FAQs

What material are these picture rail hooks made from?

These hooks are made from solid brass.

What kind of hanging system are these hooks for?

They are designed specifically for use with traditional built-in picture hanging systems or picture rails.

How do I clean the polished brass finish?

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What color is the finish?

The hooks have a polished brass finish, which typically appears as a warm, golden color.

Troubleshooting

Hook slips on the picture rail

Ensure the picture rail itself is not damaged or worn. Try repositioning the hook to a different section of the rail or ensure it is fully engaged with the rail's profile.

Artwork appears unstable

Verify the hook is securely attached to the rail and that the artwork's hanging wire or cord is properly connected to the hook. Check the weight of the artwork against the hook's intended load-bearing capacity (use discretion for heavier items).

Hook loses its shine

Gently clean the hook with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals.
