Picture Rail’s Unique Features
Picture Rail consists of three parts: a rail, hook, and hanger (a combination of a hanger hook and wire).
Pictures can be mounted on wall surfaces nondestructively with dedicated hangers.
Designed for any space where artworks go on walls, from galleries and public buildings to offices, shops, and residences.
Rails
Two basic rail types are available: one for “ceiling attachment” and one for “wall attachment.” Either type can be embedded in a ceiling or wall as a “prefabricated rail” or attached to an existing ceiling or wall as a “retrofitted rail.” Available in many variations to suit the size and weight of the artworks and type of Picture Rail mounting selected. Special mounting brackets should be used according to the assembly conditions.
Hooks
The hooks come in many different designs. The “before-fitted” hook slides from the end of the rail before the end-cap is attached. The “after-fitted” hook is pushed into the rail groove after the rail is installed. The “fixed type” is fixed to the rail with the built-in screw on the hook body. The “hooked type” simply hooks to the rail. The “one-touch type” connects directly with the hanger. The “Carabiner-fitted type” has a drop-prevention function.
Select the hook best suited to the Picture Rail you are installing.
Hanger
Select the best type for the intended usage and the weight of the article to be hung, from heavy to lightweight. Two mounting methods are available: “standard type” and “one-touch type.”
Specification
The Concept of Allowable Load
When using Picture Rail T-1—allowable load: wall attachment 20 kg (44 lb), ceiling attachment 30 kg (66 lb)
- Allowable load depends on the product and construction method.
- Install the product to suit the load and other conditions for wall and ceiling attachment.
CASE 01
If hanging more than one article with one hanger, the combined allowable load is 30 kg (66 lb).
CASE 02
If using more than one hanger to hang an article, hang with no more than two hangers and do not exceed a load of 30 kg (66 lb).
(If the interval between hangers is more than 1 m/39″, it should be performed in the same way.)
CASE 03
If system components (rail, hook, etc.) with different allowable loads are used in combination, the smallest allowable load applies.
CASE 04
When using plural hooks and hangers: if the total allowable loa d is within 15 kg (33 lb) and the interval between hangers is 1 m (39″) or more.
CASE 05
Never install the rail at a tilted angle.

Installation Interval and Allowable Load
- Plural hooks can be hung when the total allowable load is within 15 kg (33 lb) and the interval between hooks is 1 m (39″) or more.
- Even when hanging a picture with two hangers, the allowable load is 15 kg (33 lb) at maximum. If unexpected trouble occurs during installation, the whole load may tilt to one side and cause a major accident. Remember that the maximum allowable load for a single hanger applies even when hanging a picture with two hangers.
- While more than one picture can be hung, we recommend that you allow a sufficient space between pictures (more than 1 m/39″) to prevent collisions between picture frames during earthquakes, etc.
