How do you secure a wall clock?
How do you hang a clock on the wall and secure it so it doesn't fall off from the jouncing as you travel? What has worked for you?

We use one screw for the slot and Velcro tabs at the bottom. Has never fallen off or rotated out of position.
Ditto, works well, and is easy to remove to change the battery.- A 3M Command Hook for the slot in the back of the clock, and a small "blob" of Fun Tac on the bottom to keep it from rocking while moving. Can't permanently mount it since the battery compartment & setting controls are on the back.
- Drill 2- 2" holes through the clock and the wall. Get some 3/4 in chain put it through the clock and wall and weld it. Problem solved. Or you can look at your wrist.

I take it off the wall and put it on the bed when traveling. When camped, it goes back on the wall... :)
Good luck!

x2- Screw-in wall anchors. I drilled two holes in the frame of the clock and use long screws thru the frame and into the anchors.

Mine is hung just by a screw in the slot. It has never fallen off.
x2 And has worked in TT and the MH. Both times it was in the center of the unit and not near the back end where bouncing is more pronounced.
Never needed the Velcro.- We used heavy duty self adhesive Velcro. Works. Also use it for other applications too.
- Heavy duty Velcro to hang our large (8x10”) atomic clock with weather info. Two years no problems.
- Mine has one screw for the slot and Velcro tabs at the bottom. Has never fallen off for over 18 years of Full Time use.
- Our last TT, a Wildcat, used a screw and a piece of Velcro as others have deescribed.
Our new AF hangs from one screw and flops all over the place when moving.
