Hanging frames like our range of calligraphy frames on a wall can seem straightforward, but knowing how to hang frames on wall properly ensures they look great and stay secure. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Tools You’ll Need

• Hammer or drill
• Nails, screws, or wall hooks
• Level
• Measuring tape
• Pencil
• Stud finder (optional)
• Anchors (for heavier frames)

How to Hang Frames on Wall in a Simple Way 

1: Choose the Right Spot

• Consider placement: Decide where the frame will look best. Aim for eye level, which is typically 57–60 inches from the floor to the center of the frame.
• Plan the layout: For multiple frames, arrange them on the floor first to determine the best composition.

2: Measure and Mark

• Mark the spot: Use a measuring tape to find the desired height and width. Mark the position lightly with a pencil.
• Account for hardware: Measure the distance between the top of the frame and its hanging point (e.g., a hook or wire).

3: Go for the Wall

• Locate studs (optional): Use a stud finder if hanging heavy frames. This ensures extra support.
• Choose wall anchors: For drywall, use anchors for added stability, especially for heavier frames.

4: Install the Hanging Hardware

• Hammer nails or screws: Insert the nail, hook, or screw into the marked spot. For anchors, drill a pilot hole first, insert the anchor, and then screw in the hardware.
• Use adhesive strips (optional): If you prefer no holes, use heavy-duty adhesive strips suitable for the frame’s weight.

5: Hang the Frame

• Place the frame: Carefully hang the frame on the hardware, ensuring it’s secure.
• Check alignment: Use a level to make sure the frame is straight. Adjust as needed.

6: Final Touches

• Secure corners: Use museum putty or double-sided tape to keep the frame steady, especially if it tilts or shifts.
• Step back and admire: Check the placement from a distance to ensure it looks balanced and aligned.

By following these steps, you’ll create a polished look while keeping your frames securely in place.
