Make the right choices to hang your wall clock

 

Proud of your new wall clock, all you have to do is find the ideal place for it in your home and choose the right option to hang it without fear that it will end up as a pendulum on the ground.

 Choose the right place to mount your XXL wall clock

 If you have let yourself be seduced by an XXL version, it is because you have a wall large enough to accommodate it. This giant model is generally intended for the living room , placed in the center of the largest wall to display a very specific decoration to the room. The clock will be the only wall decoration item, unless you like the exhibition gallery atmosphere.

 Its large size makes this clock particularly heavy and its hanging requires some precautions . Although it is often better not to make a hole in the walls of your house or apartment, the XXL clock is too heavy for conventional fastening systems which are intended for objects weighing less than 1kg. To fix your giant clock without worry, the ideal solution is to stick a nail, or a wall plug and it is on this solid anchor point that you will put the notch of your clock.

 Hang a wall clock in a bedroom or kitchen

 For smaller rooms, such as a kitchen or bedroom, the clock chosen will also be of a more reasonable size and can be hooked up very easily .

 The advantage with small clocks is that you can move it easily without leaving a trace on the wall, depending on your desires or the change of mind of your youngest who ultimately prefers to have his clock above his office .

To hang your clock without making a hole, you have the choice between the double-sided adhesive tape, the hook fixed to the wall by adhesive tape or the fixing paste .

·         In a child's room, it will be both playful and decorative by encouraging your toddler to learn to tell the time while contemplating his favorite hero.

·         If you want to hang an original clock in your kitchen, it will look great above your table or worktop . You just have to remember to keep it away from the cooking plates to avoid projections .
