at different heights and positions on the wall so you can find the right spot. If you’re not sure of how high to hang your picture frame, you generally want to hang it around eye level or about 3/4 of the way up the wall.

If you’re hanging multiple picture frames, it’s best to decide upon the spacing of each frame before you start hanging them on the wall.

Hanging multiple frames can be tricky so to make your wall look coordinated and well put together, arrange them on the floor until you’re satisfied with the look. For best results, follow these steps:

1. Measure the wall area where the picture frames will hang.

2. Take a string and outline the measured wall space on the floor.

3. Carefully place your frames on the floor (on top of a blanket or towel if there’s no carpet) and arrange them until you’re satisfied.

4. Once you have the right placement on the wall then transfer this placement on the wall. If possible, have someone help you as it will be easier with two people. If you have an empty wall with nothing hanging there, begin to hang your picture frames by starting in the center of your arrangement and working outwards. If you have other items on the wall and have a limited space, then you should start on one side and carefully work to the other end using the measurements from your floor arrangement.

5. Before placing the nail or screw, check the back of the frame and see where the hanger is placed so you don’t make your frame higher or lower than you expect. And, if you have a small level, use it so you’re picture frames will always be straight.

Now that you know what hardware is available and have basic steps to follow to hang your photo frames, hopefully it will help you from putting a bunch of unnecessary holes in your wall and make the process a whole lot easier.
