Ratings & Reviews for Hillman Steel 30-lb Capacity Brick hanger 2 - Pack

Low wind areas only

It works great if the mortar in between the bricks is not flush. We just used a chisel and broke enough out so the hanger would wedge in. Once we got it in place it worked great in one location. If there are high winds then they don't stand a chance.

Not made for all brick walls

Product not work on all brick. The brick appeared to be too flushed with the mortar for the hardware to secure to the house.

This item could hold up to 30 lbs.

Great product! Kept me from drilling holes in brick to hang Christmas decorations

Perfect Solution

It’s so easy to use. I didn’t want to have to drill into the bricks by my front door, and this worked great.

Solution that worked

Solved my problem hanging pictures securely on my fireplace facade unlike other brick hooks

You need a gap between brick lip and mortar.

If you don’t have a lip to hang this on the product won’t work. Great idea in theory and not the products fault but you need a gap to attach this too of at least half inch. Sooooo it’s going back.

Don’t apply too much pressure.

The piece that bends to wedge into the brick broke very easily. One did great and the other broke without as much force as the first.

Not a universal fit

Wasted $!! Had to purchase another type of hanger that worked perfectly.

This worked well for hanging an object on my brick fireplace . Very easy to use.

More product selection

Lowes was the only place I could find this product for hanging things on my fireplace.

We used this hanger on 100+ year old brick. We were apprehensive, but our 16 lb art is secure.

Waste of money

I tried these on a brick wall to hold a wire formed Welcome sign. I tried to hang it with four of these (each one supposedly can hold 30 pounds). The four could not hold a three pound sign. Very poor design.

Just what I needed

I had something that I wanted to attach to the side of our brick house. I was looking at all manor of masonry nails, screws, anchors, etc. and stumbled on this little guy. Miracle of miracles, it did the trick, very simple to use and holds a lot of weight. I must admit, I was skeptical. But if you're hanging things on brick, you should give this a look.

Great Anchors

This is a great alternative to driving a concrete nail into your brick wall. When you are finished using them, no unsightly holes to fill. They hold a considerable amount of weight too.

Brick Hanger

Mortar joint must be deep enough for the hanger to work. My joints were not.
