For hanging pictures and mirrors onto hard walls.
The smooth face of a wall often hides bricks, blocks or concrete. These usually do not take kindly to the long pins used in traditional picture hooks.
These picture hooks for hard walls are moulded in high-grade polymer. They have hardened short steel pins pre-loaded. Use a small hammer to drive them into the wall surface. They are designed for use where the plaster is very thin, so that most of the pin length goes into the wall material. Wall surfaces vary, so always check before hanging a picture.
Use cord or braided wire on the picture. Do not use these hooks for heavy or valuable pictures or where items underneath might get damaged.
There are 4 sizes of hard wall hooks in our range, each with very sharp hardened steel pins:
- Extra Small: 12mm, with one 1.4mm x 18mm pin
- Small: 24mm tall x 14mm wide, with three 1mm x 12mm pins
- Medium: 29mm tall x 15mm wide, with three 1.1mm x 12mm pins and a hole for a picture pin (3 pin shown in pics upgraded to 4 pin)
- Large: 41mm tall x 20mm wide, with four 1.2mm x 14mm pins and a hole for a picture pin
Large & Medium have a hole that is designed to take a normal 25mm approx. hardened picture pin. This can help secure the hook on some softer wall surfaces.
Please be careful when handling, the points are needle sharp.
