Engineered to manage maximum art load per panel

Art Racks-Benton2 (1)

Racks are pulled or pushed with little effort and are vibration-free

With ceiling hung/floor guided racks, the load is transferred directly into the ceiling or floor via a steel support structure giving stability

Fixed screens can be freestanding or wall-mounted to hang your art

Linking panels together helps create longer horizontal screens for hanging larger collections
