How much does a picture hanging service cost?

Picture hanging with Monty's is priced by the visit, and most customers save by hanging several pieces at once instead of booking each piece on its own.

Heavy mirrors, gallery walls with careful spacing, and masonry walls take more time than a single frame on drywall. Tell us what you want hung when you book, and you'll get a price before the work starts.

How do you hang a heavy mirror or art safely?

A heavy mirror or large piece of art needs to be anchored into a stud, or held with hardware rated above its weight. A nail or a plastic drywall anchor isn't enough.

Monty's weighs the piece, finds the studs, and uses a French cleat, D-rings with heavy-duty hangers, or toggle bolts sized for the load. Oversized pieces are hung with a second set of hands so they go up level and stay there.

How do you plan a gallery wall?

Monty's lays out a gallery wall on the floor or with paper templates before any holes go in the wall.

We keep even spacing between frames, usually 2 to 3 inches, and center the group at eye level, about 57 to 60 inches from the floor. You approve the layout before we hang it.

Can you install curtain rods and shelves in the same visit?

Yes. Curtain rods, blinds, floating shelves and bracket shelves are often booked together with picture hanging.

Rods are mounted high and wide to make windows look larger, and shelves are anchored for what they'll hold, not just for their own weight. For floor-to-ceiling shelving or cabinetry, see our custom built-ins.
