What We Do

Picture Hanging
in Chicago

Picture hanging Chicago — 32 Build

Hanging art and mirrors correctly requires more than a hammer and a nail. Proper placement at the right height, level installation across multiple pieces, appropriate hardware for the wall type and weight, and zero visible damage when pieces eventually move — these are the details that separate professional installation from DIY.

32 Build handles picture hanging and art installation throughout Chicago — from a single oversized mirror to a full gallery wall with dozens of pieces. We assess wall type and weight, select the appropriate hardware, and install everything level and precisely positioned.

We work on drywall, plaster, brick, concrete, and tile. We also patch walls from previous poor installations before re-hanging new pieces.

How It Works

Our Process

01

Layout Planning

For gallery walls, we lay out all pieces on the floor first to finalize spacing, arrangement, and proportions before marking the wall.

02

Wall Assessment

We identify wall type (drywall, plaster, masonry), locate studs or blocking, and select appropriate hardware rated for the weight.

03

Precise Installation

Each piece is hung level and positioned exactly as planned. For gallery walls, we use paper templates to mark exact positions before driving any hardware.

04

Final Check

All pieces are checked for level and correct height. Any minor touch-ups to wall are addressed. Final result is reviewed with the client before we leave.
