The SpringLOCK Method B system is designed for professional galleries, museums, and public spaces where securing artwork and framed items against unauthorized removal is a critical priority. This system provides a robust locking mechanism that ensures frames remain flush against the wall and tamper-resistant; however, users must account for the fact that the proprietary release tool required for future adjustments or removal is sold separately, making it essential to acquire one for long-term maintenance.

No, the SpringLOCK release tool is a dedicated component that must be purchased separately.
The system is compatible with most wood-backed frames, provided there is enough surface area on the frame back to mount the hang plates.
The release tool is essential for accessing the artwork. If lost, you will need to purchase a replacement to remove the frames without causing damage.
The system is professional-grade and robust, but always ensure your wall anchors are rated for the total weight of your specific frame and glass.
The kit includes two hang plates, one marker button, and six mounting screws.
Check that the hang plates are installed level and that the distance between them matches the wall anchor placement exactly.
Verify that the screws are fully tightened and that there is no debris preventing the locking mechanism from fully clicking into the 'secured' position.
Installation requires a level, a drill, and the appropriate wall anchors for your specific wall substrate (drywall, masonry, or wood). Begin by attaching the hang plates to the back of the frame, ensuring they are perfectly aligned. Use the provided marker button to mark the wall location to ensure the lock engages correctly. Once mounted, the system requires very little maintenance. Inspect the screws annually to ensure they remain tight against the wall surface. If the artwork needs to be moved, ensure you have the SpringLOCK release tool on hand; attempting to force the frame off the wall without the tool will damage both the frame and the wall surface.
