Sec_5 Hardware Brackets for Art Picture Frame, Mirror Secure Safe Hanging Installation with Free Wrench

I purchased these security hangers to hang some frames above our newborn crib. I have to say that we feel 100% safe as there is no way the frames will accidentally fall off the wall. (We hung them higher than the child will ever be able to reach so our goal was to ensure they could never accidentally fall, as opposed to being pulled down. However, I believe that they are secure enough to withstand even toddler tugging, but would never recommend that). The only thing i will say is that you need to be above average on the handyman chart. They isn't to much leeway when installing and you better have your numbers accurately calculated to ensure proper distancing for the anchor holes. The holes must be level as well. Overall, i would buy these security hangers again if the need arose in the future.

My husband wanted to purchase this set so we could hang pictures above the baby's crib without fear that they could fall down in an earthquake (we live in Pennsylvania...haha). It was very time consuming to hang two frames (1.5hours or so), and it was very difficult to get them lined up and level. This is with my husband being a construction-savvy guy with any tool you could ask for. Also, these aren't designed to lay flush against the wall and thus are about 2mm away from the wall. That being said, no earthquake or small child could ever take these things down- they are secure!! So I would recommend them in the event you need super secure hanging, but leave plenty of time and frustration to accomplish your goal.P.S. The wrench that comes with it to "lock" the hardware on left black marks on the wall but they came off with a Magic Eraser.

These have worked great. They are sturdy enough to put my wife at ease hanging pictures above a crib. A child can't lift or pull the frame from the wall.With careful measuring they were easy to install. Measure twice, cut once and you shouldn't have any issues. You'll need a level, 3/16 drill bit for the anchors, a much smaller bit for pre-drilling screws in the frame to prevent splitting, and a Phillips driver.The frame won't hang level if you don't place each top bracket the same distance from the edge and drill the anchors level in the wall.

The instructions suggested that pressing the hardware into the wall surface would leave indentations to mark where to insert the wall anchors. This is true when holding a loose bracket in your hand and pressing it into the wall, however when the bracket is screwed into the picture frame, the fully inserted screws (that came with it) stick out farther than the bracket, and do not leave any marks when pressed into the wall. So instead I had to do a lot of measuring. On a 6' wide by 2' tall frame, I used 3 top brackets and 2 bottom/locking brackets. They seem to hold very well, which is ideal for this frame being in a high traffic location where it might be bumped.

This will not deter a determined thief, bent on destroying the wall and/or frame - but will stop a casual perp from easily swiping your pictures/posters/etc. I am using these security hangers in the lobby of my Condominuim building - so your next pizza delivery guy will not swipe that nice wall art!!! And no need to make any visible holes in the frames either!!!

Bought this to hang a large picture frame over my couch. I was afraid the kids would knock down so this keeps it safe on the wall and the kids safe.

Just as described.

This works like a champ. This is the same system I see in Hospitals. It takes alot of time to measure and get just right but it is sturdy. I do wish the main screw in the bottom was longer just in case you are lucky enough to use a stud...
