Final Hanging Tips

✔ Use a Level – Prevent crooked installations by double-checking alignment before securing screws.
✔ Double Up Screws – For larger pieces, always use at least two mounting points for balance.
✔ Test Before Finalizing – Hold the piece up before fully securing it to ensure placement is correct.
✔ Consider Spacers – If you want a floating effect, use small rubber bumpers behind the piece.
