Stand Alone Gallery Nylon Cable

About Stand Alone Gallery Nylon Cable

It’s a stand alone gallery system without the track. Instead, it uses a unique swivel cover that holds the clear picture hanging cord straight down, allowing seamless use on ceilings and sloped walls. It requires lesser effort to install while functions exactly the same. 

The strong nylon cord is a clear picture hanging wire. It serves as an invisible rope in a gallery system setup to make the overall feel more aesthetically pleasing.

  • Supports up to 25 lbs.
  • 2 mm diameter nylon cord
  • Cord is 72 inches long
  • Easy installation. Done in just 5 minutes.
  • Swivel cover allows mounting on ceilings and sloped walls while the cord hangs straight.
  • Includes #8 x 1.5 inch screw and plastic anchor to mount to wall
  • Hooks are sold separately

Instructions

  1. Drill a hole and install the anchor in the wall.

  2. Unscrew and remove brass insert from Stand Alone Hanger.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q How do I install your art hanging systems and what tools or hardware do I need?

We offer three types of gallery systems: Wall Track Kits, Picture Rail Gallery Kits, and Brass Gallery Rod Kits. The right one for you depends on whether or not your space has a picture rail molding. Each system utilizes picture rail hooks, frame hooks, and vertical cords or rods. If your wall doesn't already have a picture rail molding, you'll just need a drill or a screwdriver and a few screws (included in the kits!) to install the track. For a detailed walkthrough, check out our complete guide: Everything You Need to Know About Gallery Systems

Q Can I remove these gallery hanging systems without damaging my walls?

For OGEE picture rail hanging systems, there will be no wall damage at all as it will only involve an existing picture rail. For systems that require installing a track or molding, some drilling is needed, which means a few small holes. Using wall anchors will mitigate the damage, and a quick spackle touch-up afterward will cover them right up.

Q How much weight can each art hanging system safely hold?

Each part of a gallery system has different weight ratings: some are made to hold a single frame (picture hooks), support multiple frames (rods and cords), and some carry the weight of the entire setup (wall tracks and moldings). Wall tracks hold up to 154 lbs, steel and nylon cords from 11-28 lbs, and adjustable frame hooks up to 44 lbs. Picture rail hooks can handle up to 25 lbs. The Brass Gallery Rod Kit's molding supports up to 70 lbs and its monkey hangers up to 25 lbs. Tip: Check each product's listing for its specific weight rating to make sure your display hangs safely.

Q What wall types are the included mounting hardware compatible with?

For gallery hanging systems that require wall tracks or installable moldings, compatibility will depend on the screws. The ones included in our kits work with wood, drywall, plaster, and concrete.

Q What kinds of frames or decor work best with art hanging systems?

The best frames for gallery systems are those that match the weight ratings of each component. Each frame should stay within the capacity of its individual hook, the combined frames on a single rod or cable should fit that rod or cable's rating, and the total weight across all rods or cables should stay within the wall track or molding's limit.
