what kind of nails should go in the wall to hang a picture using sawtooth hanger?
I am trying to hang a picture with dimensions 39*15 on the wall and it has 2 sawtooth hangers at top of each ends. What kind of nails (and their dimensions) should i put in wall to hold the sawtooth hanger? as in, flat head, brad (i am not even sure what they mean tho') and can i put the nail in directly in the wall?
this is my first time hanging a picture, any help/ suggestions much appreciated
The type of nail would depend on the weight of the frame etc. If it is heavier than a few pounds than you want to nail directly into a stud if the spacing allows. A 4d(penny) box nail will work fine. Other options are screws with anchors if your wall covering is drywall, or there are several types of adhesive hangers. Scotch Brand makes some nice ones.
