Picture hanging in Mount Dora

Mount Dora is famous for its antique shops, art festival, the Lakeside Inn and Lake Dora's lighthouse. Homes here are full of character — and full of antiques and art that need proper hanging.

Homes and walls in Mount Dora

Historic frame homes with plaster and paneling, cottages, and newer homes on the edges of town.

Plaster and lath walls

Original plaster in Mount Dora's older homes is hard on the surface but brittle underneath, and a hammered nail can crack it. We tape the spot, pre-drill with a carbide bit and use plaster-rated anchors — or picture-rail hooks where the moulding survives.

Drywall walls

Drywall in Mount Dora is usually half-inch board over wood studs in houses and over metal studs in condos and apartments. We locate framing with a scanner for anything heavier than about 20 lb and use toggle or self-drilling anchors between studs, so frames sit flush and stay put.

Concrete block (CBS) walls

Many Mount Dora homes have concrete block walls, often with a thin drywall layer on furring strips. Nails won't hold here. We drill with a hammer drill and masonry bit, then use concrete screws or sleeve anchors — the strongest option for heavy mirrors, TVs and shelves.

Typical jobs we handle in Mount Dora

For Mount Dora's older homes we test every wall before drilling, since one house can mix original plaster, later drywall and paneling.

Lakefront Mount Dora homes get strong light and humidity. We'll suggest placements away from direct sun and add bumpers so air circulates behind frames.
