arth1If you are afraid of heights, do not try this at home...These paintings were hung on a second floor wall at about 20 feet high. Each is held by two strap hangers, which keeps the top of the frames close to the wall, and they will always stay level...always.
arth2The size of the art is 28"x38" and the recessed areas are 4'x8'.

   SAWTOOTH HANGER    

These hangers are used for small, light weight pieces. They do not require nails. Simply pound into the frame. These hangers need to be placed center on the top of the frame. Generally, these should not be used  on any frame bigger than regular 11"x14" wood frames

STRAP HANGERS

 strap

These type of hangers are the most  commonly used in modern picture hanging. They come in different sizes and allow the  top of the frame to hang close to the wall with minimum tilting.

Strap Hangers from left to right...
Small Single Hole Strap 1-10 lb.
Large Single Hole Strap 11-20 lb.
Double Hole Strap 21-40 lb.
Triple Hole Strap 41+ lb.

WIRE
 wire-2

We use a plastic coating stainles steel wire for hanging. These wire comes in different thicknesses for different weights of art. The wire should be placed no more than 1/3   down from the top of the frame, and should always be installed fairly tight across the piece. The tighter the wire, the less tilting occurs.

WALL HANGERS
hangers-1

The appropiate size of the wall hanger is  very important.Although this style hanger is meant to hold the weight capacity with just the drywall, it is preferred to locate a stud. Without a stud, the hangers weight capacity needs to be obeyed.

 

Z-BAR
 zeebar-1

This is an aluminum bar used for the  heaviest of items. One piece is installed on the frame and another piece on the wall.   The two bars interlock on each other and secure the frame to the wall.The strips are predrilled at 4" intervals to create 16" every fourth hole, which is also the typical   distance between the studs in a wall. Drywall screws used should be at least 2" long.
