Hold the rug in place according to the pencil marks on the wall and hammer or push in the upholstery nails across the top of the rug.
How to hang a rug on the wall with nails.
Every rug in the shop is hung with the strips.
They should also never be hung by nailing or pinning them to the wall.
Slide your rod through the casing on the rug and hang the rod on the wall.
Rugs should never be hung directly above or very near a heat source such as a heat vent or fireplace.
Be careful not to stretch as you put in the nails or the rug will not appear square on the wall.
Once you have got your exact placement and the top placement is level hammer nails in the tack strip to attach it to the wall.
The plain nails are purely for functional purposes.
I started in the center and worked out.
Lift the rug against the top tack strip and press it firmly against the strip.
Nail the rug to the tack strip.
Use two upholstery nails to secure each corner of the rug and then use a third nail to secure the middle.
When holding up the twine it should form a triangle with the pipe and rug at the bottom.
Fold half of the rug over the pipe so that the rug is draping down on both sides.
These strips are made for pulling a carpet to the outer edge of the room to hold it from shifting.
Tie the loose ends of the twine together outside of the pipe.
Hang the rug via the twine on a nail or stud on your wall.
Nail through the rug and into the mounted tack strip.
The easiest way to do this is to hammer the two top corners of the rug and then place one nail in the middle.
Measure and prepare your wall for hanging the rod by measuring the width of your rug and where you want the rod to fall.
If you want a more casual look hammer the corners about one inch from the end so they hang slightly downward.
They come with a series of upturned short nails on the front side that grab the rug and hold it in place and longer nails on the backside that go into the wall.
The length of this top tack strip should be the exact measure of the top edge of the rug.
Hang the rod anchors to the wall using a drill and screws.
