With the right picture hanging systems, large pictures can be securely and elegantly hung. Here are some factors to consider when selecting the best picture hanging system.

Pick the Right Location

Hanging a large picture can be a challenging task, but with the right approach, it can be done effectively and securely.

The first step is to determine the best location for the picture. Consider the size and weight of the picture, as well as the wall's orientation, lighting, and other decorative elements in the room.

Choose a location that has enough space for the picture to be viewed from a distance. It should be at eye level - which is typically around 57 inches from the floor - and centered on the wall. You can also create a gallery wall by hanging several pictures of different sizes in a clustered arrangement.

Picture Weight 

Choose a picture hanging system that can support the weight of your large picture.
