Hang up your favorite photos and art with Command 4 lb Small Picture Hanging Strips—no tools needed. These adhesive strips work on a range of smooth surfaces and are easy to remove cleanly, making them ideal for temporary displays or renters. Remember, they’re best for items up to 4 pounds and on properly prepared surfaces.
Reality Check
Command 4 lb Small Picture Hanging Strips are adhesive-backed strips designed for mounting lightweight picture frames and decor items (up to 8 x 10 inches, 4 pounds) on smooth indoor surfaces such as painted walls, finished wood, glass, and tiles. They offer a no-tools-required option for quickly adding art or photos without nails, screws, or hardware, making them especially convenient in rented spaces.
However, the main trade-off is that these strips are not suitable for heavier objects or for use on wallpaper, and some users have found that the plastic adhesive can peel or lose grip, especially if the surface is not prepared properly or the weight limit is exceeded. While setup is straightforward, there’s an essential prep step: surfaces must be cleaned with rubbing alcohol, and you should avoid placing them on freshly painted walls or in areas where accidental falls would cause problems. For most light decorating needs, they’re handy and easy to remove, but anyone thinking about hanging valuable or heavy items should look for sturdier solutions.
Best For: People in apartments, dorms, or rentals wanting to hang lightweight art without damaging walls
Not Recommended For: Those needing to hang heavy, valuable, or breakable items, or looking for long-term mounting on all wall types
