Hercules Hook Product Review

Tools & Hardware, Video by Danny Lipford

The Hercules Hook claims that it:

  • Is easily installed without tools.
  • Leaves a small hole in the wall.
  • Will support up to 150 pounds.

While the Hercules Hook was easy to install in drywall with only hand pressure and left only a small 1/16” diameter hole in the wall, it supported less than 50 pounds in our test before pulling out of the wall. Since most pictures weigh less than 20 pounds, the Hercules Hook would work well in many situations, but don’t rely on it for very supporting heavy objects.
