How to Hang Over the Door Mirror on Wall

Over-the-door mirrors are a great way to add style and functionality to any room. They are easy to install and can be hung on any door, making them a versatile and convenient option. Here are the essential steps on how to hang an over-the-door mirror on a wall:

Materials You'll Need:

Over-the-door mirror
Screw or nail
Screwdriver or hammer

Step 1: Choose the Right Location

The first step is to choose the right location for your over-the-door mirror. Make sure it is a place where you can easily see yourself in the mirror and where it will not obstruct the door's opening or closing.

Step 2: Mark the Hanging Point

Once you have chosen the location, use a pencil to mark the spot on the wall where you want to hang the mirror. The mark should be at the center of the top of the door frame.

Step 3: Install the Screw or Nail

If you are hanging the mirror on a drywall wall, use a screw. If you are hanging it on a plaster wall, use a nail. Drive the screw or nail into the wall at the marked spot.

Step 4: Hang the Mirror

Lift the over-the-door mirror and place the hook on the mirror's back over the screw or nail. Make sure the mirror is level and secure.

Step 5: Enjoy Your New Mirror

Your over-the-door mirror is now installed and ready to use. Enjoy the added style and functionality it brings to your room.

Tips:

If you are hanging a heavy mirror, use two screws or nails instead of one.
To prevent the mirror from swaying, place a piece of felt or rubber between the mirror and the door frame.
Over-the-door mirrors can also be hung on the back of a door, if desired.
