OOK 55007 Brass Picture Hangers - Shield Design Art Hooks for Wall Decor, 30lb Capacity (1 Set) | Perfect for Hanging Paintings, Photos & Mirrors in Living Room or Office

OOK picture hoks are simply the best!Best hooks. Great quality. I highly recommend it.I have plaster on rock lath walls which are a couple inches thick. Normal wall anchors don’t work on these walls - they just tear up the plaster and aren’t long enough to operate as intended. I’ve used Ook picture hangers in the past for lighter art so decided to take a chance on these for three heavy carved wood panels. Each panel weighs at least 50 pounds and I used one shield for each. They were easy to mount and didn’t crack or chip the plaster. So far the panels haven’t budged. If you don’t see an update, they’re still hanging strong!Hung a heavy narrow tall rectangular mirror in plaster and it's still holding great. I debated pre drilling the holes in the plaster but didn't need to, just tapped in at a tempered paceHello all,If you want to protect your walls and pictures, use these hooks.I use this to hang several heavy wooden wall art pieces...Will NOT become detached. Heavy duty. I have also used it on my homemade 4 string cigar box guitars....I can't recommend the Ook any higher, one of my favorite products ever and simply the Rolls Royce of wall fasteners. Extremely easy to use and absolutely secure. I have a pretty valuable art collection and I trust that the Ook will keep them on the wall and safe. In over ten years, I've never had a Ook fail me with over 20 applications around my house and another 12-15 in my office. The only note I can make is that all my applications involve dry wall with nothing over 75 pounds. I've read that others have had issues with plaster applications, but I'm guessing that might have something to do with the condition of the plaster as well. For dry wall? buy with complete confidence.Well, my wall hasn't come down yet. And neither have these. I used these mega babys for a LARGE antique mirror I found in the basement of my new house. My home was built in 1900, and you can bet the plaster is brittle. Anything I've hung with a regular nail has torn through within two weeks. Anything I hang with any Ook product (I've used many) has not budged. Not even my shoe hanger, which I hung behind the front door and push and pull shoes from every day. TRUST THESE BABIES! They will not let you - or your hangings - down. (pun intended)Really works!
