FAQs
Are these rings suitable for metal frames?
These rings are designed primarily for wooden frames; they may not be compatible with most standard metal frame channels.
How much weight can these hooks hold?
While durable, the weight capacity is highly dependent on the frame material and the screw penetration depth; ensure your frame wood is solid and not particle board.
Can I use these for unframed canvases?
Yes, as long as the canvas is stretched over a sturdy wooden stretcher bar.
Do I need any special tools for installation?
A standard Phillips head screwdriver is recommended for installation.
What is the finish of the rings?
The rings feature a bronze-tone finish.
Troubleshooting
Screw spinning in the wood without tightening
Remove the screw, insert a small wooden toothpick with wood glue into the hole, let it dry, and then re-insert the screw.
Frame hangs at an uneven angle
Adjust the length of the picture wire by sliding the crimps or re-tying the knots on the D-rings until the frame levels correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, center the rings on the upper third of your frame back to ensure stability. Use the provided screws and a manual screwdriver to secure the rings into the frame wood. Avoid using high-torque power drills as they can easily strip the wood or damage the frame. To maintain, inspect the screws periodically during seasonal cleanings to ensure they remain tight and the wire shows no signs of fraying or wear.
