Diplomas, degrees, and professional certificates hung level and secure. Single frames or multiple qualification displays. Properly shown off, not wonky or falling down.
### Your Achievement Deserves Better Than a Nail and Hope
You spent **years earning that qualification**. Then you spent £30 getting it professionally framed. Now it's been leaning against the wall for 6 months because you're worried about getting it wonky or making holes in the wrong place.
Or worse, you did hang it, and it's visibly not level. Every time you look at it, you notice. Every client who visits notices. It's maddening.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Certificates and diplomas work best hung slightly above eye level when standing. Too low feels apologetic. Too high feels boastful. There's a sweet spot.

Good to Know
> 🏢 **Professional office?** First impressions matter. Wonky certificates or frames propped on filing cabinets look unprofessional. Get them hung properly - shows attention to detail. **Grouping frames:** Multiple certificates look better in consistent frames with symmetrical spacing. Common layouts: horizontal line (3-5 frames), vertical stack (2-3 frames), or grid pattern (6+ frames). **Diploma vs degree:** Same service regardless of what the qualification is. BSc, MSc, PhD, professional certs, apprenticeships, trade qualifications - all treated with equal respect and hung properly. **While I'm there:** Other frames needing hanging? Photos, prints, mirrors? I'll do them all in the same visit for the same callout.
Frequently Asked Questions about Diploma frame hanging in Sidmouth
Why not just use a nail and hang it myself?
You absolutely can. But diplomas and certificates are things you're proud of - worth displaying properly. Perfectly level, at the right height, securely fixed so they don't fall off and smash. First impressions matter, especially in offices.
What if I've got multiple certificates to hang - can you do them all?
Yes - that's common for offices. Medical practices with 5 qualifications each, accountants with professional certifications, academics with degrees and awards. I'll arrange them properly spaced and level with each other.
My office wall is plasterboard - will the frame be secure?
Yes - I use proper plasterboard fixings, not just nails. Heavy frames get proper anchors. Your diploma isn't falling off the wall and smashing during a client meeting.
Can you hang them at a specific height or spacing?
Of course - you might want them at eye level in a home office, or higher in a commercial reception area. Multiple certificates need consistent spacing. I'll follow your layout or suggest what looks professional.
I haven't framed my diploma yet - can you help with that too?
I can hang pre-framed certificates. If you need framing done, there are good framers in Sidmouth I can recommend. Once framed, I'll hang it properly for you.
