How to Hang a Group of Frameless Mirrors Without Nails
- 1). Dust the area on the wall where you want to adhere the frameless mirrors. Wash the wall with an all-purpose cleaner and a cleaning cloth if it has greasy or dirty residue. The residue will prevent the mounting from adhering correctly. Allow the wall to dry.
- 2). Clean the back of each frameless mirror with a glass or window cleaner and wipe it off with a dry cloth. The mounting tape must stick well to both surfaces.
- 3). Trace the shapes of the frameless mirrors onto a large piece of butcher paper with a sharpened pencil.
- 4). Add arrows on the paper with the pencil if necessary to indicate the vertical or horizontal placement of each mirror.
- 5). Cut out the shapes with a pair of scissors.
- 6). Position the papers on the wall with painter's tape, which should not strip off the wall paint once you remove it. Arrange the papers until you find an arrangement you like.
- 7). Go to the entrance of the room or walk a few feet away from the wall. Inspect the papers to determine if you need to lower, raise or move them in any way.
- 8). Mark the top, bottom and sides of each paper on the wall with a tiny pencil mark. Erase the marks later if necessary.
- 9). Lay the double-sided mounting tape against the back of one mirror to determine the length. Cut the tape with a pair of sharp scissors. Keep the backing on the tape while cutting it.

Peel off the backing from the mounting tape that is in place on the mirror. - 15
Press the mirror firmly into place; take care not to press so hard that you crack or otherwise damage the mirror. The tape is pressure sensitive. Press on all areas that contain the tape to ensure it adheres to the surface. - 16
Repeat cutting the mounting tape, peeling off the backing and pressing it into place with each mirror.
