Using a laser level to measure the range on the wall

A laser level is a handheld tool that can be used to verify and ensure accuracy for a variety of projects. Utilizing a laser, the device shines a perfectly straight line onto a work area. This laser can be projected at either a horizontal or vertical right angle, and many can achieve angled lines. 

Laser levels project a constant red or green light that can be used for personal DIY projects all the way up to major construction projects. 

Some common uses for laser levels include: 

  • Hill grading for landscaping and retaining walls
  • Home construction
  • Hanging kitchen and bathroom cabinets
  • Installing a drop ceiling
  • Plumbing and tile work
  • Hanging picture frames and shelving
