Hello,
I would like to attach an existing tempered glass panel measuring 119 cm x 68 cm and 4 mm (0.16 inches) thick as a coat rack backing on a drywall surface (with an OSB board underneath). It will be used for children’s jackets.
The glass panel has no pre-drilled holes.
What would be the best way to securely mount the glass panel? How many brackets would you recommend? The panel should hang as close to the wall as possible.
Are there hooks that can be attached to the glass surface to hang clothes without drilling?
Thank you.
Regards

My uncle (who owns a glass workshop) attaches mirrors and glass panels, as far as I know, using special mirror adhesive tape. If needed, this can be removed with fishing line.
However, the tape has to hold not only the glass panel but also hooks and a jacket. Therefore, it is definitely worth considering framing the panel in wood or at least attaching something at the bottom to support it.

Since I wrote this post, I have been wondering how anyone could consider using glass for children.
Otherwise, I would treat a glass shelf like a board and use two supports, whatever kind.
After reading through the threads, it seems to be about a back panel? That logic doesn’t make sense to me. Treat the back panel like a mirror wall. Otherwise, there are hooks designed for smooth surfaces as well 🙂
