Abstract

See full text

A picture frame hanging system includes a picture frame hanging bracket attachable to opposite, lateral or side picture frame portions. Each bracket includes a tortuous path for the picture hanging wire involving at least one end of the wire being bent about a radius that creates frictional forces between the wire and the bracket to sustain a tension representing the weight of the picture frame without disengaging from the brackets under load. The method involves attaching opposing brackets on the lateral sides of the picture frame and advancing the respective ends of the picture hanging wire through a tortuous path requiring the bending of the wire about a radius sufficiently small to ensure adequate frictional engagement between the wire and the brackets to ensure that the ends of the wire remain entrained within the brackets notwithstanding the tension forces that are applied to the wire when the frame is hung on a surface by means of the wire.
