How to Install Metal Print: A Complete Guide

Hanging your metal print takes just a few minutes. This guide walks you through a simple, 7-step process using our magnetic mounting system: an adhesive wall receiver and two strong magnets that connect to the metal plate on the back of your print.

Attach the adhesive wall receiver to a clean, smooth wall and wait 10 minutes. Place the magnets on the metal backing plate of your print, then align it with the receiver until it snaps into place. No tools required - installation takes under 5 minutes.

Important: For a secure hold, install only on smooth, clean walls. Avoid textured finishes and delicate wallpaper. If you're unsure, test the receiver on a small, hidden area first.

How to Install Your Metal Print - Step by Step

1

Choose & Prepare the Wall

  • Choose a perfectly smooth area on the wall.
  • Make sure it's free from dust, grease, cracks, or loose paint.
2

Clean & Dry the Surface

  • Wipe the selected area with a clean cloth to remove dust and dirt.
  • Wait until the surface is completely dry before moving on.
3

Attach the Wall Sticker (Magnetic Receiver)

  • Carefully peel off the backing from the adhesive sticker.
  • Press it firmly onto the wall.
  • Wait at least 10 minutes before hanging your print.
4

Prepare the Print

  • Place the two magnets onto the clean metal plate on the back of your print.
5

Hang & Level Your Print

  • Hold the print close to the wall and let the magnets snap towards the receiver.
  • Gently slide the print left or right until it is perfectly level.
6

Check & Enjoy

  • Lightly tug the print to be sure it feels stable and secure.
  • Step back, make any final adjustments, and enjoy your new decoration.
7

⚠️ Safe Removal

  • To remove the print, gently slide it downward until the magnets release. Then pull it away from the wall.
  • Never pull the print directly toward you — this protects both the mounting system and your wall.
  • We recommend mounting on smooth, stable surfaces only.
  • The print "floats" gently against the wall — the system allows easy removal or levelling at any time.

Follow these six steps for a quick, clean installation - no tools, no mess, just a beautifully floating metal print.

Frequently Asked Questions About Metal Print Installation

No, the adhesive receiver requires a smooth, clean surface for secure attachment. Textured walls, delicate wallpaper, and uneven surfaces will not provide adequate adhesion. Always test on a hidden area first.

Our magnetic mounting system securely holds metal prints up to 2kg (4.4 lbs). All standard sizes (The Keepsake 13×9cm, The Classic 30×20cm, and The Statement 42×30cm) are well within this limit.

Simply lift the metal print away from the wall - the magnets will release easily. To remove the adhesive receiver, slowly peel from one corner using dental floss or a thin card to break the adhesive bond.

Yes! One of the best features of our magnetic system is repositionability. Once the wall receiver is attached, you can remove and rehang your print unlimited times, or even swap different prints on the same receiver.

The magnetic mounting system works best on smooth, flat surfaces such as painted plaster, drywall, glass, tiles, and smooth wood panels. Avoid textured walls, rough brick, porous concrete, and delicate wallpaper. The surface should be clean, dry, and free from dust or grease for the adhesive receiver to bond securely.
