How do you hook up drywall hooks to drywall?
Push the long, tapered end of the hook through your drywall. Line the hook up with your mark and press it firmly into the wall. The entire wire except for the little hook on the end should go into the wall. Twist the wire so that the hook is facing up.

Framing at inside corners is often inadequate or lacking altogether, making it impossible to fasten the edge of the drywall (left). The solution is to inspect the framing before you start hanging drywall.
How do you hang a sheet of drywall without drilling?
Hanging that top course of drywall is challenging when youre alone. Make the job easier by creating a simple bracket between 1 and 2 ft. from each end of the sheet with a couple of 16d nails. Just sink them into the studs 48-1/2 in. down from the ceiling and about 1 in. deep. Hoist the sheet and rest the bottom edge on the nails.
What is the best way to carry drywall?
Here’s the next best thing to having somebody carry the drywall for you: a heavy-duty panel roller that carries up to two sheets at a time (or anything else that’s flat and heavy). Roll drywall almost effortlessly through the house, using one hand to control the roller and the other to balance the sheet and steer around corners.
How do you hang things on drywall with wire hooks?
Press-in wire hooks are designed to be inserted into drywall without hammers or any other tools. These wire hooks are sometimes known by their brand names, like Monkey hooks or Gorilla hooks. Determine where on your wall you want to hang your object. Make a small pencil mark where you will insert the hook.
What do you use to support a hook on the wall?
Get wall anchors for your screws. Wall anchors look like hollow screws and are used in concrete, masonry, or drywall when you don’t have a stud to support your hook. Look for a wall anchor meant to support the weight of the object you’re hanging and made for the material your wall is made from.
How do you drill a hole in a wall with a hook?
Drill a hole into your wall slightly smaller than the screw your hook came with. Change your drill bit so it’s slightly smaller than the threaded part of your screw. Place the end of your drill on the mark you made on your wall and start running the drill slowly to start your hole.
How do you nail a hook to a wall?
If the hook uses nails, slide the end of the nail through the hole and place the end of the nail against the mark you drew on the wall.

Should drywall sheets be attached vertically or horizontally?
As to the direction of the sheets, most drywall specs Ive read (and written) require that the long dimension of the sheet be applied perpendicular to the framing. Thus for walls it would dictate that the sheets be attached horizontally rather than vertically. Personally, I dont see why it would make much difference.
