Picture and Mirror Hanging
suitable framed pictures and mirrors with assessed hanging systems and loads
Service overview
Show the frame, backing and attached hanging hardware as well as the glass. A damaged frame or unsuitable rear fitting may prevent secure hanging. Glass cutting, frameless glazing installation and repairs to specialist mirror systems are outside this service.
Identify unusually fragile pieces, antiques or items needing conservation handling before booking. Standard handyman hanging does not imply specialist art installation or restoration capability. Oversized unsupported loads and damaged hanging systems must be assessed rather than accepted from a photograph.
A mirror can be heavier than its appearance suggests. Provide weight information and a photograph of its rear hanging system. The wall fixing and the fittings on the frame must both suit the load; neither should be judged from the front view alone.
The agreed service covers layout, hanging-system and substrate review, compatible fixings for assessed loads. Exclusions: Glass cutting, frameless glazing, conservation handling, oversized unsupported loads, electrical work.
Common situations
A picture arrangement benefits from an agreed layout before holes are made. Show the items together and mark the desired area in a room photo. Discuss spacing and alignment without assuming that a single-item quote includes an entire gallery wall.
List the weight and fittings for each picture or mirror separately. Similar dimensions can conceal very different loads. A combined request helps plan the visit, but every object still needs compatible support and its own agreed position and handling requirements.
Masonry, plasterboard and other surfaces need different fixing assessments. Share what is known about the wall and nearby services. Existing holes do not establish suitable support for a heavier object, and unknown construction can require further review before installation.
Donvale property context
For Donvale enquiries, describe the available workspace as well as the requested picture and mirror hanging. The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. Include the best access contact and explain any restrictions affecting the work area. Donvale sits near Mitcham, Nunawading, Park Orchards and Doncaster East. Fix Nik can review practical maintenance requests across this part of Greater Melbourne, with the job scope and property conditions guiding timing, materials and the appropriate service.

FAQ
The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. Unexpected damage, incompatible materials or access limitations should be discussed before extending the work. A photo enquiry is not authorisation for additional tasks or a promise to resolve every concealed problem.
Agree the layout, select compatible fixings for assessed support and check the level and security of suitable framed items. Arrange the required owner or manager permission and identify the access contact. Include restrictions affecting drilling, finishes or room use where relevant; the property address alone does not establish authority to carry out work.
The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. Explain what has already been changed and show the current condition. Retain loose parts or product labels. Previous work can affect the available options, so it should be disclosed before the quote is agreed.
Agree the layout, select compatible fixings for assessed support and check the level and security of suitable framed items. List each additional item with its own photos and dimensions. Compatible tasks can be considered together, but grouping an enquiry does not expand the service into electrical, plumbing, structural or other specialist work.
A mirror can be heavier than its appearance suggests. Provide weight information and a photograph of its rear hanging system. The wall fixing and the fittings on the frame must both suit the load; neither should be judged from the front view alone.
The chosen position should allow for doors, furniture and normal room use. Agree the layout before drilling. A wall photograph with approximate dimensions can help identify conflicts without relying on a generic hanging height that may not suit the space.
Show the front and back of each item, weight information, existing hanging fittings and the complete intended wall. Explain which spaces need to remain usable and who can arrange access. The appointment and preparation are agreed around the actual work; an occupied room should not be assumed to be clear or ready.
