Product Information

Full details

This guide is for anyone looking to securely hang pictures and mirrors, especially heavier items. The Taskar Heavy Duty Picture & Mirror Hanger provides a reliable and easy-to-use solution, thanks to its interlocking Z-bar design and included spirit level. A key benefit is the increased load capacity, allowing you to hang items up to 20kg. However, proper wall fixings are essential for maximum weight support.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight the hanger can support?

The hanger can support up to 20kg when used with appropriate solid fixings.

What tools do I need to install the hanger?

You'll need a drill, screwdriver, measuring tape, and possibly a pencil to mark the wall.

Are wall plugs included?

Yes, frame and wall screws/plugs are supplied.

Can I use this hanger on plasterboard walls?

Yes, but you must use the appropriate wall plugs designed for plasterboard. Ensure the combined weight of the picture/mirror and frame doesn't exceed 20kg.

How do I clean the hanger?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the aluminium bars. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

What if my wall is not perfectly flat?

The spirit level will help ensure the hanger is level. Small imperfections in the wall won't significantly affect performance, provided that the wall fixings are secure.

Troubleshooting

Picture/mirror is not level.

Double-check the spirit level during installation. Ensure the wall-mounted Z-bar is level before screwing it in.

Hanger feels loose.

Tighten the screws securing the wall-mounted Z-bar. If the wall plugs are inadequate, consider using more robust fixings.

Hanger is not supporting the weight.

Ensure the weight of the item does not exceed 20kg. Check that the correct wall fixings (screws/plugs) have been used for your wall type.

  3. Drilling & Installation: Drill holes and insert wall plugs appropriate for your wall type.
  4. Mounting: Screw the wall-mounted Z-bar into place. Attach the other Z-bar to the back of your frame.

Compatibility
