Have you ever walked around an art gallery
or museum and marvelled at how well the pieces are displayed? They appear to be
floating on the wall with nothing to distract from the picture itself.
This is because galleries, museums and
public buildings have long used picture hanging track to display items – and
not just because it looks good. It’s because it makes it so easy.
Smaller galleries that change their
exhibitions frequently need a quick and easy system that won’t damage the
walls. There is no way you’d catch artists and curators hammering hooks and
nails into the wall!
Picture Hanging Track
They use a picture hanging rail system.
This comes in a couple of different forms. The most popular system comprises
track, which is screwed to the wall, hangers and hooks. For a more traditional
look, you can use a picture rail, on which you use hooks to hold the hangers.
Both these types of picture hanging track
are now available to the public and very affordable.
The traditional picture rail system is
proving to be very popular with those renovating older homes, such as authentic
Queenslanders. It adds a real sense of age and charm.
Picture Hanging Rail System
Picture hanging track is strong, easy to
mount on the wall and available in powder-coated white or anodised aluminium,
so you can always match your décor. The track is designed to allow the hangers
to be moved from side to side, so you can accommodate all your pictures. Choose
the height and the position and it all just slides into place.
Depending on which make you buy, you can
also integrate professional gallery lighting on the same track.
Picture hanging systems are great all
around the home – and not just for artworks. They are brilliant for children’s
rooms, allowing you to hang white boards, chalk boards and more.
