3′ Screw Hooks Open

, are small hardware items used for hanging lightweight objects such as keys, utensils, small plants, or decorations. They consist of a single metal hook with a threaded screw on one end.

1. Selecting the appropriate size: Screw hooks come in various sizes, typically ranging from around 5/8 inch to several inches in length. The size you choose depends on the weight of the item you intend to hang and the thickness of the material you are screwing into.
2. Preparation: Determine the location where you want to install the screw hook and mark the spot. If necessary, use a drill to create a pilot hole slightly smaller than the diameter of the screw hook. This can make it easier to screw the hook in and prevent splitting of the material.
3. Screwing in the hook: Hold the screw hook by the threaded end and align it with the pilot hole or the surface where you want to install it. Begin twisting the hook clockwise into the material using your fingers. As it gets deeper into the material, you may need to use a screwdriver or pliers to provide additional leverage and tighten it securely.
