I originally used these brick clips to put Christmas stockings over the fireplace. Then I found they were just the ticket to mount all kinds of stuff. I've used to mount small loudspeakers, decorating wall hangings, houseplants. No drilling, no holes. Perfect for apartment dwellers with exposed brick or, like me, folks with living rooms with dramatic brick fireplaces.

Use is pretty simple you push the top of the clip down on the top of a brick flattening out the leaf spring then tuck the toothed grippy bottom under the brick. If your bricks are over sized or irregular it will not work but if you have normal sized regular bricks it works fine. The clip has two die cut tabs of metal sticking out on which to hang stuff. For mounting speakers I attached a piece of wood to the clip with bailing wire and the drilled the speaker mount into the wood.

I bought a house a few years ago that was built in the 50's. It has a wonderful 3 sided fireplace between the living room and dining room and the front wall is made of brick as well. Since the house (and mortar and brick) are so old, drilling and screwing were out of the question since it would probably crumble. I found these brick clips doing an internet search and they've been wonderful! I use them outside to hang my decorations and inside they are on all 3 sides of the fireplace. They hold up everything from message boards to pictures. I even have 1 holding up my sword. I am planning on getting more soon so I can use them for the rest of my decorations outside. I've already been through my first dozen.

For those that are unsure of what to do with the screw driver; line up the bottom of your brick clip. Use a flat head screw driver like a pry bar between the clip and the brick beneath it to compress the "spring" while you slide the teeth over the top of the brick. Remove the screw driver and you're done.

If you are still having difficulty, make sure that you bought the right size brick clips. there are 3 sizes:

Standard fits bricks measuring 2 1/8" to 2 1/2" in height

Queen fits bricks measuring 2 1/2" to 2 3/4" in height

Max fits bricks measuring 3" to 3 1/4" in height

This was a hard to find item that really works well. It allow you to hang an item from a brick wall without having to drill into the brick or grout. You do have to use a screwdriver to bend the bottom part to fit (which is explained in the enclosed instructions), but it is easy to hang and it does hold things well and secure. I have two heavy items hanging from the two clips I bought and they work excellent. Very pleased with product.

If you are buying these because the product description says they can hold 25 lbs, STOP. They hold about 5 pounds before the clips break off. This happened three times for me. That was a big disappointment because it's no easy trick to clip these to the brick, NOR to remove them once they're snug!

I inherited some brick clips with the home I recently purchased. They are a great invention and I am trying to buy some more of them. I have an entire brick wall around my fireplace and you can hang anything with them. They make NO holes in the wall. Much to my surprise it is not easy to find these brick clips and I would LOVE to be able to purchase some more. I am using the 3 I have, 2 outside on the porch to hang wrought iron, and one on my fireplace wall to hang a painting.
