How do I install my picture frame?

Mounting your frame correctly is very important. Improperly hanging your art can result in a crooked display or worse, the frame can fall and cause injury. For small, lightweight frames you can use a standard nail or a screw with a drywall anchor. You want to position the nail or screw in the top center of your piece. For wide/panoramic displays you will want to mount both ends to the wall rather than just using the center bracket.

For frames over 15 pounds you may want to drill into a wall stud to be sure it will hold. For larger and heavier frames, we recommend purchasing a wall mount. We call it a “Z-Bar” but there are many names for it. Blue Dot Framing can supply you with the correct materials for hanging your frames.
