Monarch Metal FAQ Video Transcript

Hi, everyone. Monarch Mitch with Monarch Metal Fabrication here. Going over the frequently asked questions about our Z clips.

Z Clips are a clip and rail system used to hang interior wall panels, cabinetry, artwork, mirrors, and just about anything that needs a concealed hanging system.

Just install the rails to any substrate, attach the corresponding clips to your subpanel, and they lock together.

Monarch Z clips are made from 6063 T6 aluminum and are very strong. How much weight can z clips hold? Their weight capacity depends on your entire system, including the strength of your fasteners, substrate, and what you’re mounting. Independent lab tests found fasteners fail before z clip distortion.

Now, of course, there are different sizes and shapes, which primarily vary in two dimensions: projection (or how far off the substrate your item will hang), and lift-off (or how far you have to lift the clip to engage or disengage the rail). But if you have any questions at all about which z clip is right for you, just give us a call and we’ll help you right away.

Also important to note, we stock rails in 6 or 12 foot lengths and with or without pre-punched holes. Which are 8 inches on center, and 0.203 inches in diameter to accommodate number 8 screws.

Custom lengths and hole diameters can be made to custom fit your project, and stock sizes ship the same day or next business day. And everything is proudly made in the USA.

And last but not least, we want you to request a sample from us. There’s nothing that will replace you holding these clips in your hands to see if they are the right fit for you and your project, and we are happy to send you samples for free. Simply fill out our free sample form to request your sample and we look forward to helping you soon.

Thanks again, from Monarch Metal.
