Hanging clock

[Ninko]

Hi,
I would like to hang a clock above my bathroom door, but I don't want to have to drill into the tiles so I thought I could attach something to the ceiling above that would allow me to bring a hook down from it against the wall which would allow me to hang the clock from that. Does that make sense?

Anyway, does anyone know the best thing to use for that or am I just looking at hooks and string?

Thanks

Ninko

Why don't you drill the tile with a drill bit http://www.toolstation.com/search?searchstr=tile+bit

@HawkEye244, I can't damage the tiles as I live in a rented property.

@handyjack, That wouldn't work, see picture of the back of clock.

Thanks

A very very small splodge of gripfill will hold the clock on the wall, just enough for you to take it off again if you want. Splodge can be scraped back to the tile without leaving any scuff marks if you are careful.

Self adhesive velcro strips?

Put two strips on the tile vertically, then put two strips on the back of the clock horizontally (noughts & crosses board style). This way the velcro won't mate too well and should ensure the velcro separates properly, rather than the glue failing when you take the clock down.

Get some of those hooks that you glue on to the wall

Why do you want a clock in the bathroom?

You need to get to B&Q and ask them to show you where the skyhooks are.

Or, failing that. get a proper bathroom clock with suckers (no offence Stooges) on the back to attach to a tiled surface.

If the grout lines are fairly wide , drill into the grout, not the tiles.
