When you have museum-quality artwork, it is worth museum-quality presentation.

There's a reason museums use the hanging techniques that they do. It's not just about beauty, it's about safety as well.

The museum rod system was designed to protect priceless works of art and cultural relics with ulltimate security. These hanging systems aren't exclusive to museums, however. You can and should protect and present your own artwork with museum rod systems, as well. 

Large and High-Value Framed Paintings and Photography

The most intuitive time to use a museum rod system is when you have large framed artwork that should hung with perfect elegance and safety. The museum rod system provides anchor points above and below the painting with mounting rods or wires in between. The mounting points can be adjusted without compromising the absolute rock-solid support provided to your heavy and high-quality artwork.

Wall-Mounted Sculptural Pieces

Sculptures intended to hang on a wall can also be safely suspended with museum rod systems. The adjustable horizontal and vertical design ensure that mounting points can be created wherever the sculpture is designed to be supported. This means even the most complex piece can be safely suspended.

Heavy Mirrors at Just the Right Height

You may also find that the museum rod system is ideal for hanging any large, heavy, and beautiful items from your walls. Oversized mirrors, for example, can be firmly secured in exactly the right place -and even at the right angle to provide the best reflection for each room.
