Damage-Free Canvas Hanging (Ask About Our In-Store Kent Upgrade!)

Finding the perfect piece of art for your home is wonderful. However, figuring out how to display it can be incredibly stressful. If you live in an apartment or flat with strict landlord rules, you might be terrified of drilling holes. Because of this, customers constantly ask us how to hang a heavy canvas without damaging the wall.

Therefore, we have put together this simple, renter-friendly guide. You can safely mount your beautiful UK artwork without ever losing your security deposit!

The Best Damage-Free Hanging Methods

1. Heavy-Duty Adhesive Strips

• First of all, adhesive picture strips are a renter’s best friend. Excellent brands like Command make heavy-duty strips that lock together with velcro. Most importantly, they can hold a surprising amount of weight and peel off cleanly when you move out of your apartment.

2. Adhesive Wall Nails

• If your canvas has a traditional wire on the back, adhesive nails are the perfect solution. They stick to the wall just like the strips do. Consequently, you get the strength of a traditional metal nail without actually piercing the plasterboard.

Crucial Rules for Heavy Wall Art

When you are hanging larger pieces yourself, you must be careful. Here are the golden rules to stop your art from crashing down in the middle of the night:

• Check the Weight Limit: Always check the packaging on your adhesive strips. If your picture weighs 5kg, you must use strips that are rated for at least that weight.
• Clean the Wall First: Dust and grease completely destroy adhesive glue. Therefore, you should always wipe the wall with rubbing alcohol before you stick anything down. As a result, the strip will bond perfectly to the paint.
