Wall Art comes in all shapes, sizes and media, but
what is important when using the Attach-It is the structure of
the item itself or the frame it is mounted in.
FLAT FRAMED ART INCLUDING ORIGINAL
PAINTINGS, PRINTS, PHOTOS, MIXED MEDIA etc.
Most flat art is mounted behind glass and matt board with hardboard
behind it holding it in a frame with pins. The plane of the hardboard
is usually inset into the frame leaving the back of the frame
to come in contact with the wall when it is hung. Attach-its should
be mounted on the surface of the frame which is contact with the
wall so the prongs can fully embed into the drywall.
PAINTINGS ON CANVAS INCLUDING, OILS,
ACRYLICS, PRINTS AND PHOTOS etc.
Paintings on canvas stretchers sometimes have the stretchers
protruding out of the back of the frame. Mount the Attach-Its
on the surface in contact with the wall.
SIGNS, PAINTINGS ON BOARD, PLAQUES
etc.
Ensure the back is flat and the Attach-it is mounted on the part
of the item that is in contact with the wall so that the prongs
can insert fully into the drywall.
ANTIQUES
The same rules apply to antiques as for any other picture. The
frame or material that the Attach-it is mounted on must be sound
and the Attach-it is must be mounted on the part of the item that
is in contact with the wall so that the prongs can insert fully
into the drywall.
