How to hang glass on the wall.

To determine the most effective method for hanging a specific piece of glass art decide where you want to hang it. The best part is that they can be used for any size fracture print. All wall mounted prints come complete with wall dog screws. I could not have put a 20 foot dragon on the wall without the non drilling system.

The edge grip system provides yet one more elegant option for those times when one cannot permanently affix the standoff. Each mount consists of an anchor a screw a barrel and a cap. Natural light a spotlight or other light source sets off the art glass to good advantage. The rule of thumb for hanging wall decor over a mantel is that the art piece is roughly the same size as the firebox.

Choose edge grip stand off mounts to hang glass art and signage. Like i mentioned before these windows are relatively lightweight and i usually hang them flush against a wall so i use the hooks and eyes with picture hanging wire to hang them. Often stained glass is installed in front of a regular window to let the light shine through but you can hang it against a wall or hang it from the ceiling so that it hangs within a room. Stand off mounts allow you to suspend the piece away from the wall.

Hanging a stained glass window is not the same thing as installing a stained glass window. The position where you can light the art glass to best effect can help in determining a good placement for it. For a heavier window or one that hangs in a way that leaves it open to wind at the side or on the front of a porch for example i d use d rings and chain instead. This is ideal for glass art and signage because it allows light to reflect through enhancing translucence.

These screws are 1 1 4 inch long and can be used for concrete masonry and can be used directly into drywall without the need for an anchor. Mixed with a mirror. When hanging a stained glass window instead of installing the panel into a wall the window may be left there permanently or it may later be taken down. Thank you hang your glass.
