For an accurate measurement, it's best to measure your walls in meters and include an extra 10% to 15% to account for any potential waste. Cutting the rails to size can be easily done with a hacksaw. It's also important to take into consideration the number of joints on the wall. On a 3900mm wall, for instance, it's advisable to use two 2m lengths to limit the number of joints. Minimizing the number of joins not only makes the installation cleaner, but also gives a more polished look. Avoid using multiple small pieces to join together, as this can appear messy.

Yes, you can cut the rail to size using a hacksaw. It is recommended to place the cut edge in a corner or use an end cap to cover the cut end.

To select items that work together, you need to consider the weight capacity of each item and the weight of the items you want to hang. Make sure that the total weight of the items you want to hang does not exceed the weight capacity of the hangers and hooks you are using. Additionally, consider the size of the items you want to hang, and make sure that the hangers and hooks you select can accommodate them. For larger items, you may need to use multiple hangers and hooks to ensure that they are securely hung. You can also ask us for recommendations on the best hangers and hooks for your specific needs and artwork.

In most cases, it is recommended to continue the hanging rails over doors and windows for a neater appearance.

The rail is paintable, but it's important to prepare the surface properly to ensure the paint adheres well. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Clean the rail thoroughly to remove any dust and grease.
2. Gently sand the rail with fine sandpaper to create a rough surface for the paint to adhere to.
3. Ensure the rail is completely clean, dust-free, and grease-proof before painting.
4. Use acrylic paint to give the rail a fresh and updated look.

Yes, it's possible to install the hanging rail around corners using the matching corner connectors, which are available for purchase in our online store. These connectors can be used for both inner and outer corners.

No, the rail cannot be installed diagonally or on a big angle.

If you have a slightly crooked cornice or ceiling, don't worry, it's a common issue. The difference can range from a few millimeters to a few centimeters. In this case, aligning the rail with the cornice/ceiling instead of trying to install it perfectly straight can create a more visually appealing look. To straighten your hanging items, you may need to adjust the length of the hangers where the hooks attach. If you're unsure, don't hesitate to ask us. Please note that we do not recommend installing the rail at a drastic angle.

Yes, it can be done. The best method for removing the rail from the fastening clips is to use a screwdriver with a cloth wrapped around it to avoid damaging the rail. Begin by placing the screwdriver at the bottom of the rail and gently prying it away from the wall. Once you've made some progress, you can loosen the rail by hand.

However, it's not recommended to remove or move the rail as there is a risk of accidental damage. Also, the effort required to repair and repaint the wall may not be worth the time. If you're moving, it's suggested to leave the rail in place and take the hooks and hangers with you. If you want to hang your artwork elsewhere in your home, it's advisable to purchase additional rails instead of removing the existing one.

Yes, our hanging rail system is versatile and can be used to hang more than just paintings. You can hang a variety of items, such as whiteboards, clocks, mirrors, and other decorative pieces, as long as you keep the maximum weight limit in mind. Simply use the appropriate hooks to secure your items and you're good to go!

Yes, additional hanging rails can be added to extend the length along a wall. The additional hanging rails can be easily connected together using connectors.

For example, if you have a 5m wall then you will use 3x 2m hanging rails and the last hanging rail will be cut at 1m. You will also use 2x connectors to connect all 3 hanging rails.

Every 2 metres of track purchased comes with a screw and plug set. It includes:

6x Wall Plugs for brick walls
6x Screws
6x Buttons

Yes our art hangers come in 2 different sizes: 1.8 meters and 2.4 meters.

The type of hooks and hangers you need will depend on the item you want to hang up on your wall. Every hook and hanger on our website contains information on what it is compatible within the product description. It is recommended to choose hooks and hangers that can hold the weight of your item and meet your hanging requirements. If you are unsure, please don't hesitate to ask us.

Please see the Weight Capacity section in the FAQs for the Compatible Hooks and Hangers with their Maximum Weight Capacities.

Yes, you can hang multiple pieces on one hanger, but it's important to keep in mind the maximum load capacity of the hanger and divide the weight evenly between the hooks. Make sure not to exceed the maximum recommended weight limit to avoid damaging the hanger or your artwork.

