Install Your Wall Frame With The Correct Hardware

Even after selecting the right frame for your photograph and placing your precious pictures in it does not finish off your work as you also need to place your picture on the wall properly by using the correct hardware so that your picture or paintings when placed looks good on the wall. Be careful in choosing the correct hardware as one mistake can damage the entire picture of yours and all your hard-work will go in vain. Here are some experts' advice in relation to choosing the correct hardware for your frames:
  • If you would want to hang a picture frame with a size equal to or smaller than 11X14 then chances are that the frame may have a hardware attached to it but if the frame is devoid of any hardware use either a saw-tooth hanger or eye hooks for hanging the frames.
  • If your frame is smaller than the above-mentioned size then opt for saw-tooth hangers which are generally available in a couple of sizes and you can seek guidance from our experts at Frame art and customize it accordingly as our shop is considered to be one of the best custom framing New York shops.
  • One more important aspect that you need to consider prior to hanging your frame is the direction where you would want to place your frame and make sure that the saw-tooth hanger if you use it as your hardware is centered and straight or else your frame would not look straight on the wall. You can measure the width of the frame to the dot on the saw-tooth hanger so that your saw-tooth hanger is centered.
  • Another hardware that you can use for hanging your picture frames are eye hooks which you can screw into the wood of the frames. They are best recommended for large and heavy frames. You need to screw in two hooks and then you need to string wire between them. Be careful in stringing the right amount of wire so that the frame looks nice on the wall.
  • Make sure to place the eye hooks at the right spot and for doing it easily you can just mark the positions prior to screwing in the eye hooks. Screw the hooks on the left and right sides of the frame and make sure it is even. One more thing while you are about to string a wire be careful in not running the wire tight between the two hooks or else your frame will not hang properly.

It seems little bit tough on the surface but it's actually very easy to install a hardware perfectly in a frame. So opt for beautiful frames and preserve your precious pictures.
