FAQs

What is the best way to cut the picture rail?

A fine-toothed saw or a mitre saw is recommended for clean and accurate cuts. Make sure to measure twice before cutting.

Can I paint the picture rail?

Yes, the planed surface is suitable for painting or staining. Ensure the surface is clean and primed before applying paint.

What type of screws should I use?

Use screws that are appropriate for the wall type (drywall, plaster, wood). Consider the weight of the pictures you plan to hang when choosing screw length and size.

How far apart should I space the screws?

Space screws every 16-24 inches to ensure the rail is securely attached to the wall.

Can I use this picture rail in a bathroom?

While the pine is treated, prolonged exposure to moisture is not recommended. Consider using it in well-ventilated areas or applying a waterproof sealant.

What is the warranty on this product?

Please refer to the point of purchase for warranty information.

Troubleshooting

Picture rail is not level after installation.

Check the level of the rail with a level and adjust the screws as needed.

The picture rail is not securely attached to the wall.

Ensure that the rail is screwed into wall studs for maximum support. If the screws are stripping the wood, try using larger screws or adding a small piece of wood behind the rail for extra grip.
