Traditional wall hooks are useful, but they have a problem. You cannot use them on materials or surfaces that are not thick enough. This is because you usually have to drill them far into the surface you want to attach them to. Of course, this means you can't use them on fragile or thin materials, limiting their use.
However, these adhesive base wall hooks have an advantage in this regard. How? They do not require any drilling. Instead, they rely on the strong adhesion of the base. This means you can use them on almost any surface and almost any material , including fragile materials like drywall and plaster walls.
