Install your Levitate Hanger.

A little preparation. A simple hang. A quick turn to get it straight. Start with the demonstration, then follow the guide below.

The official demonstration shows how the two pieces fit together and how to adjust your picture.

First, check your setup.

One system comes with 4 adhesive strips. Choose the attachment method for your item before you begin.

The two pieces of the Levitate Hanger system

A flat back. The right size.

Use a flat mounting surface on the back of your frame, tablet or decor. Items should be about 20 × 20 inches or smaller.

Up to 5 lb, without nails

Use suitable adhesive on compatible wall and item surfaces. Follow the adhesive manufacturer’s surface and load instructions.

Up to 10 lb, with nails

For heavier items, use at least 8 Command® Large Refill Strips by 3M and secure with nails through Levitate Hanger’s dedicated security holes. Four strips are included, so this setup needs additional strips.

Do not exceed 10 lb. A flat item back does not mean every wall finish is suitable for adhesive.

From the back of your frame to the wall.

Keep the demonstration handy for the placement and orientation of the two pieces.

  1. Prepare the surfaces

    Check that your wall and the back of your item are suitable for the adhesive you’re using. Follow its cleaning and drying instructions before applying any strips.

  2. Attach the hanger to your item

    Use the demonstration to identify and position the pieces on the flat back of your item. Apply the adhesive as directed, including the required pressing time.

  3. Position and secure on the wall

    Choose your position and follow the demonstration to place the wall-facing piece. For heavier items, use the reinforced setup above. Complete the adhesive manufacturer’s pressing and waiting steps before loading the hanger.

  4. Hang, then straighten

    Once the attachments are ready, engage the two pieces as shown in the video. Rotate your picture to adjust its angle until it looks level.

After it’s on the wall.

Adjusting the picture and removing the adhesive are different actions. Here’s what to keep in mind.

Can I adjust the angle later?

Yes. Levitate Hanger lets you rotate your picture while it’s mounted so you can straighten it again when needed.

How do I remove the adhesive?

Support and remove your item before removing the wall attachment. Follow the removal directions for the exact adhesive you used. Do not assume all tapes or strips remove the same way; damage depends on the adhesive, surface and removal method.

The adhesive isn’t holding. What should I do?

Take the item down. Recheck its weight, the compatibility of both surfaces, and the preparation, pressing and waiting instructions for your adhesive. Contact us before trying again if you’re unsure about your setup.

Can I use a different attachment method?

The attachment method changes what the system can safely hold. The guide above covers the confirmed adhesive and reinforced nail setups. For another method or an unusual item, ask us before installing.
