Hi trolls,

How to stick things thats not very heavy onto walls without leaving a permanent mark onto the wall, ie consider you rent an office and the agreements says that u cannot drill the wall(not even nail, then repair the hole later). How do you put things like a router, a picture, etc something that is less than 1 KG onto the wall safely without worrying it fall anytime ?

Thanks.

double sided tape

or get those wall hooks from daiso, which uses heat to melt the adhesive. when want to remove, use hairdryer and it will come off clean.

Build another wall, so that your first wall is pristine from any mark.

suction type? if smooth wall...

If double sided also can, later can remove easily. But inspect the quality of the paint first, if regular emulsion paint then high probability the paint gonna come off together with the tape.. If tiles then no problem lo...

3M wall stickers.

this site will help u.

i use this when i rent in the UK. my landlord was pretty anal about wall damage and stuff. so i bought a whole bunch of these stickers. they can take quite a lot of weight (especially if u use a series of them). and they dont damage the walls or ur items.

after use, all u need to do is pull the flap on the sticker downwards (parallel to the wall). the entire sticker will come off without a mark on the wall.

As some forummers here pointed out already, 3M command strips should do the trick. Can be pretty pricey though if you're buying a bunch of them.

Yes, use Command Brand 3M hooks as suggested. I just bought 1 today for hanging my towel. RM10.80 17004 Jumbo Hook with Adhesive Strips (general purpose). Can hold up to 3.4kg. You can easily remove these hooks without damaging the walls / doors, etc. They have clear instructions.
You probably don't need something that strong (<1kg). They are many other varieties with less strength.

Command hooks > all

Other things you can use command hooks for. like mounting a router to the wall, headphones at your monitor sides, etc.
