Hey,

Hanging heavy pictures on masonry walls is not as easy as it seems. It requires technical skills to make sure the wall does not get damaged. For your convenience, I will share tips below. You will need basic tools such as a hammer, nails, chalk, masonry bit, wall anchors, picture hooks or screws, and protective eyewear for the process.

  • You will need to position your picture frame on the masonry wall and mark the hanging spot with a pencil or chalk. You can use a friend to help with this process. 

  • With a hammer make controlled strokes and nail a screw in the wall.

  • Once the hammer has made a deep enough stroke, use a drilling machine to drill an anchor hole. 

  • Be careful as the masonry wall might have empty space between the exterior and interior wall.

  • For heavier pictures, use a wall anchor of adequate size and width.

  • With a screwdriver screw in the wall anchor tightly. 

  • Tug on the anchor to make sure it doesn't move. 

  • Hang the picture on the anchor and adjust accordingly. 

For a lighter photo frame, directly hammer a nail on the wall and hang the picture frame. If you don't wish to go through the hassle of hanging heavy pictures on masonry walls on your own. Enlist a professional to help you out.
