How To Hang Coat Hook On Wall

I happen to think it s also a bit of inspiration for a diy project.

How to hang coat hook on wall.

Step 1 place the coat hook over the desired location and insert the pencil into the screw hole to mark the wall. Choose anchors rated for heavy loads to ensure the rack stays put even under a load. Hold the hook piece over the backplate so the tab lines up with the hole in front of the hook. Measure the desired height on the wall where the coat rack will hang and make the appropriate marks on the wall with a pencil.

Slide the hook onto the wall and wait 1 hour before hanging anything. Slide the hook down onto the backplate until the tab clicks into place to secure your hook. Remove the paper lining on the back of the hook line it up straight and press the hook firmly onto the wall. You can also find some that run horizontally.

Step 2 use the drill and the phillips tip to screw the drywall anchor into the wall where the pencil mark is. Using the right anchors and hanging the coat rack in the correct place ensures a safe damage free installation. Most structures have vertical studs spaced 16 inches apart. When you screw your dowel hooks into the wall do it through a little loop of leather it s the perfect place to hang a scarf or sunglasses.

Secure the structure to wall studs if available for maximum security no matter how many heavy coats hang from the rack. Press the adhesive side of the hook to the wall for 30 seconds. Thump the wall lightly. If a stud is not available install at least two sturdy wall anchors or more if the rack is more than 2 feet long.

Step 3 mark spacing of mounting holes hold the tape measure at the desired height and make two small vertical marks on the wall for the mounting holes based on the measurement from step 1. Studs are pieces of wood beneath the drywall that act as the wall s frame. Hold for 30 seconds and release. 1 locate a stud in the wall at the desired hanging location.
