Recently moved into a new house with a finished bonus room over the garage. Thinking of turning it into a mancave/theater type of room with all of my sports memorabilia on the walls. Only catch is that there is only about 3-4 feet of wall before the ceiling begins and slants to the peak of the roof. I have a few autographed jerseys in display cases(i.e. heavy), and (2) signed Jordan wingspan posters that are about 5-6' long. I've read about keyhole brackets and also security hangers, but wanted to see if anyone here had any luck accomplishing something similar.

You could go get some pieces of decent hobby wood from Lowes - the quarter inch or half inch stuff, like 3 or 4 inches wide - then build small four sided rectangular boxes for each side. Drill those to the wall and slide your picture or jerseys in. Could do the same thing with pipe and whatnot from the plumbing section too.

They'd look decent (better if you put a finish on them) and be guaranteed not to fall.

How about 2 sets of opposing dove tail on the wall and on the frames and slide the frame on the the dove tails.
