Mounting A Mirror On Concrete Wall

Hang a mirror using hooks step 1 hold the mirror in place close to eye level.

Mounting a mirror on concrete wall.

I am trying to hang a 75 pound mirror on a brick wall. Use a level to ensure that the top of the mirror is perfectly horizontal. 1825 interiors is not giving professional advice or instruct. Stick the mirror firmly to the wall.

Once the anchors are in place the process becomes the same as hanging a mirror on any other wall though you must use screw in brackets instead of those with nails. Use a power drill to carefully make pilot holes into the frame using the pre drilled holes in the bracket as a guide. Monkey hooks are simple devices that allow you to hang a mirror or other object on drywall easily. Step 1 hold the mirror against the wall in the location where you want to hang it.

Center the mounting bracket or cleat on the back of the mirror frame and level with its top edge. I have 100 pound gauge wire doubled heavy duty hooks and masonry nails but i m still afraid it s going to fall. Rest one corner of the mirror on the support and keep the other slightly lifted. If the wall is block construction you re going to have a hard time trying to hold the mirrors in place while the glue sets up since the surface is porous.

If you have anymore questions please let us know. As the mastic comes into contact with the wall allow the lifted corner to slide back down and rest against the support spreading the glue across the wall surface. Press it against the wall. Attach the bar to the frame with screws.

Liquid nails has an adhesive specifically for mirrors that will adhere your mirrors to your concrete walls. Mark the wall near the center of the top edge with a pencil or painter s tape. It takes about 10 minutes for it to set and 24 hours for it to cure. Be advised that if you ever decide to take the mirrors down it will be a nightmare job and the glue marks on the concrete will be permanent.

In fact installing a monkey hook is so easy you do not even need any tools aside from a tape measure and pencil for proper positioning. Apply it to the back of your mirror evenly and stick it on.
