Rail systems offer you the possibility of using pin boards, magnetic boards and other similar objects in a much more flexible way. Thanks to a rail system you will no longer need to mount your board to a wall and can easily move and position your pin board horizontally and vertically as you see fit. This adds a bit more user friendliness to the boards, as well as not needing to drill holes in your walls, and making more efficient use of your wall space by hanging multiple objects off of the rail system.

If you choose to make use of a rail system for your pin board you have the option of either a ceiling or wall rail system. With the wall rail system you will be able to move your pin board horizontally along a wall and remains stable during use. This system is mostly used for mid-sized to large format boards. With the ceiling system you will be able to adjust the height of the board as well as its horizontal position. The board, however, will be somewhat unstable during use and the cords used to suspend your board will be rather visible. This system is mostly used with the smaller format boards.
