Forget using drills or nails to hang pictures. Have you ever struggled to decide between an upcoming, "inviolable," home wall makeover and the urge to hang paintings or family photos? On the one hand, ornamental pieces add to the comfort and comfortability of a space. When young "artists" grow up in the home and collections of children's drawings or family photos develop, it is extremely moving. On the other hand, you really don't want to drill holes in the walls once again or use buttons or hammers to attach nails. The innovative hanging solutions created by ArtiTeq supplied by Eyevolution Ltd for artwork, photos, posters, and other decorative items leave no traces.
Although galleries and museums are excellent sources of inspiration, we frequently overlook what happens behind the scenes. How did their hanging system gain such a following? There are various reasons why picture-hanging systems have become the norm for galleries and museums around the world.
What do ArtiTeq solutions entail? It is a practically undetectable rail system that hooks thin hanging wires into a wall or ceiling. Along the wall, you can affix artwork or presentation elements on them. It is also incredibly simple to install, change, and rearrange.
Artiteq picture hanging systems do not cause damage
Galleries frequently change the topics or objects on display. Would you pound nails into a wall while holding a Van Gogh? It's inconceivable! Art may be replaced without causing damage to walls thanks to Artiteq's picture-hanging rails and rods. One installation is all that is needed. Simply take the objects out of the hooks to switch out the artwork. There is no need for maintenance or renovation of the wall.
Adaptable based on size and weight
As you are aware, art may take many forms. Different requirements apply to the Smithsonian, the Acropolis, and the Louvre. There must be a wide range of height and weight restrictions that museums can handle. Screws are prone to failure and can cause priceless objects to fall to the ground. With the capacity to quickly suspend a variety of items on wires or rods, Artiteq rail hanging systems are mounted to the wall or ceiling.
It gives you the ability to hang countless pictures
The capacity to hang many photos in a small space is one of the other main benefits of using a Artiteq picture-hanging system. For smaller objects, acrylic pocket displays are excellent. Since the Victorian era, the salon-style hanging has been popular, and it shows no signs of fading. Systems that are ceiling- and wall-mounted, work well for all picture sizes, including modest family photos and larger, heavier pieces of art.
Things to note before hanging anything
Here are a few essential practices to remember before you get started hanging photographs on plaster walls. First, stay away from plaster nails because they might damage the plaster. Second, it's a good idea to drill a hole in a plaster wall before putting anything. Finally, to hold everything in place while drilling into a wall, tape the wall with either painter's tape or masking tape.
What materials make up a plaster wall?
Plaster walls were popular interior walls up until the 1940s. To build a thick and durable wall, layers of wood called lath were stacked one on top of the other. A wall stud is a wooden structure that supports this lath. The wooden lath and studs are attached with nails. Several coats of plaster are applied on top to give a wall a good finish. Simply said, a plaster wall is constructed of lath fastened to wall studs and plastered over. Over time, drywall panels were substituted in modern homes. This was partly because they are less brittle and easier to install.
Artiteq is the finest system for hanging pictures
The rooms we utilise to display our art take many various shapes, much like the artwork itself. The sizes of the rooms vary. There are various heights to the walls. Different light sources and quantities are possible. There are numerous factors. And of course, your own preferences are a factor as well. Numerous elements influence the choice of picture hanging technique. Do not be concerned; we will explain it to you below in easy language.
A standard Artiteq hanging system includes:
Rail made of aluminium
A dangling rod or wire
A picture hook
Artiteq rails are all constructed from dependable aluminium. They come in standard lengths of either 2m or 3m and numerous finishes. If necessary, you can use an electric saw or metal hacksaw to cut them to size. It is a reasonably easy DIY project to complete. We advise lightly using fine sandpaper to smooth up the end of a rail after trimming it. There are certain rails with a white primer finish available. These rails have a white primer coating and are prepared for painting to match the colour of your walls or interior. Rail systems are typically mounted to a wall or ceiling, such as the Click Rail or Top Rail. They can also be suspended from a recessed ceiling or fitted between a wall and ceiling.
Direct connections to the rails are made with hanging wires or rods. There are two types of wires: braided steel and transparent Perlon. They come in a variety of lengths and the Perlon wires can be cut to size with a sharp retractable knife, scissors or diagonal pliers. However, we don't advise to cut steel wires as the cutting point needs special treatment in advance. If care isn't taken, the wire will begin to splay and it may become impossible to attach hooks. As an alternative, coil them behind your artwork in case you ever need the entire length. Wires have various gliders (metal top of the wire). It denotes that they attach to a rail either from its beginning, as with Solid Slider, or anyplace along it, as with Twister. We advise using two or occasionally three wires per item for hanging larger or heavier pictures. Contrarily, rods are typically made for use with J-rail systems like the Classic Rail. While the 4x4mm steel rods can support up to 100 kg, the 2mm and 3mm steel rods can support up to 20 kg. A lot of weight.
Picture hooks are threaded onto the wires and rods. The hooks can be positioned where you want them by sliding them vertically on the wire. If you often rearrange your display or need to hang heavy objects up to 20 kg, hooks with auto-lock mechanisms, such as the Micro Grip Hook or Ratchet Hook, are a perfect option for hanging photos. On the other hand, the screw-lock hooks are simple to use and happily support up to 10kg. All systems are extendable since you can always add new components, including picture hangers and hanging wires. If the photographs are larger, use two hooks per frame or numerous pictures on a single wire. You have a plethora of alternatives here.
Benefits of using Artiteq hanging systems
Installing a hanging system in your home has several advantages. Previously, you most likely hung your photo frames with nails. Everybody has. Although it's a quick fix, removing the frame, moving it, or changing your display will leave a hole in your wall. You can hang and rearrange your frames whenever you choose by using a rail system. A system makes hanging images simpler. Systems like ARTITEQ's have been used by galleries and museums for years. And there's good justification for that. The hanging systems don't need much upkeep and are quite sturdy (they may last for many years of constant use). It's a straightforward fix that has grown in popularity in both residential and business settings recently.
Why Artiteq hanging system works best?
As you can see, there are numerous Artiteq options available to you when selecting the ideal hanging solution for your artwork. The solution truly relies on your preferences, the amount of space you have, and the objects you are hanging. Here are a few project-related ideas for you to think about.
The most popular hanging solution on the market is ARTITEQ Click Rail. It is a highly adaptable and ubiquitous system with several uses in residences and galleries. The most popular gallery system is the Classic Rail+, on the other hand. The Top Rail would be the finest choice if you're seeking a system for ceiling installation. Additionally, it can be mounted on suspended ceilings. The most widely used system for hanging and displaying messages, invoices, drawings, and postcards is the Info Rail.
In the end, the choice is yours. We usually advise drawing out on paper how you want your wall to look before you make a purchase. If you later change your mind, do not worry. It's only a starting place. Please keep in mind that installing a picture hanging system will allow you to quickly change the entire art wall.
