![]() ![]() ![]() They were noticeably sturdier than the competitor of the same design. These hooks arrived with the brand etching as shown by Amazon, so I knew they were the hooks advertised. This brand is sturdier than the others, also made of stainless steel to not rust and stain your siding. Vinyl Siding Screw Hooks, Naceture security camera hooks There was only the slightest difference in thickness and these hold more weight than I would want long-term on my siding. I would not hesitate to buy and use these again if my favorite brand, Naceture, was not available. The actual hook size to hand items on is generous and is easy to use. ![]() The design is a good design and they performed well, for most uses, a more durable hook is just not necessary. The No-Hole Hooks were the second most expensive out of the stainless steel hooks, but they were not the most durable, or even the second most durable. No Hole on the Left, Naceture on the right Yes, they are much lower profile than the Command Hooks, but not noticeably than the other siding hooks. ![]() They are advertised as low profile, but there was not a measurable difference between these and the competition. No-Hole clips are made from stainless steel, so it will not rust and stain your siding. I would not want to hang anything of higher weight than that on my vinyl siding panel, for concern of damaging the siding. Additional testing without the angle and manipulation showed this hook did hold up to the 10 pounds claimed. The act of adding additional lines altered the angle of the hook with the siding, leading to its popping off at a lower weight than expected. The actual addition of additional twine to the hook, which faces the siding, actually was the deciding factor for this hook in my trials. I tested these, using the inner hook to hang twine with weights from, while the advertised use is to have the screw extrude enough to hang decorative items with a hook on the back, such as a plaque. The clips that arrived from Amazon did not come with the etching of HUXOR as shown in the picture at Amazon, the shape of the hook looked correct, but I could not be certain they were the brand advertised or made from the material advertised. All of the hooks were the same difficulty level to install, once the seam was found, and the correct angle/twist was found, they all went up with only a moderate level of desire to curse. Huxor are made from stainless steel, which is great as it will not leave rust streaks on the siding if left up. The command hook was a decorative shape and bronze color and was designed to be seen, not hide. The white color was unobtrusive against my ivory siding but was 1 ½ inch wide as opposed to the ½ to 3/3 inch of the metal hooks. I do like that I can feel confident that the hook will fail before there is damage done to the siding. Neither the hook nor the siding showed warping after removal, but the hook did show signs of mechanical stress, in the form of white stress marks, on the plastic. The VZ Hang warped slightly and the siding warped slightly as the weight increased until the hook was touching the siding below it, and sprung out and fell when the last pound was added to the hook. The hook area was smaller and had physical room for fewer twine loop attachments, but did hold up to 5, which was plenty for the 5-pound test. These were labeled for up to 5 pounds, which it did well. VZ Hang hooks are made from plastic, which slid onto the seam easily without concern that it might scratch the vinyl.
