Why are you talking about this crap? Showing a dowel nail for concrete and comparing it with a fastening for drywall
Heavy things need to go into the studs. You proved that. Thanks.
Agreed. I don't trust hanging anything over a few pounds with drywall anchors. Gravity never rests.
Then I just need a nail that I already have.
@@lym3204I’d use a screw more than a nail
I use the 3M claws for hanging pictures and they are amazingly good. As for their weight capacity…I wouldn’t hang anything that weighs 45 lbs from just drywall from a single point. I have put up very large painting and in those cases I use two 45 lbs claws.
3M also makes a 65 lb claw.
And that would be your choice. BTW, if I to choose between your knowledge base and the mfgr, I'm probably going with the mfgr.
@@nothankyou5524 what Patrick said was perfectly logical after watching multiple fails. your response just felt bitter why you so bitter lol
Note that the packaging says you didn't get more weight capacity with multiple. So even if you use two anchors, if the item is 40lb both anchors still need to be the 45lb ones -- not two of the 25lb ones.
Saves time and money for drywalls. Had mine for ten years from three different homes we moved from. It can be reused indefinitely. Takes mere seconds to mount it. I use them to hang all kinds of picture frames and heavy wall art. Leaves almost no trace on the dry wall once removed. Saves so much time having do no more patch or repair on the drywall. I used these in conjunction with museum putty to stabilize wall frames. (I use museum putty to earthquake-proof all vertical standing decors at home).
Last year we remodeled our kitchen and I put up a magnetic bar for holding knives. The manufacturer sent a piece of double-sided tape with it and there was no way that was going to work. I purchased a 3M Claw system that included two brackets that were rated at 20 lbs total. It worked like a charm and I heartily support this product.
I will buy these for hanging pics. I like the double sided tape foam arrow guide idea! If I need to hang anything 30lbs or heavier, I think the safest route would be to find a stud and put a nail or screw through the drywall and into the stud.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to check out the 3M hangers. It gives me another resource that I wasn't aware. Very nice video with a thoughtful approach for testing.
I have used these but definitely didn’t load them to the max. I used two 15 pound ones for a 20 mirror.
Really great video! You jumped right in and did a very practical test using the anchors AS THEY WERE INTENDED TO BE USED! So often I see people testing things differently from how they are supposed to be used (by pulling straight out instead of applying a vertical load, for example). And like you said, don't go hanging 45lbs on drywall only. Find a stud if you have to hang something that heavy. Good job! And thanks!
You need to buy her more roses to fill her frame!!!
Thanks for bringing this product to our attention. I’d add one more factor to the equation of “should I hang it on the drywall in my old-ish house” and that is a number of paint layers you have on the drywall. In my 50 years old house there are walls that have 4 layers of paint (got some chipped areas while painting). So I’m not sure if I want to use this product
Yes anything that makes the outer paper layer of the dry wall thicker (layers of paint or wallpaper, especially if both!) would mean the teeth of these hangers penetrate the dry wall material less and less deeply.
Everyone likes to hang things on their wall, including myself. You're gonna need some strong anchors for that 😁
Loved your detailed test and analysis!! Thank you
Love your methodology for testing these. Saw them for sale before and was curious
Great video! Nice job demonstrating how to use everything and what its capabilities are. You're getting close to 1/2 million subscribers now. Congrats!
Nicely done! I always wondered about the ratings of drywall hangers and you did a stellar job of testing and demonstrating the limits. Very useful instruction video.
Oh, yeah, I love the 3M Claw product, for hanging pictures they are just fantastic. Also leaves a much smaller hole when removed than a nail does.
This is a great channel. I'm a woman whose husband is not useful in any home improvement projects (he can't even hang a picture). I thank you for your videos, you're doing a great job!
So you're the man of the house?
You could have made your point without disparaging your husband.
😂
Happy Mother’s Day to your husband
@@RichHodges23a woman who knows can’t do better complaining about her life decisions 🤷♂️
Great new product info video man... Thank you !
Great point on humidity!
Thank you for your professionalism
You are Amazing Bro. Thanks for helping us . And bringing close to real life uses of different picture hangers. Love previous Sheetrock wall Anker's videos. You are a real help. I just wish all these manufacturing companies .Would recognize the time, effort, and expertise you are putting to educate homeowners and consumers like us. God bless you and bless your beautiful family. 🙏🙏. Thanks.
