What are the most suitable picture rails for a gallery?

In a gallery, professional hanging systems are essential to ensure security, flexibility, and aesthetics. Here are the most suitable types of hanging systems, along with their advantages:


? The best hanging systems for an art gallery

1. Aluminum wall-mounted rail hanging systems (e.g., Newly R70, Newly r30, Click Rail Pro)

  • Capacity: up to 70 kg per meter.

  • Advantages:

    • Very discreet (often painted white, blend into the wall).

    • Modular: allows for easy artwork changes without drilling.

    • Compatible with nylon or steel cables and adjustable hooks.

  • Perfect for: permanent galleries or high-end temporary exhibitions.

2. Ceiling-mounted hanging systems ("Click Up Rail")

  • Capacity: similar to wall-mounted rail.

  • Advantages:

    • Ideal for walls made of glass, exposed concrete, or difficult to drill into.

    • Allows for very vertical, clean, and airy hanging.

  • Perfect for: modern or architectural spaces.

3. Tensioned cable hanging systems (from ceiling to floor or from rail to floor)

  • Advantages:

    • Very contemporary design.

    • Allows for creating suspended panels or "column" artworks.

  • Perfect for: modern art installations.

4. Hanging systems with security features (anti-theft)

  • For high-end galleries, museums, or public spaces.

  • Special cables and hooks to prevent accidental dislodging or theft.
