How do you secure a wall clock?

How do you hang a clock on the wall and secure it so it doesn't fall off from the jouncing as you travel? What has worked for you?

Ditto, works well, and is easy to remove to change the battery.

A 3M Command Hook for the slot in the back of the clock, and a small "blob" of Fun Tac on the bottom to keep it from rocking while moving. Can't permanently mount it since the battery compartment & setting controls are on the back.

Drill 2- 2" holes through the clock and the wall. Get some 3/4 in chain put it through the clock and wall and weld it. Problem solved. Or you can look at your wrist.

I take it off the wall and put it on the bed when traveling. When camped, it goes back on the wall... ๐Ÿ™‚

Good luck!

Screw-in wall anchors. I drilled two holes in the frame of the clock and use long screws thru the frame and into the anchors.

We used heavy duty self adhesive Velcro. Works. Also use it for other applications too.

Our last TT, a Wildcat, used a screw and a piece of Velcro as others have deescribed.
Our new AF hangs from one screw and flops all over the place when moving.

Museum putty or just get a clock kit and build one into a cabinet door.

This, ours has a small piece of Velcro just below the screw, never has come down, yet.

I used 3M industrial hook and loop (Velcro) to attach our "atomic" clock. It's been in place since 2013 so far, only being removed for battery replacements.
