Because the weight of the object is dispersed along the entire length of the hardware, heavier objects may be mounted efficiently and securely with cleat hangers. The medium and heavy-duty versions are capable of supporting very heavy items that no other hanging method can handle. If you required a 2m length on the back of a piece you would require 2 x ‘Z Bars’ – one for the wall and one for the piece.Its overlap allows the bracket to easily engage during blind installations for bulky items such as headboards and works in recessed pockets. Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions. I had been thinking of using 1-inch thick birch plywood for the cleats, with the mating edges angled at 45 degrees, but testing its reliability by loading it with my "precious" hand tools is likely to keep me awake the first few nights (a bit like when I first filled my 125 litre aquarium sitting on top of the cabinet that I made for it - given the option, I'd probably have chosen to have several paper hand-towel companies on speed-dial for the first few days!

I've used both 3/4" pine and 12mm birch ply for cleats successfully; rip the donor board in half at a bevel, secure one part to the wall, the other part to the cabinet in question (using glue and screws as Shady suggests, and forget em, job done.The matching cleat is positioned and then attached with a suitable fastener set flush to the face of the cleat, make sure the narrow face of the cleat is level and securely attached to the wall – creating a narrow angle between the top of the cleat and the wall.

Commonly referred to as French Cleat Hangers—heavy duty panel hangers, Z Clips, panel clips, wall cleat, hanging cleat, or simply—cleats—are commonly used to install any large object that needs support across its full length for mounting. Featuring two slightly offset metal cleats--one installed on the wall and one on the back of the object to be displayed--- these aluminum cleats are the modern versions of traditional French cleats and offer efficient support for any frame.

Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections—they may also appear in recommendations and other places.

To hang place it flush against the wall and let the frame slide down the wall slowly until the cleats connect together. Place the wood frame or panel face down and attach the second cleat to the back of the frame's top rail.
