I want to use 3M command strips to mount the framed album on the wall. Is the back of the frame wide and uniformely flat enough for command strips?

I believe so. I have my as a present so its no longer in my possession. You might have to remove the cleat on the back for hanging to allow it to be flush and depending on how thick command strips are you may have to affix to the actual frame since the backing is inset some. It's a well made piece that is solid.

I don't know how wide the 3M strips are, Benjamin. I gave this as a gift and if I remember correctly, the frame itself is flat and level on the back. the surface for a command strip would have to be the same width as the frame itself. I don't remember the width of the frame ... but it's probably 2"-3" or there abouts. Wish I could be more helpful!

I'm not sure about that -- perhaps. I have my strip sqrewed into the side of my wood kitchen cabinet. But I think command strips might work.

Yes mine is currently being hung by the 3M picture strips, i needed to add 4 along the top instead of only 2 put it holds like a champ.

I'm not familiar with those mounting strips. I used screws. If you're asking if the fixture is relatively lightweight, it is. If you're asking whether the part that attaches to the wall/ceiling/cabinets is perfectly flat, it looks that way, but I can't say with absolute certainty without taking it down. Looking at the instructions that came with it, it does appear that there is a good length of a flat surface that would work with mounting strips, as long as the mounting strips will work under the conditions that might exist around the light (for example, I have mine over a sink, where it is sometimes exposed to steam; I'd be nervous with only mounting strips). If you want to see the instructions that come with the fixture, I could not find them on the GE website, but did find them here: http://www.smarthome.com/manuals/59568.pdf. I hope that this helps!

I'm sure you could use Scotch or 3m mounting strips to attach them to walls or any other surface.

Do not use the command strips it comes with! Mine fell off the wall less then 12 hours after I put it up and cracked the bag holder. So disappointing. And I have to wait on approval to exchange it, which is even more frustrating.

Yes, command strips stick well to a textured wall. They don't stick to something as rough as brick though.

No, it is not flat on the back. Tape would not have a large area to grip. I recommend screws.

No, command strips won't work. It really needs to be screwed into the wall to hold the knives. The screw holes are small tho. Easily caulked & a dab of paint & you would never know they were there.

Yes. I used a similar double sided 3M adhesive and when I ran out of that I used the 3M picture hanging system that involves Velcro. The advantage to the picture hanging system is the adhesive can be peeled off and the Velcro allows for adjusting the placement. I's all worked for over a month now without problem.

I'm using it with a 17 X 23 whiteboard and it works very well. So, you should be fine with your poster frame.

FWIW - I have grown VERY fond of 3M's Command strips. I have used the direct double-sided command strips and the picture hanging strips with fasteners. They leave no trace when you take them off, and hold decently well. One of the better inventions of the last few years.

I purchased one of these flat picture mounts and it happen to mount right to the VESA holes. Got it at Ace Hardware. Supports pictures up to 80lbs. Made the monitor real flat to the wall and did not need to spend a lot of money (I believe I paid $6.00 for the mount - maybe less)

I don't have a issue. But I did anchor it in place so I don't move it myself while I'm working at my desk. I used clear 3M command strips in each corner. I can't really tell they're there.

The surface of the back is one big magnet, but I imagine you could affix those Command hanging strips to the back as long as they would stick to a magnet surface.

I used command adhesive strips for mounting pictures - they look like "velcro" and come in white or black. Cut one in half for each end, for a total of 2 hanging strips needed per deflector. Stuck one half on wood register and one on plastic deflector at both ends. The plastic deflectors don't move.

Wall mount works best you could use velcro tape to clip on to frame if needed. Tape not supplied.
