Hanging pictures requires a lot of care and an accurate spirit level, so that nothing is crooked. This gallery bar aligns the images almost automatically!
Who hasn't struggled with wall joints or crumbling plaster?, to get two nails or screws in the wall at the same height for a picture? It works better with gallery rails, where the picture frames are suspended with nylon cords. However, this method is also a bit fiddly.
Our aluminum rail system does not have these problems. Made of 16 mm round profile and 43,5 mm wide brackets – pieces of pipe with a short leg (Alfer-Aluminium Combitech, – a rail system is built, which guarantees an uncomplicated picture change. The brackets come with approx 46 cm intermediate dimension mounted on the wall. Here you need to get back to the wall issues once again: The holders must be adjusted using the spirit level!
Then slide in the tubes, so that the joints lie in the holders, and set them with a 3×10-mm sheet metal screw. Now screw plastic clips, actually intended for fastening e-line pipes, on the back of the frame, so that they can simply be plugged onto the pipe.
Ideal for the picture gallery under the roof
Who lives under the roof, knows the problem: Hanging pictures is difficult without gluing or screwing through the frame. With this rail system you can hang your pictures just as easily as on the vertical wall! Two tracks on top of each other are the solution. When installing, however, make sure that the rails are absolutely parallel, otherwise the retaining clips will not fit.
1 Zuerst bekommen alle Halterungen je zwei Bohrungen mit 3 mm diameter.
2 So werden die Rohre in den Wandprofilen, which are doweled and screwed into the wall, held.
3 Mit einer kleinen Blechschraube wird das Rohr in der Halterung arretiert. It is best to drill the hole first, if the rail is already mounted on the wall. Alternatively, you can use a wood screw.
4 Bei Bilderrahmen aus Holz können die Schellen (so-called IRO clamps) attached directly to the back of the frame.
5 Bei rahmenlosen Bildträgern müssen Sie zunächst eine 10 to 12 mm thick wooden board. The clamps are then mounted on this.