Great video review. Thank you
Excellent detailed video, analysis and summary. I’ve never used these gizmos but they look fine for lightweight objects. Thanks.
Nice video. One thing I would add is that you tested using wires where the weight of the items is low which makes it heavier for the anchor. The closer the weight is to the anchor, the more support it gets.
Thank you for letting me know! 🙏🏽😊
I would like to know how the length of the wire going straight down actually increases gravity, because that doesn't make sense to me?
Makes it heavier, huh? I would never have thought that.
Thank you for this video! Good information well-presented!
These look good for lightweight picture frames. I agree with your final assessment. Thank yi7 for reviewing and testing another product!
I’m glad I could be of help! Thank you so much! 🙏🏽😊
Thanks for sharing this test. I probably would trust this with more than photo frames.
I’m taking that Rose idea!
Good info there. Thanks for the test review! ❤
Well done experiment and video, thank you. We are remodeling the home and looking for the best way to hang pictures and this looks good.
This was so helpful! I just ordered some! ❤
These are handy thanks for sharing them, thanks my friend
I just got these and used them with a heavy mirror. Super easy to use and still going strong. I’m hooked! 😉
Did you use the 45 lbs? How heavy is the mirror? I have a large picture frame and wondering if I should go with the one rated for 65 lbs, but then it also leaves more holes. Eek. Thnx!
The problem with all of these hanging products is they are stronger than the drywall.
The only ones I trust are the Swpeet anchors. They penetrate the drywall and expand for a solid grip. But unlike most others they leave a tiny mark when removed.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 🙏🏽😊
Keep doing these type of videos. I'm loving every second of it.
Thank you so much for your love, support and feedback! 🙏🏽😊
I've used them but they are not really good for old plastered walls or heavily painted walls but they do work fairly well on newer drywall in my house and garage. I still prefer wall anchors but thanks for the video.
Excellent presentation, thanks.
Great test! Thanks for the video. Those do seem like a convenient option for pictures or other relatively lightweight objects.
I would also suggest banging the wall to simulate kids running down the hall or the occasional bump that people give the wall while they're walking.
Another video much appreciated it. Thanks.
Neat product and great video! One note on your testing approach: Drywall deforms. To properly test each weight level for each claw, you should reseat it to a new hole every time and leave it for an hour.
We have a heavy frame/art and will look to use two or even three of these 3M anchors - - disperse the weight and less pressure on each anchor.
Very very helpful info thanks much
Thanks for introducing us to the product and then doing the weight test
I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽👍🏽😊
What should you use on plaster walls? And do you have a video on hanging something on a plaster wall?
Watched your other videos....many thanks.
I actually went out and bought five of these because of this video! $1 if you shop around.
Looks like as long as it's a vertical load they do fairly well. Any lateral stress and they fail. It's a cool idea with light loads.
Wow, these look really useful. Good for pictures, though I am not sure if I can use them to hand a soap/hand sanitiser dispenser, but I'd be curious to try. I am not sure if I can because of weight, but because the hook might not be big enough to hold into the dispenser.
Thank you for this review. I did not know that these existed. I would rather use these for pictures instead of the traditional method. Great job on the detail tha went into testing.
thanks for the thorough info and input :-D
Thank you.. looks like may be a good product for lite weight things…easy to use..
Love It!! Keep them coming 😁👍👍
Great test! I was curious about those.
Thank you! I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊
A fantastic and brilliant review of the 3M claw product. Since I subscibed to you about almost 2 years ago (at a guess) I feel most guilty to admit this is only the second video Ive watched of yours. What a big mistake Ive made. I should be watching all your video reviews. They are so helpful and useful to the general public. I'll make an effort to watch more of them. Please keep up the good work. Take care and all the best. 👍.
Great channel! Thank you
never seen those before. pretty cool
This is a really excellent channel.
Nicely done video. Clear and concise. I even saved your video for future reference.
It's useful when you want to change the position of the hook. also durable in the rating weight.
Well done review/commentary!
Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏽😊
Great vid as usual 👏
That’s cool. Thanks for the vid. I’ll check them out. Hope 3M sends you a thank you also.
And wow, we're in the same city! (At least your PO box is!!). Will indeed check out more of your vids!
thanks for the video
excellent.
