3M CLAW(TM) 15 lb. Drywall Picture Hanger With Spot Marker, Heavyweight Hanging Solution for Room Decor and Office Space Decor, Including Mirrors or Large Art – 6 Pack

I have a clock I love and found the perfect location for it. As we started putting a nail in the wall we knew we hit something. It ended up being the metal ventilation ducting. Thankfully we didn’t nail hard but gently to make sure we didn’t damage anything behind the wall.I was so disappointed, I literally did not a wall to hang my favorite clock on. I searched for a solution and found the claw. I didn’t believe this would work but the reviews convinced me to try. IT WORKED! I made sure we bought the appropriate weight capacity and amazed at how well these work.If you have a wall but not sure what’s behind it these will work! I love these genius products that make the impossible possible!

These things are amazing!! I had to hang a fairly heavy mirror over my fireplace and I hate using wall anchors. These were so easy to use, and feel very snug, and they don't leave giant holes in your walls the way an anchor would. Also came with easy to follow instructions. Definitely will be buying these again

I love artwork. I hate hanging it up. Proof in point, I've had a collection of artwork I've been wanting to display in my office at work for probably 6 months and, even having discovered the 3M CLAW when I was getting frames for some of it, it's taken me this long to finally get them and to put up that artwork. I was afraid that this product could not be as good as advertised. I'm very pleased to now be able to report it is every bit as advertised. And, the first as-advertised bit is that you really don't need any tools. Certainly no hammer. Just some firm pressure and the two claws pieces do the job for you. Between the instructions, the features built into the claw, and the design of the multi-use nature of the spot markers, I found it very easy to hang up 4 pieces myself using just 1 of the 5 spot markers ... leaving me the other 4 if I ever need to move things. Took me maybe 45 minutes total (including moving furniture out of the way and moving it back). The process is surprisingly simple ... but ingeniously designed. You arrange the spot marker on the back of the piece you need to hang based on how it will be hung. You arrange the artwork on the wall and apply just enough pressure for the spot marker to adhere to the wall. Remove the artwork and make a dot at the designated spot on the spot marker. Remove the spot marker and now align that dot with the designated plate on the CLAW ... and once level, just press it in. Once in, hang the artwork. The entire process is based on just holding the artwork where you want to it be when finished ... and the spot marker and CLAW naturally "do the match" to determine where the CLAW has to be for that to happen. None of the usual headaches of having to do precise measurements and still hope you're close enough for things to look right. While 1 piece was by itself ... 3 that I hung together aligned the way I was wanting them to so that was really nice. Now that the primary pieces are in place, I can take in the rest and know how they'll have to go in relation to the initial group. A follow-up task that I now look forward to instead of dreading. Having used double-side tape or other such "wall markers" in other crude implementations of these wall spot markers, I know the overall idea isn't new. But, for 3M to be able to start off with such a crude concept and to develop a formal system combining a simple but effective spot marker with their CLAW is just amazing. And, is easily the best way I've seen yet to get something hung up easily, quickly, and accurately. The fact they have them in different weight classes is another great feature. I opted for the 25-lb set instead of the 15-lbs set because 1) I knew getting a set of the same class would be cheapest (I could get 2 packs for 10 total for less than a multi-pack of 8 total) and that 2) a 25-lb CLAW can hang anything that a 15-LB CLAW could even easier. In my case, I had one large canvas, two tall framed prints, and then 1 large all-metal print. The metal print was easily the heaviest ... but while I was certain it was less than 15 lbs, I was more comfortable doubling the weight capacity instead of being "just below" the limit. The 45 lbs or 65 lbs options would probably be fore something really heavy like a mirror or small display shelf. A great system with a lot of possibilities! Glad someone finally figured out how to make such an idea a reality!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Needed something stronger than command hooks but easy to use. These hooks fit the bill.

I like these hangers a lot. They are well designed and very easy to use on drywall. I'm just disappointed because I think they are overpriced for what you are getting. They (7.5 lb) apply to the wall without the help of a hammer and hug the wall very closely. Yes I'd buy them again but like I said, they are too expensive for what they are.

absolutely love these for hanging anything. i'm a renter so i need renter friendly hanger and these are amazing.

Great for my precious art. I have full confidence that this will stand the test of time. Easy to install.

Probably one of the best purchases. Easy to install and hang photos. Leaves minimal marks
