We try not to  handle absolutes here,  however when it  concerns how high to hang a  imagethe French gallery rods I use, we do have some solid recommendations. We  likewise put the  concern out to our Framebridge  neighborhood and you all had some  exceptional perspectives, too. Here we  respond to all of your inquiries about how high to hang frames.
 The Eyes Have It
 We  recommend hanging your art so that the vertical center (the middle of the frame) is 57″ (inches) above the  flooring, or at your eye-level if it’s in a  corridor or  entranceway where you’re  normally  strolling past it. That  chooses single pieces ( pictures, paintings, posters)this hanging wire  along with  plans like gallery walls. Museums and galleries  utilize this  general rule and if it’s good enough for them, it’s certainly  sufficient for us!
 
 Measure the height of your piece or  plan, divide in half and add that number to the 57″ to mark where the top of your frame  need to be. Check out our  pointers for hanging with a hanging wire, sawtooth  wall mount, or corner brackets (on large pieces) for a perfectly aligned frame

 What if I’m hanging a frame above  furnishings?
 What height to hang frames depends on what’s around them, too. If you’re hanging frames above  furnishings like a  sofa, bed, or desk, we  recommend the bottom of the frame  need to be 7 – 10″ above the top of the  furnishings.

 As far as width goes, whether it’s a single large piece or a full gallery wall, some  state it  must span about 2/3 of the width of the  sofa, headboard,  and so on,  however we think there’s some wiggle room and even  created our Triptych gallery wall in king and queen size to fill  the majority of the width of a headboard or  couch.
 
 How about hanging  images in  spaces with high ceilings?
 We think the same  general rule applies– 57″ off the ground for the vertical center of the piece.  Obviously if there’s room, you can stack more pieces up from there!

 What about hanging gallery walls and  numerous frames?
  Consider a gallery wall or grouping of  numerous frames as one  huge piece. Whether you’re hanging a predesigned gallery wall (ours come with  really  convenient life-size hanging guides which  permit you to  line up the  whole  plan  simultaneously) or are getting  innovative with an eclectic gallery wall of your own, the same  guideline applies– 57″ or eye level to the vertical center.  For instance, when hanging  3 pieces vertically, the center of the middle frame would be at eye level.

 Is the 57″ eye-level  guideline set in stone?
 There are of course exceptions to every  guideline and all of your framed art and  pictures  need to work within your existing space. The  situations are as unique as your style and there are  lots of  methods to hang your art. Have  especially low  furnishings? You  might  require to adjust.  Truly  big artwork? It  might  require to come down a bit.  Usually we see  circumstances of art hung  expensive  instead of too low.
 
 A measuring tape and level are  necessary,  however a  2nd set of eyes is  likewise  really useful to have when  discovering the  best height to hang a  image.
 
 As always if you have any concerns about getting your art up on the wall, our team of designers is happy to address them.
