AS Hanging Display Systems offers a full range of accessories to fine-tune stability, security, and display options for your picture hanging rails. Below is a quick guide to the most popular add-ons, with notes on when to use them.
Leveling and anti-tilt
Frame Bumpers
Small pads that keep frames flush and help correct forward tilt. Ideal for cable, cord, or rod setups.
Frame Stabilizers
Discreet hardware that holds the lower edge of a frame steady in busy areas. Available for cable and rod installs.
Counter-Weight Stabilizer
Adds balance for larger works hung on two vertical supports, reducing lean and wobble. Often paired with Gallery hooks.
Security and retention
Cable Stop
Locks a stainless steel cable so hooks cannot be slid off and can act as a lower stop. Useful in public spaces.
Rod Collar
Retains rod hooks and supports anti-theft rod setups.
Anti-Theft Secure Rod Kit
Complete kit with secure hook, retained rod, and collar for higher security installations.
Specialty hanging and changeable displays
Poster Hanger
Grips posters and maps without pins or tape, perfect for offices, schools, and quick updates.
Acrylic Pockets
Clear pockets for flyers, notices, real-estate listings, or student work. Mount to tracks or piers; available in letter and tabloid sizes.
Fabric Clips and small accessories
Clip papers, badges, and lightweight items directly to a cable or cord for fast swaps.
Angled, stair, or vaulted installations
T-End Cord Angled Kit
Purpose-built for tracks mounted on angled walls or ceilings up to about 45 degrees, such as stairwells or vaulted spaces. Includes T-End nylon cord, mini hook, and angled stopper. Compatible with Click Rail and Up Rail.
Tensioned and architectural setups
T-End Cable Tensioner
Tightens a stainless steel cable between top and bottom tracks for rigid, panel-style or wayfinding displays. For steel cable only, not nylon cord.
Hooks, clamps, and panel fittings
Cable hooks
Self-gripping and safety styles for stainless steel cable; choose by weight and back-of-frame hardware.
Panel hooks and side or top clamps
Support unframed panels, acrylic, foam board, and signage without drilling the artwork.
Track parts and small hardware
End caps, corner pieces, and stoppers
Finish tracks cleanly and manage angled installs so cords or cables do not slide.
Start with leveling aids (bumpers or stabilizers), add security parts where needed (Cable Stop, Rod Collar, anti-theft kits), and choose specialty accessories for your use case, such as Poster Hangers, Acrylic Pockets, or the T-End Cord Angled Kit for sloped installs. Pair cable accessories with stainless steel cable, and cord-specific parts with nylon cord for the best performance.
