John has 3 pieces of artwork that are roughly A0 in size to hang along a 2 metre wall. The weight of each piece is 15kg. This works out to 45kgs of art to hang over 2 meters. Spaced evenly equating to 22.5kgs per linear metre. In this case the clip rail is not strong enough and we would recommend the Clip Rail Max to John.
The Clip rail holds 20kg/ Linear Metre.
The Clip Rail Max holds 25kg/ Linear Metre.
Selecting the correct hooks and hangers is the next step. As the three pieces of artwork are over A4 in size we recommend using 2 hooks and 2 hangers for each piece of artwork.
Smart Springs have a capacity of 4kg each. Even using one on each side of the artwork the 8kg capacity is not enough to hold the 15kg artwork. In this case we recommend two Zipper Hooks or two Super Security Hooks.
The Zipper Hook used with a Nylon Hanger has a hanging weight capacity of 15kgs.
The Zipper Hook used with a Stainless Steel Hanger has a hanging weight capacity of 20kgs.
Therefore using two of either would be more than suitable for hanging artwork that is 15kgs.
The Super Security Hooks used with a Stainless Steel Hanger has a hanging weight capacity of 15kgs. Using two of these would also be suitable for hanging 15kg artwork as using one on each side of the artwork would hold up to 30kgs.
