Architectural display system using stainless steel rods

Posted on December 05, 2012 | Posted by Murray Johns

The variety of attractive and interesting architectural display hardware includes the use of stainless steel rods to support display graphics and items.  The stainless steel rods provide a rigid structure for decorative mural assemblies and displays.

A close-up view of the hand graphic shown above shows the architectural display attachment hardware in combination with the stainless steel support rods.  The aluminum side grips slide on the steel rods to provide flexibility for positioning the acrylic graphic panels.  In the particular arrangement shown below, the adjacent panels are held with "twin grips" to minimize the needs for additional attachment hardware.

Below is another colorful example of a wall mural graphic installed using an architectural display system featuring stainless steel rods.  This was created for a middle school cafeteria to transition away from the "sterile" off-white look that was previously used on the walls.

In addition to using stainless steel rods in architectural display systems for graphics as shown in the two examples above, the system can be configured with shelving to display items in retail environments.

The stainless steel rods used in these architectural display systems are available in both 6mm and 10mm diameter thicknesses (for reference, 6mm is close to 1/4", and 10mm is a little larger than 3/8").

The rods can fasten to wall surfaces with display hardware including the three types shown below.  The wall mount display style on the left also shows the optional decorative cap on both 6mm and 10mm rod samples.

Architectural display system hardware for custom office signs also includes components we refer to as "standoffs" and "cable display" systems.  The attachment display hardware is typically made from aluminum with a clear finish, although other materials and finishes are available.

These display systems are attractive and create a polished, professional, and "upscale" look in lobbies, conference rooms, corporate hallways, and retail environments.  If you want to display photos, images, or display samples, architectural display systems are an effective and attractive approach.  If you're ready
