hanging pictures on brick wall
Apologies if this is a dumb question.
I recently moved to a 1930's house. I am trying to hang some pictures on the walls and got a picture hanging kit from a diy store. On trying to bang the hook nails into the wall they get so far then buckle. My guess is that I am going through plaster and then hitting brick which is too hard to accept the nail. How best to hang pictures on this kind of wall? Use special masonry nails to penetrate the brick, or drill and screw with rawl plugs? Or some other method? Thanks in advance for advice |