The nylon hanger can be cut, but be cautious when doing so. Using a blunt pair of scissors or knife can create a rough edge that makes it difficult to attach the hook. To avoid this, we recommend rolling up the excess hanger and hiding it behind the artwork.

On the other hand, the steel hanger cannot be cut, as it will fray.

Yes, the hooks and hangers can be repositioned on the rail by simply sliding them to a different location on the rail. The hooks can be repositioned on their hanger by moving them up or down. As always, it is important to make sure that the maximum load capacity of the rail and hooks/hangers is not exceeded.

It is recommended to use the Precision Hooks or Super Security Precision Hooks with the Stainless Steel Hangers for heavy or delicate items. These hooks and hanger combination have a greater load capacity.

Furthermore, if you choose the Super Security Precision Hooks, they have a locking mechanisms, which is an extra security feature.

Always check the maximum load capacity of the hook or hanger before hanging any item and ensure it is appropriate for the weight of the item you want to hang.

The weight capacity of the 2m Clip In Art Track can support up to 20kg per meter depending on the wall (brick or gyprock). Then the type of hooks and hangers need to be considered.

Compatible Hooks and Hangers with their Maximum Weight Capacities*:

Clip-in Nylon Hanger + Spring Hook = 4kgs
Clip-in Nylon Hanger + Zipper Hook = 8kgs
Clip-in Stainless Steel Hangers + Precision Hook = 10kgs
Clip-in Stainless Steel Hangers + Zipper Hook = 10kgs
Clip-in Stainless Steel Hangers + Super Security Precision Hook = 10kgs

*The maximum weight capacity always depends on the system as a whole (Wall + Track + Hangers + Hooks). These weight capacities assume the system is installed correctly into a brick wall.

John has a beautiful piece of artwork that he wants to display in his home. He has a brick wall that measures 2 meters in length and he wants to mount the piece on it. His artwork weighs 14 kilograms and is approximately A0 in size (84.1cm x 118.9cm).

Fortunately, John's artwork is within the weight capacity of the 2m Clip In Art Track, which can support up to 20kg per meter. He can now proceed to install the art track on his wall.

When it comes to choosing the right hooks and hangers, John should keep in mind that the piece of artwork is larger than A4 (21.0cm x 29.7cm) in size. Hence, it is recommended to use two hooks and two hangers, one on each side, for added stability.

Unfortunately, the combination of Spring Hooks + Clip-in Nylon Hangers won't work as it has a weight capacity of only 4 kilograms. John should opt for either 2 Precision Hooks + 2 Clip-in Stainless Steel Hangers or 2 Super Security Precision Hooks + 2 Clip-in Stainless Steel Hangers. Both of these options offer a combined weight capacity of 20 kilograms, which will work perfectly for John's 14 kilograms piece of art.

Sally and Ben, the proud parents of three aspiring artists, are faced with the task of displaying their children's beloved masterpieces. With a collection of artwork ranging in size from A4 to A3 and weighing no more than 2 kgs each, even with frames, they were feeling overwhelmed by the volume of work they had to hang.

Fortunately, they discovered the Hanging Man system, which eliminates the need for numerous holes in the wall and provides them with the flexibility to rearrange and hang new artwork over time. They have chosen to display all 30 pieces along their 6 meter long hallway entrance, which features a cornice.

To accommodate the total weight of 60 kgs of artwork, evenly distributed along the 6-meter-long wall, the Clip In Art Track is the perfect solution, providing a capacity of 20 kgs per linear meter.

For an economical option, Sally and Ben can use Nylon Hangers equipped with Spring Hooks, each capable of supporting 4 kgs of weight when used together. This means they can hang 8 kgs of artwork by using one hook and hanger on each side.

Alternatively, Sally and Ben can stack multiple pieces of artwork on one hanger, with a maximum of 3 pieces per hanger. To do this, they will need two Nylon Hangers and six Smart Springs, which will allow them to hang 6 kgs of artwork in total, equating to 3 kgs on each side. The final arrangement and placement of the pieces are left to Sally and Ben's creativity, as long as they do not exceed 20 kgs per linear meter.
