Vinyl wall mount

How to hang vinyl records on a wall?

Hanging vinyl records on the wall is an excellent way to enhance your interior decor (much like plate stands). Whether to showcase your most beautiful vinyl records or to display iconic album covers, wall display adds a touch that is both vintage and contemporary to a living room, bedroom, office, or even around the turntable. For music lovers and design enthusiasts alike, arranging several vinyl records in a row or cluster creates a true gallery effect on your walls.

Here are some ways to hang vinyl records on the wall:

• Use a wall-mounted vinyl record holder with a hook (discreet, solid, and won't damage the record)
• Place vinyl records on a floating wall shelf or a classic piece of furniture
• Frame the covers in a wall-mounted vinyl record frame
• Opt for a magnetic wall display system
• Glue vinyl records directly to the wall (not recommended: insecure and potentially damaging)

At La Bulle, we offer a wall-mounted vinyl record holder designed to display both the record and its cover, in a simple, aesthetic, and secure way. It's an ideal solution for showcasing your favorite albums while ensuring excellent long-term stability.

3. Ensure the vinyl record is securely held, without any play or movement.
4. Position a small nail or hook at the desired location on your wall.
5. Gently hang the wall mount onto the nail or hook.

Why use a wall-mounted vinyl record holder?

Among all the available options for displaying vinyl records, the wall-mounted vinyl record holder with a hook stands out as the most sophisticated solution. It offers a clean, elegant, and floating visual effect, showcasing each vinyl record or cover without cluttering the space. Unlike shelves or frames, the La Bulle wall vinyl holder remains discreet while ensuring optimal support: no risk of the record falling or deforming over time.

As you saw in the previous section, it's also a very simple system to install, requiring no specific tools or heavy work. Just a small nail or hook is enough to transform a blank wall into a true musical decorative space.

What types of wall-mounted vinyl record holders do we offer?

At La Bulle, we have designed wall-mounted vinyl record holders adapted to the two main vinyl record formats, to meet the needs of audiophiles and interior design enthusiasts alike.

Here are the two available sizes:

• 33 rpm vinyl record: ⌀30.48 cm (most common album format)
• 45 rpm vinyl record: ⌀17.78 cm (often used for singles and special editions)

Each wall-mounted vinyl record holder is designed to perfectly fit the size of the record.

We have chosen a single color: black, which is both understated and timeless. It echoes the iconic shade of vinyl records and allows for a harmonious look, whether on a light or dark wall. This choice enhances the visual effect while highlighting the object, whether it's a record, an album, or an iconic cover.

💡 Good to know: While most vinyl records are black, it's not just for aesthetic reasons. Originally, virgin vinyl is transparent. Carbon black is added to make it more resistant, particularly to scratches and light. This pigment also improves the lifespan of the record and sound quality by limiting surface imperfections. The result: a black record, more robust, more stable, and over time, it has become a true standard in the music world.
