How it holds

1/2-inch drywall
Most house walls
5/8-inch drywall
Thicker board, higher gold-pack rating

Drawn to scale: 64 px to the inch. The shaft lies behind the board and the cradle stays outside.

Install it in four steps

  1. 1

    Mark the spot

    Pick where the picture should hang and mark an insertion point 1/4 inch above that spot.

  2. 2

    Set the tip

    Hold the hook with the tip against the mark and the shaft square to the wall.

  3. 3

    Push and twist

    Twist back and forth while you push until the self-boring tip goes through the drywall. If it stops hard, you have found a stud: move over, or use a nail-in hanger there.

  4. 4

    Slide it home

    Turn the hook so the shaft follows the hole and slide it through until only the cradle, the small hook, is outside the wall. You may feel it lock into place.

Steps with photos

Is it the right hook for the job?

A good pick if

  • You are hanging a heavier mirror or a large framed canvas
  • You want the same no-tool install with more steel behind the wall
  • You need a handful of strong hooks rather than a big set

Choose something else if

  • The piece weighs more than 40 lb: find a stud or use a rated anchor
  • You only hang light frames: the Original costs less per hook
  • Your wall is masonry or tile
