proton pack display question

for everyone that hangs their proton packs on the wall…what do you all use? I’d prefer to get something that holds onto the alice frame, makes more sense to me. But if you have better ideas, share them. :cool:

My back.

Hooks I’d guess… big ones.

i went to lowes and bought a coat rack that screws to your wall. All i did was take off the first and last hook (which left me the middle two) and hung my pack on it. it looks great and blends perfectly with my wall.

I bought a wheelbarrow wall holder from Home Depot…

…and used the hook part to hold the top of the alice frame…

Works well!

wheel barrow wall holder huh? I never thought of that. I’ll have to go check them out when I get the chance.

It goes without saying, but make sure you are bolting the bracket/holder into a stud in the wall, and not just “the wall”.

Absolutely.

If you have to go into drywall, use drywall anchors.

yeah, drywall anchors fell out of my wall! almost busted my pack the day before haloween this past year! anyhow, i got these big utillity hangers from home depot. i can’t find a link to them online, as i’ve tried several times because this subject keeps coming up. the hangers are with the ratchet straps, ropes, bungee cords and such, and come in a black and orange package. if i still had the packaging i’d post a pic, but that stuff is long gone. just look around and you’ll see 'em.

Hanging packs from walls sounds risky…especially considering how much money and effort goes into these things. I’ll be using a guitar stand!

Well i used a bracket thats perfect as you can hang it from the alice frame its very very sturdy and ive had no problems. By the way Ghostnerd Pm sent.

Its just a bracket i found in a local d.i,.y shop there is no name on the packet.
