Can you hang a heavy mirror on plasterboard?

Yes — with the right anchors. We carry toggle bolts rated to 30kg+ each and find studs where possible.

How do you avoid drilling into wires?

We use a stud-and-services finder before drilling and follow standard wiring layout assumptions.

Bondi Beach context

What picture & mirror hanging looks like in Bondi Beach

Beachfront Bondi Beach flats are mostly 1960s and '70s solid-brick external walls and thinner internal partitions; we adapt the fixing to whichever wall the picture is going against. Salt-air ingress means picture-frame backing wires corrode if standard zinc — stainless wire is worth the upgrade for any frame near an ocean-facing window. We hang fast on Airbnb turnarounds: standard kit, photographed before-and-after for the host, completed within the cleaner's window.

Recent: full restyle on a Notts Avenue Airbnb — twelve frames hung between guests. Mix of brick (lounge wall) and plasterboard (bedroom). Stainless picture wire fitted to all frames within 5m of the balcony door. Two-and-a-half-hour visit, host's photographer arrived as we left.

Our process — same standard, every booking

1
Plan layout
Painter's tape mock-up first for gallery walls; we don't drill until you approve.
2
Anchor for the load
Heavy mirrors get toggle bolts or chemical anchors, not picture hooks.
3
Level and align
Laser-levelled across the wall — perfectly straight.
