Description

This is a quick print model for a multi adjustable picture hook. It prints in less than 20 minutes and uses 4.4 g of filament.

Hanging pictures can be frustrating. It is not easy to get the frame aligned with others. Often times you end up with many holes in the wall before getting it right.

This multi-adjustable hooks may change that as it allows for vertical, horizontal, angular and lateral adjustment.

The hook consists of three parts.

• A notched backplate that mounts with its back to the wall. The notches allow for vertical position adjustment;
• A notched adjuster that clips onto to the backplate. The notched adjuster also has 4 picks that grab onto the wall to inhibit rotation and to lock in angular adjustment. The top of the adjuster has a grooved French cleat;
• A French cleat that screws onto the back of the picture frame. The French cleat system not only securely holds the frame but it also allows lateral movement by means of the grooves. Two sizes are provided, one for small and one for larger frames. The clean mounts using no. 6 (4 mm) wood screws. The length of the screw depends on the thickness and size of the frame.

Instructions

Installation is quick and easy.

1. Clip the adjuster onto the backplate and screw into the wall (using an anchor nut is recommended for drywall);
2. Screw the French cleat on the picture frame;
3. Adjust by moving the adjuster up or down or rotating it.
4. You can further adjust by moving the French cleat laterally using the grooves.
