Is it light enough to hang using just push pins? I live in a rented apartment and dont have the liberty to hang nails per se. Kindly confirm. Thanks.

I wouldn't recommend it. It's not extremely heavy, but I doubt that push pins would be enough to keep it from falling. (Unless you get those really hard-core push pins that are like little nails)

You can use regular push pins. There is cork underneath. You can also use magnets.

I'm super lazy....so, the first time I hung mine - I tried to use tacks. If i was only hanging paper, that may have worked. But I'm using them to hang and display my jewelry. The tacks lasted about 2 months before I was woken up by a loud clatter and bang as it fell to the ground at 2 am.I'm not hanging them up using 1 screw (they include the screw and drywall mounts) and 1 tack. Because aligning it to both tacks was a pain in the ass - and as I said. I'm lazy. This combo has been up for 6 months and shows no signs of slippage.

I used mine to hang jewelry on and I could push the pins all the way in. However, they may have come out the back but I wasn't moving them so I didn't care.

Extremely Light......Great for hanging with a small screw in type of a hook if needed. They are working fine over a year now....

The nail is about twice as thick as the corresponding part on a typical bulletin board push pin or thumb tack. In my opinion, the nail could be a bit longer, but they have worked out well for my chair.

There are small metal anchors that you can attach to the back of the frame if you want to use them to hang the board on two nails on a wall. The hardest part is making sure that the nails are level with each other. I do not recommend eye-balling it, use a level if you have one available.

I just used nails and it works great. The board comes with a mounting kit as well.

I used regular nails when I used them for hanging really light things, like aprons. Now, I use drywall screws and they hold up well for heavier things, like jewelry or towels.

I tried the drawers again, pretending my nails were long. You would have to grip the handle at an angle with your finger. If the drawer was heavy, it could be difficult. If its light, then it depends on the angle of the grip. I would say chance of a nail breaking are high.

Karyn - I did not attach mine to the wall for that very reason. I was able to just set mine on top of an existing cabinet set in my bathroom. I am a big fan of liquid nails. It comes in a tube like chaulk so you will need a gun. You just need small strips about an inch inside the edges on the back and then stick it on the wall and hold. Chris

I have mine hanging from the ceiling, against the wall, to the right of my lathe. Was able to hang a strong LED light from the bottom with a couple rare earth magnets. Seems to work well.

It is held up by 2 mounting clips, it depends on your wall, if you have hollow drywall nails may not do it. Anything solid like wood nails will work.

Our Map rail is used to hang quilting materials. We use regular pins and it holds them well although they do not do in very far. I would think that push pins would work if the objects are not too heavy, but this cork is not think enough for staples.

Whatever you normally would with whatever type of hanger you would use normally. The hook part is the thing that's out of the wall, so the stuff just plops onto that instead of a nail.

I'd say the two best options are sticky poster tack or those very thin gold nails. I can't remembee their specific name, but they are really skinny so they won't leave big holes in your wall or be very noticable on the poster.

The Clock Looks Heavy, But It Is Really Very LIGHT. We Hung Ours With A Single Nail/Screw. I Guess It's Always Best To Hang Wall Hangings From Studs But Ours Works Well As It Is. Still Love It, But Turned Off Cuckoo & Music For A While (Via The Switch).
