The revolution in picture hanging

No more pictures tilting forward on cables, ropes, perlon cords and gallery rails! With tiltSTOP's innovative Bigfoot system, pictures and paintings finally hang perfectly flat on the wall. Every artwork is significantly enhanced by this improved hanging method!

Whether the painting is in an exhibition, a gallery, a doctor's office, or on your own wall at home: the ingenious cable deflector leads the cable to the picture's center of gravity, aligning the artwork parallel to the wall. The otherwise typical forward tilt is prevented. A dream come true for all artists, gallery owners, and individuals who can perfectly showcase their paintings with the Bigfoot system.

Rather light/normal: e.g. normal paint application with oil, acrylics, watercolour, gouache, pastels, pourings, few material layers (the artwork is relatively light for its size).

Rather heavy: e.g. very thick paint layers, mixed media, stone powders, rust effects, bitumen, mortar, cement, plaster, lots of texture paste, lots of resin, glazed/framed works, on wood etc. (the artwork is relatively heavy for its size).

If in doubt, choose “rather light/normal”.

What our customers say

"Finally, there's a product that prevents pictures from tipping forward on cables! The Bigfoot is perfect, especially for hanging my small wood panels or for large canvases! THANK YOU for this invention!"

Andrea Rozorea / Artist

"The Bigfoot really impressed me. The framed paintings we had screwed on the Bigfoots in the gallery hung parallel to the wall thanks to the cable deflection. Much better than before!"

Brigitte Scheytt / Galerie Scheytt

Bigfoot is 100% convincing. I'm so glad that there is now something that allows me to display my paintings on canvas and most of my object boxes flat on the wall, even though they are hanging on nylon cables. The pictures really don't tilt forward anymore! Great!

Verena Friedrich / Artist

"Many exhibition spaces are equipped with gallery rails, as damaging the walls is not allowed. Hanging pictures with rope or cable systems is the only way to display the works in these situations. Unfortunately, this doesn't do the artworks justice, as the forward tilt prevents optimal visual impact. Therefore, I very much welcome the new Bigfoot system, which allows the paintings to hang truly flush with the wall. This enables the artworks to have their full effect, which is also a huge advantage from a curatorial perspective!"

Dr. Ingrid Gardill / Curator

“I never would have thought that the difference between a picture hanging at an angle on a rope and a picture lying flat on the wall would be so big. The effect is completely different! Much more impressive! Also because the painting can now be illuminated much better.”

Thomas Jall

"I was always bothered by the tipping forward of the pictures hanging on the gallery rails in my home. I'm very glad that it's now possible to fix this. Thanks to the Bigfoot rope deflection , we've finally managed to prevent it from tilting. My pictures are now hanging parallel to the wall! I'm very happy about that!"

Kathrin Schmitz

“A good picture presentation is extremely important and is almost impossible to achieve with nylon cables and gallery rails! It's great that Bigfoot now prevents tilting. The paintings now hang flat on the wall. It's fantastic!”

Martina Kolle / Artist
