How to Choose the Perfect Photo Hanging System


With professional picture hanging systems now available for home and office use, many more people are saying farewell to unsightly nails and picture hooks, and hello to this modern practical solution.

There are a few different systems to choose from, so where do you start? The secret is to find the system that best suits your interior, collection and budget.

What are you planning to hang? This will help you decide how strong your system needs to be. Mind you, this can be deceptive; take the Slimline picture hanging system, for example. It’s so minimalist and discreet yet it can hold up to 15-kilograms on one hook.

Picture Rail System

This is a great choice if your home is modern, especially as it’s available in white or anodised silver. If, however, you have a more traditional home, or you’re renovating a beautiful old Queenslander, you may prefer the traditional picture rail system.

Picture rails date back many hundreds of years and made a big comeback when renovation fever hit Australia. To my mind, they are still one of the best ways of hanging artwork, especially if you opt for traditional brass hooks.



A major benefit of all of Gallery System UK systems in versatility. It doesn’t matter whether you need a system for a small space or a huge void, you can simply keep adding to the system. You can even add an integral lighting system if you wish!
