There are plenty of overseas products that I wish were available here but, being such a small market, it is what it is. Command Hooks are one of those products I wish for and now a select range of these self-adhesive hanging and storage products are available at Builders.
Command hooks are lauded for their superior stickability and the amazing range of products they cover. From small transparent hooks to hooks that can hold a heavy weight. When you hang something on a hook you want to know it is going to stay there! The problem with so many locally available alternatives is that they suck at sticking and if they do stick and not later on fall off, when you try to remove them from the wall for whatever reason, they also remove coats of paint or even the plaster.
If you don't know what Command Hooks are, here is a bit more information for you, as well as ideas and inspiration for uses in the home.
Use Command Hooks to organise a Kitchen
Because Command Hooks have a strong self-adhesive backing they can be used anywhere in the home - even outdoors. These hooks let you organise any space with hanging solutions that suit your needs. Command Hooks won't damage your walls in the process and are strong enough to hang almost anything - depending on the type of Command Hook you purchase.
There are plenty of uses for Command Hooks in a kitchen, from organising kitchen utensils to providing storage in areas that are unused. With Command Hooks, you can hang kitchen utensils and accessories right where you need them - on walls, doors, or tiles.
Command Hooks are a great way to organise all your cleaning supplies, whether on the wall, on the back of a door, or in a cupboard. There are different types of Command Hooks to choose from at Builders, giving you a choice of storage and hanging solutions you can purchase.
Shown below is the Command Broom Gripper that lets you hang floor cleaners, sweeping brushes, or anything with a handle that needs a place to be stored.
In a laundry, Command Hooks are just as versatile and you can use them to free up floor or countertop space to hang items on walls or doors.
A broom cupboard or utility space is easily organised using assorted Command Hooks. If you do not have a dedicated cupboard, you can just as easily mount items onto the back of a door.
Think how easy it would be to organise a pantry or cupboard with Command Hooks and with so many types and sizes available, you can hang almost anything - anywhere!
Use Command Hooks to organise an Entrance
Another area where Command Hooks makes storage easier is at the entrance to a home, by the back door, or in a utility or mud room. Sort all your pets' accessories and essentials, have a place to hang coats or hats, leave your shopping bags at the door.
With Command Hooks, the kids will have a convenient place to hang their school bags and school clothing and not just drop them on the floor!
Put your DIY skills to use by making decorative wall hangings that incorporate Command Hooks. You can create personalised hangings for a particular room such as a hobby or craft room, home office or studio, or a family room or den.
Use Command Hooks combined with your basic DIY skills to make custom storage accessories for your home. Get onto the Builders website to see what Command products are in stock at your nearest store.
Use Command Hooks to organise a Bathroom
Bathrooms are notorious for being short on storage and you probably do not want to go through the hassle of drilling into tiles, particularly with the possibility of damaging pipes in the wall or cracking expensive tiles. Command Hooks have a self-adhesive back that lets you stick them almost anywhere, including wet bathrooms.
Use Command Hooks for towels and you can install them lower for young children, or use them to have a convenient location for bath or shower essentials. You don't need to worry about the hooks falling off the wall - these hooks are designed to stick strong.
Why not install a Command Hook next to your shower so that the towel is at hand when you are done?
Command hooks in the shower or on the tiles next to a bathtub are great for all your grooming essentials and you can use heavy-duty double-sided tape to secure plastic caddies onto the wall for shower gel, bath bombs, or other bathing goodies.
Use Command Hooks to organise a Bedroom
Of all the rooms in a home that need storage solutions, a child's bedroom probably needs it the most. They need a place to hang their hoodies, coats and caps, a convenient spot for their school bags and organised storage for school supplies. Being able to mount hooks on walls and doors, or even the footboard of a bed, will free up valuable floor space for play time after homework is done.
In a teen girl's bedroom, it is all about decor. The room just has to look good and she needs to be able to add personal touches to the room. Think strings of fairy lights on a bare wall with her favourite pegged images, all of which are easy to do with transparent Command Hooks.
No place to hang your jewellery or fashion accessories? No problem with Command Hooks since they come in assorted sizes and you can mount them anywhere. If you do not have a dressing table or makeup station, you can stick Command Hooks onto a convenient wall or mount them inside a BIC door.
Command Hooks are the perfect solution for organising your fashion accessories and small items such as scarves, belts, caps, and so much more.
With Command Hooks decorating a nursery or toddler's bedroom is easy and you can install the hooks where you want them. Great for wall hangings or decor - hang them on the wall above the cot or bed but do make sure that they are out of reach. Have handy hooks for bags next to the changing station filled with all the cleaning or playing essentials you need every day.
Use Command Hooks to organise a Lounge or Family Room

Safely hanging pictures, artwork, or mirrors onto a wall is no problem with Command Hooks and there are a range of picture mounting hooks to choose from. DO give the wall a light sanding and wipe clean before installing the self-adhesive hooks and they will stay stuck forever. If you ever need to remove the hooks for any reason, pop on the command.com website for instructions on how to Apply and Remove Command Hooks.
Now here is something I definitely need for my home, both indoors and in the garden. You can use transparent Command Hooks to train climbers and creepers up the walls. Love this idea!
