Would masonry nails be enough to hold a picture rail in place on the wall?

There'll be nothing hanging on it

1. Yes, but I like using plugs and screws in case you want to remove them after.
2. Dont do that either screw in with plasplugs of course or Tack it into place and use Pink Grip adhesive. Tacking is good while you double check your alignment.
3. When handing anything on the wall always think about the weight that is going up there.Best go to Lowe's and check out the different types of hanging devices.
4. Yes it will but there is a chance the you might damage the picture rail by hamming the the nail into the wall.I would suggest you use screws and plugs its far more neater.
5. masonary nails are fine, but make sure they are at least 75mm long. that way yo know they are getting a proper fixing, and it saves all the mess
6. The best way is to use spirit based NoNail it is made for jobs such as this & comes with full instructions
