Learn what a stud finder is and how it’s used. Read our blog or keep watching to find out how to find studs without a stud finder: http://bit.ly/39OdAiq

Stud finders help you find studs to hang items from. They work by sending signals through drywall to detect something solid behind it (i.e. a wall stud). In modern construction, once you find the middle of one stud, you can measure 16 inches over from it to find the others.

FUN FACT:

Find a stud without a stud finder by removing an outlet cover plate to see which side of the outlet box is secured to the stud.
