The Artiteq Top Rail is a discreet, ceiling-mounted picture hanging rail designed for interiors where a wall-mounted rail is not practical or a subtle installation is preferred. With a maximum stated load capacity of 20 kg per running metre, it provides a flexible solution for displaying and repositioning artwork in homes, offices, galleries, showrooms and commercial interiors.
A Discreet Ceiling-Mounted Picture Hanging Solution
The Top Rail offers an alternative to traditional wall-mounted picture hanging systems. Compatible hanging wires and hooks can be repositioned along the installed rail, allowing artwork arrangements to be adjusted without repeatedly drilling new holes in the wall.
Its slim profile helps the hanging system blend discreetly into the surrounding interior. For suitable suspended ceiling installations, the rail can be attached to the wooden side lath of the ceiling system, provided the ceiling construction and fixing points are appropriate for the intended load.
