Directions
Clearly mark the area where the top border of the rug will stay and the points where you are going to screw the wall clips. If your rug is heavy find the underlying studs and position the wall clips over that area. Remove the paper cover from the underlying double-sided tape under the clips and place and press the clip on the marked position. It will stay there because of the sticking of the double-sided tape. Now take the provided screws and screw it in the given holes. There are two holes on each clip for the screws but if the rug is light weight, you can use one hole. You should be careful while engaging the rug in the teeth. While engaging, if all the load of the heavy rug stayed on one clip for some time it will either damage the rug or clip, so be quick in engaging or keep the rug hold with hands or on some support.
Why the clips get deform?
The rug hanging clips are deformed because of the following reasons
1) Neglecting the weight to clip ratio.
2) At the time of hanging and removing the rugs from the arm when you leave more load on few clips. A good solution of this problem is, roll the rug over the arm half and half, then attach the clips on the desired locations and then roll it back gently until the clips get closer to the arm and then engage it on the arm quickly.
How many clips do I need to hang a rug?
It depends upon the weight and size of the rug.
A 12x18 feet rug generally weigh around 50 pounds. A rug of this size needs 4 heavy-duty clips to hang on an arm. For standard sized rugs, a general formula is, for every 50 square feet, you need one heavy duty clip.
For shag rugs that are pretty thick and heavy weight, you need extra heavy duty clips that have wide opening to engage the thick rugs and designed to bear a heavy load. If you are using extra heavy duty clips the 50 square feet to one clips formula stands well. Extra heavy duty clips are designed differently, and they are more resistant to distort. If you are trying to hang shag rugs with the standard rug clips, the formula is 40 square feet to one clip. The more the number of clips the less is the chance of their deformity.
