Command Strips FAQs
1. How do Command strips work?
Command strips are thin strips coated with a specially developed adhesive. When applied to a surface the strips can hold up to 3kg's*. When it's time to remove the strip, you simply pull the tab, which stretches the adhesive strip and it comes cleanly away from the wall. Command strips are available with a range of attachments from designer metal hooks for hanging coats to mini hooks for hanging keys or decorations.
