how to hang an oversized mirror?
Make sure of the type of wall you have. Drywall or plaster?
If your mirror already has the hardware , it is safe to hang with that hardware.
Make sure you know the weight of the mirror. There are certain tools and mechanisms you may need to use depending on the weight.
Find your stud in the wall after you decide where you want to hang it.
Accurately measure the area on the wall between the hooks with a piece of tape to know where to drill in the wall.
Use a level to make sure that you have measured properly
Drill your hardware into the stud that you will use to anchor the mirror.
When you have your hardware in the wall, before you hang the mirror put bumpers on the bottom so you wont scratch your wall, and then hang your mirror.
