How to hang the painting on your wall?
Hanging your painting can be a straightforward process but hanging oversized paintings can be a bit more challenging, but with the right approach, you can do it effectively. Here’s how:
1. Choose the Location
Find a wall that can accommodate the size of the painting and enhances its impact.
2. Determine Height
Aim to hang the painting at eye level, usually about 57 to 60 inches from the floor to the center of the artwork.
3. Gather Supplies
Heavy-duty picture hooks or wall anchors (depending on the weight)
Level
Tape measure
Pencil
Stud finder (for heavy pieces)
Hammer or drill
4. Find Wall Studs
Use a stud finder to locate studs in the wall for secure anchoring, especially for heavier pieces.
5. Measure and Mark
Measure the distance from the top of the painting to the hanging hardware or wire.
Mark the desired height on the wall.
6. Install the Hangers
Install heavy-duty picture hooks or wall anchors at the marked points.
If using multiple hooks for balance, space them evenly according to the width of the painting.
7. Hang the Painting
With help, carefully lift the painting and place it on the hooks or anchors. Make sure it's secure.
8. Level and Adjust
Use a level to ensure the painting is straight. Adjust as necessary.
9. Step Back and Evaluate
Take a step back to see how the painting looks in the space and make any final adjustments.
If you’re still having trouble, we recommend hiring a local installer to safely hang the artwork on your wall.