On that middle one that failed, I think the anchor needs to be perfectly level if a person is going to hang something that heavy on the wall. I would be willing to bet if you hung another one at the same degree of angle, that it would fail again.
Great videos and love the channel!
Thank you so much for your suggestion! Thank you also for the love and support! 🙏🏽😊
I think it was more that the weight was swinging a bit and as it was at the limit of the hooks rating it worked it's way out. They obviously designed for a perfectly static force downwards.
I have to believe using these in textured walls would significantly reduce the holding power. I do like the chevrons for marking the locations to install. Thanks for the informative video. I was not aware these existed.
By observing the max weight, these look amazing. For heavier items I would generally use two to,support the item.
Thank you for sharing.
I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊
Thank you, now i know how to use that chevron to make a mark on the wall
Great for pictures
Thanks 😊.
It’s just for pictures-if you have a big picture then do one in each corner. It’s a quick way to hang a bunch of pictures-no tool and no mess. Did you install the glass in the garage door ? Is there a video?
Really appreciate your tests and reviews. I've gotten burned on crappy anchors before. I now only use the Bullfix anchors that you reviewed before. They are so strong and super easy to install. I'm so happy that I watched your review of them. I bought them right away and have used them 3 different times already!
Thanks!
I have used this 3M drywall anchor to hang a heavy marble mosaic artwork, it holds. Installation is the easiest.
Very informative!
Thank you so much 👍🏽😊
We use these everywhere. Simple.
Thank you, 👍
Great video...
But i would really have wanted to see you investigating if there was any visible reason for why the 2nd anchor lost its grip by taking off the first layer of the wall and look at the woodbase.
Great video very informative well presented just really very concise no beating around the bush. Love your videos and I very much appreciate all your efforts you go into making these videos. I have used a number of your techniques with fantastic results and I work as a maintenance personal in a hotel with close to 600 rooms so I not only speak from experience but I speak personally about how fantastic you and your videos are. Thank you truly thank you very much keep up the great work.
I used one yesterday and I was skeptical I could push into plasterboard without using a hammer. It was surprisingly easy to use and is holding a very heavy frame.
I know it wasn't intended... but I had to bust out laughing when you said "now I know we like to hang things on our wall, including myself"
I couldn't help but be reminded of my uncle, who thought it'd be hilarious to tape my younger brother to the garage ceiling using duct tape.
good times. these anchors would probably be a little safer! 🤣
Couldn't use these in the UK, it's rare that plasterboard (drywall) walls are left bare like that, they're usually finished with plaster.
Great video
I could not have asked for a better demonstration, Keeping it real
I think they have a good use for pictures and light things good for renters that don’t want to leave big repair marks also you could reuse them that would save you some $
Yes these would be great for renters. Gives options 👍🏽🙏🏽😊
I wonder if using two, one on each side of the frame like a lot of picture frames are set up, would distribute the weight better. I like that the holes are much smaller. I’ve had success with Gorilla Hooks that rest against the back of the dry wall, creating a smaller hole, but these look even better. Thank you for the information
i’d prefer an anchor because of its depth into the sheetrock. But I agree about the ease for repair to the drywall after removal.
Thank you!
You're welcome!☺️
What is great about the traditional anchors with a wire is you don't need to find any center because the wire allows for you to adjust.
Thank you
Thank you so much for watching! 🙏🏽😊
What you should use to hang 55" or bigger TVs into drywall?.
I was advised to use butterfly metal anchors...
Great test, thanks. 👍🏻😊
Have you ever heard of Fast Cap? They have drywall anchors that can withstand 150 pounds. You should check them out.
Thanks
I’m glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊
decent hanger for pictures
Nice video. I really think these turn into "knives" with a constant pressure. The contact surface area to weight ratio seems off. I would be willing to bet if they made those "legs" triangular you would be able to 2x or 3x the same weight without a much larger hole.
I was thinking same. I use the Commander stick on picture anchors and I have pictures in glass frames that have been up for years, and the best part, no holes or slices in the walls.
Sweet !!!
Thanks man! Looks like your the man with your wife’s 🌹 roses she saved🥰🙏✌️
These look great for hanging things, but what about intalling wall hooks or towel racks, etc.?
Have not used the 3M CLAW Hanger yet, but after this outstanding review I am going out to buy a pack today. Thanks for the great review
