Three Reasons to use Eagle Aluminum Z Clips

With a design based on the old “French cleat” concept, aluminum Z-Clips are a simple and reliable method for securing panels and other flat objects onto a vertical surface such as a wall. There are many reasons to use metal z cleats for home and office, but three reasons stand out that make Eagle-Clip Z clips the preferred panel mounting hardware for our customers.

Aluminum Z Clips are Budget Friendly

The number one reason customers choose Eagle Aluminum’s z clip hangers is to save money in their project budgets. Z fasteners offer an economical solution for installing cabinets, wood panels, artwork, and other heavy items because the aluminum clips are very affordable. Eagle-Clip z cleats are sold in bulk and can be used on a large scale. These metal hanging clips are not only inexpensive, but they also drastically reduce your installation expenses by avoiding costly on-the-job finishing. Many people are able to save around 50 percent on installation costs by using these heavy-duty clips for hanging wall panels, elevator panels, acoustic panels, picture frames and kitchen cabinets, paintings, signage, framed mirrors and display boards.

Z Clip Fasteners Work “Behind the Scenes”

Another reason to select z bar clips is they are discreet and enable the installation a wood wall panel, or other product, without screwing into the face of the object. Once they are fixed into place, the wall panel hangers remain concealed behind the finished panel. This is unlike other panel mounting hardware, where nuts and bolts are visible on the finished product. With no unattractive screws or nails disrupting the clean lines of the wood panels, architects and designers can confidently create impressive visual displays with a sleek, professional appearance.

Z Clip Hangers Conserve Your Valuable Time

A third reason to use aluminum z bar fasteners is they are easy to install, saving time over conventional methods. The concept is straightforward and uncomplicated- one metal panel clip rail is attached to the wall, and one – flipped the other way – is attached to the back of the object you want to hang. The Z Clip fasteners wedge together, thereby locking panels in position while the object is kept in place by gravity and its own weight. Another way the panel mounting clips save time is by allowing the installer to pre-finish the panels without time-consuming face nailing. The specially engineered Eagle-Clip is also a removable panel clip that allows for rapid installation and easy removal. If wall panels require repair or replacement, or when a design is updated for a new look, simply lift the panel to disengage the z clip hanger and remove it. It’s that easy! Now your base structure is ready to receive a new look with minimal time and effort.

With so many useful features that bring such significant benefits, it’s no wonder that aluminum panel clips are the fastest growing and easiest way to install wall panels, acoustic panels, cabinets, signs, and artwork on a wall or vertical surface.
