Tired of measuring for keyhole slots, making multiple surface marks, and still having objects that are crooked or will not mount? The Keyhole Companion solves this by attaching to keyhole slots and marking where the fasteners need to go on the surface. No measuring, generating templates or guessing.

Keyhole Marking Tool
“If you’ve struggled to hang picture frames or other wall-mounted décor with keyhole hardware, this Accu Mount Keyhole Slot Marking Tool Set is just what you need. It quickly installs on the piece you want to hang, and when you press it against the wall, a small mark is made in the exact location you need to place the screw. There are lots of hacks out there that will allow you to do the same thing but if you want an easy way to make these marks grab one of these keyhole markers online….”

To ensure the Keyhole Companion works with the widest range of keyhole slots and hardware, three built-in interchangeable interfaces are included. Simply select the interface that matches the slot type, and screw it into the center post.
Any TIPS when using the Keyhole Companion?
1) Choose the correct interface for the slot type.
2) Push the product to the end of the slot while tightening.
3) Product needs to be perpendicular to the surface when tightened (if tilted, spacers can be used to make it perpendicular).
For KEYHOLE SLOTS ON A SMALL RAISED SURFACE (like a pedestal) the tool tilts when tightened. How do I prevent that?
An adapter can be made using a 7/8” diameter or larger fender washer with #6 or 5/32” or larger center hole (available at hardware stores). Simply unscrew the flat interface, put it through the washer, and re-install the interface with the washer.
Using FLAT NARROW ADD-ON KEYHOLE SLOT hardware, the Keyhole Companion tilts when tightened. How do I prevent that?
An adapter can be made by placing a spacer (like a wood coffee stirrer) adjacent to each long side of the hardware. The Keyhole Companion will then rest on the spacers and tighten perpendicular to the object surface.
Using FLAT ROUND ADD-ON KEYHOLE SLOT hardware, the Keyhole Companion tilts when tightened. How do I prevent that?
• For surface mounted, a spacer will typically be needed under one end of the Keyhole Companion in order to have it tighten perpendicular.
• For recessed, two spacers may be needed, one of them long enough to fully bridge the recess diameter.
What do I do if there’s NOT ENOUGH GRIP-RANGE (interface extension) to mount the Keyhole Companion in the keyhole slot?
Insufficient grip-range (interface extension) can occur if the keyhole slot material is too thick, if a recess is cut too deep, or as a result of the use of spacers. The remedy is to partially unscrew the interface to increase the product grip range.
FEATURES & BENEFITS ** The only keyhole slot marking tool with a recessed marker – leaves no unwanted marks while positioning an object in contact with the surface ** No measuring or templates needed to mount items with keyhole slots ** Spring-loaded tools hold in place while tightening ** Self-inking marker ** Long-lasting ink (now 5 years) will make more than 1000 very visible marks ** Storage rack holds all components in one place ** Professional quality with metal internal components
WORKS WITH KEYHOLE SLOTS and SAWTOOTH HANGERS – Using the included interfaces, the hanging tools work on all keyhole slot materials and most keyhole slot and sawtooth bracket configurations, including for keyhole molded-in (plastic), cut-in (wood, plastic or metal), add-on hardware (surface mounted or recessed). Accommodates thicknesses from thin metal to 3/8″. [See website FAQ for any keyhole slot configuration that creates difficulty].
MARKS VIRTUALLY ANY SURFACE – Comes with non-drying (confirmed so far 5 years) black and white ink to mark both light and dark surfaces. The caps store ample long-lasting ink for more than 1000 uses. Works on hard, soft, smooth, and rough/textured surfaces. Ink marks can be removed with a Magic Eraser or denatured alcohol.
RECESSED, SELF-INKING MARKER – When the tools are mounted, ink is automatically transferred from the ink reservoir in the snap-on cap to the marking pad. The recessed marking pad is a unique design feature that ensures the surface remains free of unwanted marks while positioning the object. The only mark on the surface is the fastener location mark that comes from the push-to-mark action.
BUILT-TO-LAST: Commercial-grade Design using Metal Internal Components – Use for many years on any keyhole slot-enabled objects including Power strips, Surge protector, Floating shelves, Picture hanging (including on slanted walls), Corbels, Small parts organizer, Network switch, Power tool battery chargers, DIY keyhole router bits, Add-on keyhole slot hardware, etc. WARRANTY: 1 year

Awesome Tool
Honestly, this thing exceeded my expectations. It was one of those items that I didnât really need, but I bought it anyway. I use it all the time now. So simple to use and perfect results every time. It would also make a great stocking stuffer or gift for a new home owner!

Handy tool for hanging or mounting
This is a very handy, easy to use tool for hanging and mouting a variety of objects. — Surge protector strips, clocks, picture frames, lighting, garage organizer systems, and much more.

Alright
Bought after seeing an ad. Seems nifty, but still ends up being kinda clunky when hanging some items.
Chad Chowning –
This will save you accumulative hours of guesswork.
The product idea/concept is awesome, the product worked great for the most part. The only problem I had with it is that one of the springs started acting wonky (it kept getting stuck and wouldnât come out far enough to stamp the wall) after the 5th painting/picture. But other than that itâs a must have for every manâs tool box that has a woman in their life that continuously rearranges their home or if theyâre the guy that gets called to help hold things on a wall until they decide if they like it there or not.

Great product
Great product. Works good and makes hanging pictures easy.

Good for small frames
Works nice if you have a picture you donât need two people to hang. Pictures would normally need an extra hand with itâs not as useful.

A great stocking stuffer
Picture this: you’re a handy person who loves nothing more than hanging things around the house. Power strips, pictures, you name it â if it can be hung, you’re all over it. But there’s just one small problem… your aim isn’t exactly what one would call “precise.”Enter the Keyhole Companion Marking Tool Set! This nifty little tool is designed to help you mark the perfect spot for your keyhole slot fasteners, ensuring that your hangings are straight, level, and exactly where you want them.But be warned, my fellow handy-people: with great power comes great responsibility. And by “responsibility,” I mean the potential for your wife to question your sanity when she discovers yet another hole in the wall.”Honey, I thought we talked about this,” she’ll say, exasperation evident in her voice. “Why are there so many holes in the wall? It looks like we’ve been under attack by a gang of miniature drill-wielding maniacs!”You’ll try to explain that it’s all part of the process, that the Keyhole Companion Marking Tool Set is just helping you achieve hanging perfection. But she’ll just shake her head and mutter something about “men and their toys.”So, if you’re ready to take your hanging game to the next level (and potentially endure a few eye rolls from your significant other), then the Keyhole Companion Marking Tool Set is the tool for you! Just remember: with every perfectly marked keyhole slot, there’s a chance you’ll be sleeping on the couch tonight.Happy hanging!
