Review on Han Sheng 18 Pcs Adjustable Metal Art Gallery Display Wire Rope Hanger Hooks - Picture Rail Hooks Hanger System Accessories for 1mm-2mm Wire Rope by Morgan Gilmore

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Folding hooks for semi-permanent displays.

To sum up this review you can reverse the hooks so that the hook is actually a hook that attaches to a picture rail. Continued: There have been a number of complaints about the size of the hooks sticking out too far and looking sloppy. This can happen when you attach hooks to the frame. Using them this way makes sense if you have a rotating gallery, but doesn't look good if you're using it for more permanent use. I bought these to use on the picture ledges around my house, not to rotate them. To do this I used the hook as an attachment to the picture rail and then dropped the framing wire from the hook onto the frame. A pair of pliers is enough to optimally adjust the hook to your picture ledge. To me it's amazing to be able to adjust up and down without having to remove the frame each time to adjust the suspension cables, especially when dealing with frames on high rails or stairs. They allow you to adjust the height when hanging from the picture rail and when it fits you can then mount it and simply cut off the extra framing wire (now above) and even put a lace over it if you want extra security. I love her - and wish I had had her sooner. However, before you buy, make sure you can use them for the application you want to use. If you are using these to attach the hook to the frame I would suggest connecting the hook to the frame wire attached to the frame. It doesn't look great when you try to attach the hook directly to the frame, but I think those are complaints from people who haven't taken full advantage of these little gems.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
