STAS Minirail Picture Hanging System Set - Covers 9.84 ft of Wall Space - Smallest Picture Rail & Art Hanging Gallery Kit for Art Display (White Rails, Includes 4 Hooks & Cords)

As serious art photographers (and general appreciators of visual art), and in a place with high ceilings and lots of wall space, we were looking for a hanging solution that wouldn't result in a bunch of holes in our walls. We also wanted to be able to easily change out pieces as well as their height and specific locations on the walls. This STAS system is perfect. Installation is best performed by two people, but one person could do it alone. Measure, drill, install - it's really that easy. Afterwards, art hangs securely. The look Is a bit like one would expect to see in a gallery, But, if you've got several pieces and want the flexibility of changing things out easily and without putting more holes in your place, this is an excellent solution.

It took 3 times to get this delivered without damage. Long shipping tubes are notorious for getting damaged in transit. But customer service was excellent and reached out to me to make things right. I'm very grateful for their efforts. Instillation was fairly easy. The only issue I had was that the recommended distance from the ceiling to screw holes was not far enough to clear the top plate of the wall. I wound up drilling holes that I'll have to patch. Once the wall anchors were set, the rail snapped right into place. The cords retain their curl from being rolled up for packaging, so I plan on getting weights for the ends to straighten them. I purchased extra cords and hooks with plans to hang around 20 family pictures with this system. Once I adapt my picture frames for hanging, I know they will look great with this system.

I have used these rails for several years in galleries I have owned and built. I recommend you install them lower than ceiling. They MUST be installed 100% flush to wall or else your art will dangle. They are also not as easy to install as the videos or instructions. Take your time. The Trex screws are a pain they send you a special Trex driver for your drill. They're supposed to be better with a drill than a Phillips but they strip easily and then you have a problem if you want to remove screw. Good old fashioned Phillips would work much better. When installing make sure you get the Trex mounting screws exactly parallel to each other and I mean exact. Use a level. If not exact you'll have trouble putting rail on. Take your time. Once installed properly they work great and hold a lot of weight. No more nails in wall to hang individual pieces. Great system for galleries. I recommend the steel cables rather than the plastic one's: the plastic one's curl and are just a pain, plus you have to replace plastic cables if you do multiple shows per year because the plastic gets compromised by the hooks. Oh they also make a ceiling mounted rail I've used those too. But if your ceiling has moldings they won't work your art will dangle, so instead use these wall mounted and mount rail below the moulding.

Easy to hang, a bit tricky to straighten

i like this system except that I want to use it for lightweight fiber art and the plastic filament does not straighten out. With framed pictures it works fine and I like to be able to change pictures easily.

This system was pretty easy to install. I am a 70yr old woman living alone and I was able to use my step ladder and a drill to do the job unassisted. The perlon cords retained their coiling from the packaging, but soaking them in warm water and applying a weight overnight, they eventually laid straight and flat against the wall. I'm very pleased with the gallery look for my artwork.

I bought these as part of a gift for a friend who always wanted an easier way to hanger paintings. She loves the hanging system!

Quality materials, easy install, and excellent human support

Prodotto di qualità , facile da montare e robusto. Arrivato nei tempi indicati e ben imballato

Works great and expandable

Le viti sono senza collarino, senza rondella, con testa piatta anziché tonda con invito a croce per il cacciavite come da disegno proposto a video. La rondella collarino andrebbe inserita a pressione nella sede del binario per un fissaggio stabile.

It is a quality product

Completely overpriced for what you get. I was able to find the same system at nearest big box depot for a third of the price, which is far closer to its worth.
