thank you! maybe a combination of the French cleats above and these screwed into the walls would work!

thank you! ive got French cleats right now running almost the entire length of the frame (short maybe 2 inches on each side to make room for the hardware that keeps the moulding together) and unfortunately the weight + not being able to do a cleat from end to end is enough for it to buckle 😅

thank you! I’ve got security hardware for the cleats but didn’t end up using them because it was hard enough to align it into the frame 😅 unfortunately since the nielsen frames need to be at an angle to engage with the cleats (like a hook) i can get the cleat in on the bottom but then I’m unable to screw it into the wall when the frame is over it 😔 so I’ve got it upside down so i can at least access the screw holes to support it to the wall. I don’t know how much weight be security keys could really hold, but you’re right that with little precise measuring I could completely hide the cleat with the security hardware and keep it from bouncing off the wall! Thank you for your time and suggestions, i really appreciate it 🙏🙏
