FAQs
Are these hooks compatible with modern flat picture rails?
These hooks are specifically designed for rounded traditional and Victorian-style moulding and may not fit securely on modern, flat-profile rails.
Do I need special tools to install these?
No tools are required for installation; they simply hook over the top of the moulding.
Can I use these with any brand of picture wire?
While they are designed for the Stas system, they are generally compatible with most standard loop-end cords and cables.
What is the maximum weight limit?
The weight capacity is primarily determined by the strength of your moulding rail rather than the hook itself, though the hooks are built for high durability.
Are these hooks available in other colors?
Yes, they are also available in white to match lighter decor schemes.
Troubleshooting
Hook appears loose or unstable on the rail
Ensure the hook is pushed completely down over the contour of the moulding and that the cord tension is pulling it toward the wall.
Hook is marking the paint on the moulding
Apply a small piece of felt or protective tape to the inner curve of the hook to provide a soft buffer between the metal and the rail.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply place the hook securely over the top edge of your picture rail moulding, ensuring it sits flush against the contour. Before hanging heavy art, verify that your existing moulding is firmly attached to the wall.
Regarding compatibility, these hooks are designed to interface with most standard loop cords, perlon cables, and steel wires. For regular maintenance, wipe the hooks with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust accumulation. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the gold finish over time.
