Review on Ultimate Picture Hanging Kit - 100ft Stainless Steel Hanging Wire, 60pcs D Ring Picture Hangers with Screws, and 60pcs Aluminum Crimping Loop Sleeve for Hanging Paintings and Photos by Kelsey Brown

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfortable, good value for money. Beware of screw problems.

This is a handy hanging kit for medium to large frames. Items were clean and well packaged in clear plastic bags. Wire, D-rings, and ferrules work well. However, screws are problematic for several reasons. The first problem is that they are a bit big for smaller frames. In fact, the ones I received are 1.66 cm (+/- 0.01 cm), which is slightly larger than advertised (1.5 cm). With SAE, the difference is about one-sixteenth of an inch. The second and more important issue is that the screws are pretty flimsy. I turned the heads of some screws before pre-drilling the screw holes in the frame. Since I only have these screws in larger, If I'm using heavier frames (see previous comments on bolt size) I'm concerned they will eventually shear under the weight of the frame. Of course, these are not stainless steel screws; But for the price ($10.99 + tax) I suppose it would be overkill. Overall, this set offers good value for money. If the seller resolves the quality control issues with the screws I would give five stars.
