1. Drill: the classic and robust solution

The traditional drilling method is ideal for heavy frames or for a permanent installation.

Benefits :

• Robust and reliable, supports heavy weights.
• Permanent and long-lasting solution.

Disadvantages:

• Creates holes in the wall, requiring filling and painting if you remove the frame.
• Requires tools (drill, screws, dowels) and a little DIY.

2. Fixing without drilling: lightness and simplicity

For lightweight frames, fragile walls or if you are renting, no-drill solutions are ideal.

a. Adhesive tabs

Benefits :

• Easy to use, no tools required.
• Leave no marks (or very few) on the wall.
• Perfect for lightweight frames and smooth surfaces.

Disadvantages:

• Less strong than screws, not suitable for heavy frames.
• May peel off over time, especially in humid rooms.

b. Fixing pastes

Benefits :

• Reusable and repositionable.
• Discreet and invisible behind the frame.

Disadvantages:

• Suitable only for very light posters and frames.
• May leave greasy residue on some walls.

c. Adhesive hooks

Benefits :

• Support more weight than adhesive tabs.
• Variety of models for different types of frames.

Disadvantages:

• Less discreet than tabs or paste.
• Some models may leave marks upon removal.

3. Place on a wall shelf: the modular and decorative option

For modern style and maximum flexibility, opt for wall shelves.

Benefits :

• No holes or adhesives required.
• Allows you to easily change the layout of the frames.
• Adds a decorative touch to the room.

Disadvantages:

• Requires installation of wall shelves.
• The frames must be stable and not at risk of falling.
