Command picture-hanging strips are designed to release by stretching a tab downward, not peeling out toward you. These instructions are for the picture-hanging version, and damage-free removal is not guaranteed on every surface.

Your try-it-at-home checklist

0 / 6 done

1. Verify that you have Command Picture Hanging Strips and read surface restrictions, especially for wallpaper and weak paint.
2. Support the frame with both hands and carefully lift its bottom corners up and away to separate the interlocking strips. Never yank the entire frame straight out.
3. Find the exposed removal tab on each wall strip. Clear space below, and avoid knives or scrapers against paint.
4. Steady the strip gently and pull the tab slowly straight down, parallel to the wall. Do not peel it toward yourself.
5. Continue stretching until release. Some official instructions show up to about 15 inches (38 cm). Stop if the tab breaks or paint starts lifting.
6. Remove remaining strips one by one, inspect for residue or damage and consult product-specific support if needed. Do not reuse removed strips.
