Our installation services
We’re happy to offer our high-quality installation services to all our customers. The main products we tend to install are picture hanging systems and protective and directional barriers.
However, our technicians are also highly experienced at temporarily and permanently installing all types of AEC products in public and private spaces.
Picture hanging systems
Picture hanging systems let you quickly add or remove artwork and change layouts by simply rearranging the pictures.
We can install the following types of systems and more:
- Systems for large and heavy frames
- Wall and ceiling mounted systems
- Traditional brass rail and chain picture hanging systems
- Picture rail with 12v power supply for picture lighting
- Gallery hanging systems for suspended ceilings
- Anti-theft art hanging systems
Protective and directional barriers
We can temporarily or permanently install our stanchions with bungee cords or barrier ropes in any type of environment, including museums, art galleries, stately homes, and other types of cultural and heritage spaces.
We can also manufacture and install a range of accessories for our stanchions, including sign holders, rope eye tops, push-to-release ball tops, rope ends, rope wall terminals and bungee cord wall terminals.
These finishing touches are perfect for transforming a space into a sophisticated and inviting area for your visitors and customers.
