Wall Tracks
Divide length of hanging area by track length for number of tracks to order. Tracks can easily be cut to any size during installation.
Original Gallery System wall track, 6.5-foot (2-meter) length, paintable anodized aluminum finish (also available in pre-painted white finish). Track cuts easily to any desired length. Compatible with Gallery System Lighting. Optional wood molding cover can be painted or stained for more traditional look (wood molding and lighting cannot be used simultaneously). Note: because installations vary, mounting hardware is not included.
As above, in white painted finish.

Typical installations require 10 hangers per 20-30 feet of hanging area.

A simple, effective way to ensure that pictures don't lean forward — the simple HangRight clip holds the hanging system cable close to the rear of the artwork, keeping it flat to the wall. Easy one-screw installation.
Hang lightweight (up to 2 pounds) unframed artworks easily with these self-adhesive hanger tabs, which provide a convenient attachment point for hanging hooks when mounted on the backing material. Zig-zag cutout makes them self-leveling; place upper edge about 1.5 inches below the top of the work to conceal the hanging hook. Size 1 inch wide x 2.5 inches high; sold in packs of 10. NOTE: the adhesive in these hangers should be considered permanent when attached to softer backing materials like paper and fiber.
Help prevent pictures from leaning away from the wall by mounting these self-adhesive bumpers on the back bottom corners of the frame — they move the lower edge of the work slightly outward to reduce the angle of lean. Clear, supple material won't mar walls. Dimensions: 3/8 inch diameter, 3/16 inch thick. Sold in sheets of 10.
