Hangman - Professional French Cleat – For Mirrors, Pictures, Ledges, Cabinets & Headboards - Aluminum: CBH-30,Silver.

Always order these when I’m building something heavier than a picture to hang up. Even used them for floating shelves. Very good product

This solved hanging a large mirrored jewelry cabinet on my plaster and homasote wall (yes, in 1930 they put up walls of homasote in my house, covered them with a ton of plaster, and it's a nightmare). I wasn't ever going to risk using the cabinet's keyhole hooks in drywall anchors. My studs can also be all over the place, but the 18 inch one did hit two studs in the far holes. I'm very happy this worked so well.

We bought a mirror off Amazon that is solid, beautiful and HEAVY!Unfortunately the wall I was mounting it on had the stud dead center, instructions say NOT to run a wire from the two hanging brackets so I ordered a French cleat, cut it down to 23 1/2” inches (was a 30” French cleat), drilled a few holes and mounted it using all of the same screws the original brackets the mirror brackets used. Was able to use two construction screws near the center to mount the half of the cleat to the stud in the wall and drywall anchors to support the ends. Now this mirror isn’t going anywhere. Overkill? Maybe. It’s going to hanging over a very expensive pedestal sink in a powder room and I’m not taking any chances.

I cant believe i was considering another method to hang my larger frames.Stuff from the store (at a higher price) felt cheap.This was niceee and solid. Good feel.Thanks!

I used this to re-hang a mirror on our wall the mirror was not secured with a stud and the holes were getting loose. This allowed us to re-hang using an off center stud plus the already drilled holes in the plaster

Used this to hang some "floating" shelves. The shelves needed to be supported on the sides (used chain) they look great, and I know are not going anywhere. It would have worked better with the cabinets - the bottom of the cabinet would help keep it all level. Have also used with hanging headboards, since they are longer, no gap at top - plus sturdy!

Great for use as a headboard attachments!

Note that the instructions insist at least two screws must be put into studs. Without saying so, I believe Hangman is insisting on this to support as much weight as the product claims to support (which I think was 100 pounds for this item). That seems like a fair request.This bracket gives you a very tight fit of your item to your wall. I would definitely call it "flush," as good as if my cabinet was directly screwed to the wall. The challenge that presents is that lifting your item into place and sliding it down so that the Z-channels catch each other has to be carefully and diligently addressed. It is much harder than hanging a picture on the wall with a nail and wire, but the result is well worth it, and I would buy other Hangman products now that I have this first experience.The wall-attached section has pre-drilled holes 1-inch apart across its entire length. Thus it is easy to align the holes with a stud. The cabinet-attached section has holes spaced farther apart, maybe 3 or 4 inches. That worked fine for me.I ordered the 30-inch to hang a cabinet that was 26 inches long, so I had to trim the cabinet-attached side of the hanger with a hacksaw. That was not difficult, and product didn't bend when I clamped it securely to the workbench and made my cut. I trimmed the wall-attached side down to 20 inches, so it spanned two wall studs and a bit more. This gives me the flexibility to slide the cabinet a little to the left or right on the wall without exposing the wall-attached bracket.
