When you’re hanging a heavy picture on the wall or securing large pieces of furniture, you need to do so over a wall stud to ensure a firm connection. Otherwise, it’ll fall right out of the wall, potenially bringing a chunk of said wall along with it. To find studs in a wall, you need a stud finder, and if you’re in need of a stud finder, Stanley has you covered.
The Stanley S50 W Stud Finder can detect wood and metal studs in walls at up to 3/4 in. depths. Just turn it on, drag it along the wall, and the sequential LED indicators light up when a stud is found. The finder can also detect both the centers and edges of studs, giving you a more precise idea of where the stud actually is within the wall (and perhaps more importantly, where it isn’t).
Ace Hardware users have given this stud finder a 4.4 out of 5 rating. The simple LED design makes it very easy to work with, and according to several users, it’s more accurate in stud location than similar devices. The Stanley S50 W Stud Finder is available at Ace Hardware for $17.99.
