  1. Select a location on the siding to locate the plant hanger, for example, one on either side of a doorway. Hold the plant hanger against the siding in the desired location.

  2. Press the point of an awl into the center of each mounting hole on the hanger and into the siding material to mark it.

  3. Insert a pilot bit that is slightly smaller than the included screw shank diameter into a drill. Drill a hole approximately the length of the screws into each awl-marked spot on the siding.

  4. Align the mounting holes in the hanger with the pilot holes and drive the included screws through the mounting holes into the siding to fasten the hanger securely to the exterior of your home.

Tips

Match the finish on your hangers with the hardware on the exterior of your home.

Warnings
