By keeping the tool free of moving or electronic parts, the Stud 4 Sure is easy to use and fits easily into any tool pouch. Just place the stud finder on the wall and sweep in an "S" pattern to locate any metal fastener.

The magnetic stud finder works like magic. It sticks to the wall leaving your hands free--no batteries, no calibration, no lights, no hassle. It works on wood or metal studs, and uses multiple industrial strength magnets to “Field Vector” the stud. This is the last stud finder you will ever buy. Simply slide the flat surface of the magnetic stud finder slowly across a wall in a circular or "S" motion until you feel a strong pull to a nail head or screw. Once you have the magnetic stud finder directly above a nail head or screw, let it go and it sticks to the wall. See more

  • Simple, powerful, perfect — magnetic stud-finder and mini-level
Number of Items: 1
I bought this CH Hanson Magnetic stud finder nearly 10 years ago to replace a similar one that I’d lost, and it has held up amazingly well — a decade later and it still looks brand new, and the magnet hasn’t lost any of its power and the level still works too. The magnet on this tiny little pocket-sized stud-finder is STRONG. Any time I forgetfully slip it into my pocket that I keep my keys in, I have to pry it off of my keys and any other random bits of metal (nails, screws, paper clips, everyday carry keychain tools, etc) I might’ve been carrying around me haha. In addition to working as a stud-finder and quick level-check, the strength of the magnet also makes it handy for quickly finding dropped screws on the ground — just run this along any area where you might’ve dropped something metal, and this little beast will grab it. I like to use this alongside an electric stud-finder when possible — the electric ones (the battery-powered scanners) can be prone to false positives and and often need to be run across walls multiple times, but they can also provide more insight into where the center of the stud is, if there’s the danger of live electrical wires behind the wall, and the rough depth of the wood, etc. — whereas this classic magnet-style one will simply clamp onto whatever part of the wall has some metal behind it… But by using both the electric ones and the old-school magnet style stud finders on separate passes, you can quickly narrow things down to the safest places to drill. ... show more

  • Easy peasy and accurate
Number of Items: 1
You know the saying "You get what you pay for". Sometimes that's incorrect and doesn't apply to everything. I've learned this the hard way when purchasing an electronic stud finder. Cost 3-4 times this price and doesn't do very well. In fact, accuracy was inconsistent. I was very skeptical of other YouTubers mentioning this product and demonstrating it. I thought it was too good to be true. Since I was trying to mount a flat-screen TV on the wall. I didn't want to drill holes into gas or water pipes, or any electrical wiring. That's the scary part. It doesn't detect any of those. So I researched carefully over several videos to show how to prevent that from happening. Cause this device which everyone knows doesn't require any batteries, any fancy technologies which could bring flaws. This was simply attaching itself to a stud and it worked flawlessly every time. Unlike the electronic stud finder which brings inconsistent results and pointed out studs that were within range, but, it was off the mark. The fact is, I've read that you must have in the center of a stud and not on the side. Once I saw the demonstrations on if the nail isn't centered on the stud or close to it, it would cost more headaches and damage. Anyway, a small little built-in leveler as well. I've decided to test an area close to the bottom where a stud was found using this tool. I using a small drill bit and let it sink into the drywall. Make sure there were sudden shifts in changes of the feel of if I had to apply more pressure or not. I've also looked to see if fragments of wood was evident on the drill bit. To that extent, it was correct. I found small pieces of wood on my drill bit and I knew it was safe. I just have to find one stud since the mounting plate, required 3 holes drilled into the stud vertical. (Note: I did drill them at the level I wanted to, I just drilled the first test in order to prevent them from being seen). 3 weeks have passed since I have mountained my TV, and it's one that can fully extend and tilt.. No problems with the TV and no signs of it showing stress on the stud. So happy to find such a cheap and accurate stud finder. Sometimes you just need basic tools to get the job done. This will serve me well for putting up floating shelves or other DIY projects in the future. ... show more

  • Accurate Stud Locator
Number of Items: 1
Very cool little device that I saw on This Old House. As long as the fasteners are centered on the studs this device will provide very accurate stud location. Bubble level is a nice touch. Much better than the other electronic battery operated ones I have used. You'll need to slide the finder around a bit but once you find a nail or screw it snaps right to it. Magnets are quite powerful. Works best on sheetrock, not always so well through wood. ... show more

  • CH Hanson Magnetic Studfinder and integral level
Number of Items: 1
This is a fantastically simple but effective tool in locating wooden studs in dry wall for fixing TV mounts, pictures or other wall mounted devices. The stud finder will attach to the nails placed in the stud when the dry wall is attached. The level can be used separately or in combination with the device to locate the level site of attachment to the wall. The product does not require batteries and is very durable overall. Every DIYer should have this device in his or her toolbag! ... show more
