For picture and mirror hanging at your Long Forest property, start with the product and the practical requirements.

Fix Nik reviews suitable work involving suitable framed pictures and mirrors with assessed hanging systems and loads and confirms the scope before scheduling.
Picture and Mirror Hanging
suitable framed pictures and mirrors with assessed hanging systems and loads
Long Forest property context
Planning picture and mirror hanging in Long Forest starts with the actual item and its setting. Show the front and back of each item, weight information, existing hanging fittings and the complete intended wall. The address identifies the locality; it does not establish the construction, condition or accessibility of the property. For a Long Forest quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
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
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.
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.
A previous fixing position may be convenient but still unsuitable for the new item or its hanging system. Show any damaged wall finish around it. Filling old holes and repainting are separate tasks that should be specified in the enquiry.
