5 Steps On How To Hang Picture Frames Perfectly Every Time

Hanging picture frames may seem simple, but getting them perfectly aligned and evenly spaced can be frustrating. Uneven frames, crooked alignments, and misjudged spacing can ruin the look of your wall. Luckily, with the right tools and a littleknow-how, you can achieve a professional-looking display with ease. The secret? A 3-in-1 Laser Tape Measure that ensures precision every time! 

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Before you start, make sure you have everything you need:

3-in-1 Laser Tape Measure (for precise measurements and leveling)

Pencil (to mark positions on the wall)

Hammer or drill (depending on wall type)

Nails, screws, or picture-hanging hooks

Level (if not using the laser function on the 3-in-1 tape measure)

Step 2: Decide on Your Layout

Take some time to plan your picture frame arrangement. Whether you're hanging a single frame or creating a gallery wall, lay the frames on the floor first to visualize the design. Use your 3-in-1 Laser Tape Measure to ensure even spacing between frames.

Pro Tip: For gallery walls, aim for 2-3 inches between each frame for a balanced look.

Step 3: Measure & Mark the Wall

Using the 3-in-1 Laser Tape Measure, do the following:

Find the center of your wall – Measure the total width and divide by two.

Mark the hanging points – Use the laser feature to project a straight guide onto the wall. This ensures your frames are perfectly aligned.

Measure hanging hardware placement – If your frame has hooks or wire, measure from the top of the frame to the hanging point and transfer that measurement to the wall.

Step 4: Install the Hooks or Nails

Once your spots are marked, install nails, screws, or hooks accordingly. For heavier frames, consider using wall anchors for added support.

Pro Tip: Use the built-in level on your 3-in-1 Laser Tape Measure to double-check accuracy before securing the frame.

Step 5: Hang & Adjust

Now that your hardware is installed, hang the frames and take a step back. Use the laser guide to check if everything is perfectly level. Adjust as needed until you're happy with the final look.
