Soft-Rail® picture rails

Assemble your own Soft-Rail® picture rail system
It can be advantageous to put together the individual components of the soft rail picture rail system yourself. This way, you only pay for the items that you actually need.
Two frequently asked questions are
- Can the picture rails be placed end to end without a transition?
- Can the picture rails be easily cut to size with a small hacksaw?
The answer to both questions is "yes": The picture rails can be joined together seamlessly by placing both ends of the rails on a power clip. As the picture rails are made of aluminium with a wall thickness of 1.2 mm, they can also be cut to size using a small hacksaw (see accessories).
If you would like to make use of an installation service, you will find a separate category for this under picture hangers. Local fitters are recommended there for fitting the Soft-Rail picture rail system. You will also find installation tips (enclosed with every delivery) in one of the illustrations on the left.

Application and Mounting Tips
1It is best to mark a drilling line approximately 2 cm below the ceiling first.
2If two rails are to be connected end-to-end, mark the joints on the drilling line.
3Next, drill holes for fastening the power clips (5 mm) every 50 cm or so, insert the wall plugs and screw in the power clips. Don’t forget the joints!
4 Finally, press the rails onto the power clips with a light tap of your hand. Please allow a gap at the ends to insert gliders or perlon cords with disk gliders into the rail.
5If the profile at the end of a rail is visible, use end caps for a neat appearance.
6Perlon cords with disk gliders have two functions:
a) They can be inserted directly into the picture rail from the side.
b) In combination with the snake gliders, they can be hooked in at any point along the picture rail (only suitable for Soft-Line).
7Sliding hooks are needed for perlon or steel cords with loops and are inserted into the picture rail from the side.
8Ceiling clip as special accessory, e.g., for mounting in shop windows. Please note: When mounting to ceilings, the rail will not sit flush against the wall.
