What’s an Picture Hanging Hook?

The hook is used to attach art to the hanger and is fully adjustable along the length of the hanger.Rod hooks work with aluminum or stainless steel rods and are available in 3 styles: standard, heavy-duty, and with safety lock. All rod hooks attach to the rod by a self-locking cam action, making the picture hanging side screw hooks easy to use and secure.Cable hooks will work on both cables and cable-rods and are divided into two types: side screw or self-gripping. Side-screw hooks adjust by manually tightening or loosening a setscrew via a knob on the side of the hook. Self-gripping hooks are the easiest to use since they automatically grip the hanger via ball bearings inside the hook, allowing them to support the most weight.We wanted to also briefly mention that when using cables or cable hanger rod, hooks can be substituted with other accessories, such as clamps or tensioners, to suspend objects such as signs, panels, or other objects.
