Can these be hung with the Velcro strips that do not damage walls? Like the "Command Picture Hanging Strips", or do these have a hallow back?

If I remember correctly it is a hallow back. Either way, I do not think Velcro strips would be strong enough to hold this to your wall :(

I don't think velcro eould work because it's quite heavy when you put your brooms and mops on it. Not quite sure, but from what i remember the back was hallow.

The back is hollow and they supply you with the necessary mounting hardware. I don't think I would trust velcro for this application.

I ignored the anchors all together, and went with 3M command strips. Worked like a charm!Command Picture Hanging Strips, 4-Small, 8-Medium

I used command adhesive strips for mounting pictures - they look like "velcro" and come in white or black. Cut one in half for each end, for a total of 2 hanging strips needed per deflector. Stuck one half on wood register and one on plastic deflector at both ends. The plastic deflectors don't move.

They are flat on the back. We used Command Strips and put them up individually to make a border along the ceiling. I guess you could glue them to a string/ribbon and make a banner also. Hope this helps.

I actually mounted ours with the command picture strips and it has held up fabulous. Easy to take down if need be and replace back as well.

Do not use the command strips it comes with! Mine fell off the wall less then 12 hours after I put it up and cracked the bag holder. So disappointing. And I have to wait on approval to exchange it, which is even more frustrating.

I agree with the other responder. If you purchase Command strips (I use the Velcro ones in my office so I can reposition things slightly to get them level), you should be able to hang it without issue. If/when you need to remove, you just pull straight down on the sticky strips and they release without damage.

Yes,I did....go to Home Depot or the like & get some 2 inch wide Industrial Strength Velcro & put a full ength strip top & bottom or even around all 4 sides & do the matching strips on your wall or wherever & you're good to go. Tip; once you apply the strips to the wall & to the Unit let both fully adhere over 24 hours say,before you mount the piece. Technically you don't have to but I find the Velcro sticky side adheres better long term if you don't immediately mount the Unit.Good Luck,CJ

The clips are great and nice and tight. They look like a flat c, they have a hole in the middle which is recessed. You screw they clip to whatever and snap the strip in. The strip can have the clip anywhere along the length of the back. I did not use mine on a wall but rather on a custom metal bracket I made and attached to the rear of a piece of furniture.

FWIW - I have grown VERY fond of 3M's Command strips. I have used the direct double-sided command strips and the picture hanging strips with fasteners. They leave no trace when you take them off, and hold decently well. One of the better inventions of the last few years.

Yes. They're not like the nails you'd get with cheap picture hangers, but more like thick/long tacks (very strong) tacks. They do minimal damage to walls and can be easily pulled out if you need /want to reposition you frames for any reason. These hangers are the best for hanging art /photos flush on the wall. Definitely pay attention to the weight limit of the hangers you're getting - they range from 10 lbs to 500 lbs. The size of the hanger differs, as well as the length /thickness of the tack.

I used small velcro Command Strips instead of the hanger on the top (it's retractable, so I just pushed it down so it doesn't show). I put 1 command strip across the top, the bottom, and spaced 2 along each side and velcro'd it to the wall since many people will be taking forms in and out of the various folders. It makes it a little more stable, and the strips worked great!

use 3m command products instead. that way no holes in your wall. they are amazing! i even hang pictures with them!

The surface of the back is one big magnet, but I imagine you could affix those Command hanging strips to the back as long as they would stick to a magnet surface.

I used the small key holder command damage-free hooks and they work great. I didn't use a string. I just put them on the wall like I would of put the screws. But I'm pretty sure the string idea would work. Just make sure you use picture frame wire. I used string to hold a medium size picture once and the string broke and my frame was shattered. Good luck.

YES! I have used it on a vertical wall and it works great. Amazon sells one "Command Picture Hanging Strips, Small, White, 8-Strip for about $6.00.

No. it is a sturdy fabric which can hold quite a combined weight of folders/ files. I have always used small hooks in the wall. If using stick-on Command strip hooks you would need to purchase the ones which allow for a reasonable weight.
