How to hang a frame display

1. Using a stud finder, locate the stud (vertical support beam) that you will be using to hang the frame display. Mark the stud location with masking tape.

2. Using a hammer, drive a nail into the stud. The end of the nail should be pointing slightly upward.

3. Place the frame display onto the nail, using the anchor on the back of the frame display (this should be toward the top of the frame display). Make sure the frame display is level by using a bubble level.

Tips & Warnings

• Wall frame displays vary in size, shape and weight. These measurements will determine how many nails will be needed and what gauge of nail should be used.
