Wall mounting · Wantirna South
For picture and mirror hanging at your Wantirna South property, start with the product and the practical requirements. The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. 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
Service overview
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.
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.
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.
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.
Wantirna South property context
Planning picture and mirror hanging in Wantirna South 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 gate or door, include the frame, posts, hinges, latch and gaps. Explain whether the item drags, swings, fails to close or cannot secure the property.
Planning the work
Do not add weight to the hanging system or disturb its fittings. Report movement and seek specialist handling for damaged or unusually fragile items. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Agree the layout, select compatible fixings for assessed support and check the level and security of suitable framed items. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
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.
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.

Glass cutting, frameless glazing, conservation handling, oversized unsupported loads, electrical work. Describe any additional requirement separately. Suitability is reviewed before work is accepted, and a specialist requirement must not be treated as a routine extension of the quoted handyman task.
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.
The item weight, frame fittings, wall construction and safe fixing locations determine whether ordinary hanging work is suitable. Share the exact product or part specification before purchasing.
