Update: Hanging a heavy mirror alone went better with a simple brace

I used a temporary wood support to hold it in place while securing the clips. What's your go-to method for solo mirror installs?

Nice! Your brace idea is smart. I see this everywhere now, the simple fix beating the complicated one. Like using a rolled towel as a doorstop instead of buying some plastic thing. Or shimming a wobbly table with a matchbook. We overthink stuff when the answer is usually right there.

Totally! I used to overengineer every solution, but seeing simple fixes WORK changed my whole view.

My old chair wobbled for months until I stuck a paperback under one leg.
