Hi George,

 

We recently purchased a system for a temporary exhibition of paintings from Walker Display.  It was very easy to install!

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Framed portrait wall hanging systems

 

A colleague at a local children's museum visited today to ask about systems that allow you to easily hang and re-hang framed works. You know the type - long strips of metal/plastic on top of the wall that you slide a hook into, then hang a metal or plastic string with another hook and attach the frame to it? Our system is over 10 years old, and I wasn't here when we bought it, so I don't have a source handy. Can anyone out there recommend a good system?

Thanks in advance,
George Garner

P.S. It's for a small orientation space in a children's museum, so the portraits won't be very large or heavy and won't need to change terribly often (maybe once every other year to start).
