A: Hi there, the DecoNails™ are rated to hold a maximum of 20 lbs (9 kg).

A: Hi John, thanks for reaching out that's a great question. Our DécoNails™ are designed to work specifically in drywall, and are not recommended for use in plaster walls. Since plaster is generally more brittle than drywall, we recommend pre-drilling a small hole in the plaster prior to adding a nail or screw in order to reduce the stress and chipping around the hanger. Hope that helps - The UTR Team.

A: HI there, thanks for reaching out - that's a great question! Our DécoNails™ were designed specifically to securely hang items in drywall so we cannot recommend they be used in surfaces like mortar. The challenge is that the mortar is very brittle and prone to crumbling, so the best way to secure something in that material is to drill a hole and install an anchor which is flexible enough to prevent that from happening, and then use a screw in the anchor. Hope that helps, happy decorating! - the UTR Team

A: Hi Mimi - that's a great question! We designed our DécoNails™ specifically to create a secure hold in drywall without needing to use a stud. Many times there is no stud in the spot where you want to hang your wall decor, so this lets you hang it with confidence. However, if you do happen to hit a stud when using in the DécoNail, it is strong enough to be hammered in without breaking. Happy decorating - the UTR Team

A: Hi Gina, thanks for reaching out, that's a great question. We designed our DécoNails™ to be a super secure and damage free way to hang your wall art. The plastic heads of the nails have been designed to distribute the weight of the item you are hanging over a larger surface area than a regular nail, which prevents any "tear out" of the drywall, which typically happens when using a regular nail. So in that sense it definitely reduces the damage done to the wall. With regards to the size of the hole, the DécoNail will make the same size hole in the wall as an equivalent nail you would use to hang your picture. Hope that helps, happy decorating! - The UTR Team
