Install a Small Command Wire Hook in Six Steps: Surface, Pressure and Wait Time
For a small Command wire hook, check the model's weight rating and wall type, clean with rubbing alcohol, press firmly for 30 seconds and wait an hour. Avoid wallpaper, above-bed placement and valuables.
Adhesive hooks cannot be used on every wall or bear unlimited weight. 3M's instructions state an indoor application/use temperature range of about 10–40°C (50–105°F), a seven-day wait after painting and cautions against wallpaper, beds and valuables. The US Command Small Wire Hook 17067LT-9EF is rated at 0.5 lb per hook, but ratings vary by model. Rubbing alcohol is flammable: ventilate and keep away from ignition sources.
