Moreover, how do you hang something on a concrete wall?
For attaching something relatively light to concrete, it's hard to beat the speed and ease of hammer-set anchors. Each anchor consists of an unthreaded pin set into a metal sleeve. Simply drill a hole into the concrete, hold the fixture you're fastening over the hole, then use a hammer to tap the anchor into the hole.
In this regard, how do you hang things on a concrete wall without drilling?
Adhesive Wall Hooks Damage-free adhesive picture hangers come in a range of styles and sizes. Clean the wall with rubbing alcohol, then peel off the paper backing from the adhesive hook and press in place for 30 seconds. Allow an hour for the adhesive to set before hanging the picture.
Command strips can only be applied to smooth surfaces. Avoid adhering them to brick walls, textured wallpaper, concrete or timber. Strips work best on clean, smooth surfaces, so wipe the wall with isopropyl rubbing alcohol (methylated spirits) first. This will ensure your strip bonds properly with the wall.
