Hanging Pictures On A Cinder Block Wall

Instead they have adhesive backings which can stick firmly to the wall.

Hanging pictures on a cinder block wall.

Attach two hook and loop sections together one for the wall and one for your stuff. The adhesive hooks are an outstanding solution because they don t require we drill holes in the wall. You hammer the hanger into the wall and it puts 4 small pins into the wall that are holding a plastic hook. If the concrete block wall is painted and has a relatively smooth not porous finish hanging pictures may be as simple as installing removable adhesive wall hooks.

Anchors with heavy duty spring loaded wings hold objects against the hollow part of a cinder block and wedge style anchors hold objects against the cinder block s solid webbing. The anchor used to hang heavy objects on a cinder block wall must grip the sides of the anchor s pilot hole tightly. Also wall grip hardwall hangers for concrete cinderblock and masonry are great for hanging things. Hold for 30 seconds and release.

Remove the paper lining on the back of the hook line it up straight and press the hook firmly onto the wall. While most adhesive hooks are strong enough to keep your pictures on the wall you must buy a couple capable of holding about 8 pounds or 3 6kg of weight. More than one strip may be required for level hanging and to distribute the weight. Press the adhesive side of the hook to the wall for 30 seconds.

I used it in my college dorm 25 years ago and now use them in my classroom on the cinderblock walls.
