An aluminum painting is much more than just a wall decoration: it is a modern and durable design piece that brings elegance and personality to an interior. But to fully enjoy its beauty and guarantee its longevity, two aspects are essential: proper maintenance and secure mounting .
At Kadris , we choose aluminum for our artwork because it combines strength, lightness, and a premium finish . Here are our practical tips for installing and preserving your paintings in the best conditions.
1. Maintenance of an aluminum painting
Aluminum is a robust and easy-to-use material, but with a little care, it can maintain its shine over time.
✔️ Regular cleaning
-
Use a soft, dry cloth (preferably microfiber) to remove dust.
-
Gently pass over the surface without pressing, to avoid any micro-scratches.
✔️ Deep cleaning
-
If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with clean water.
-
Absolutely avoid abrasive products, solvents or chemical cleaners which could alter the colors or finish.
-
Always dry immediately after cleaning.
✔️ Precautions for use
-
Do not place the painting in direct sunlight for a long time, to avoid gradual discoloration (even if aluminum is more resistant than paper or canvas).
-
Avoid environments that are too humid (unventilated bathroom, damp cellar).
With these simple steps, your aluminum board will keep its impeccable visual appearance for many years.
2. How to properly fix an aluminum board
Another major advantage of aluminum is its lightness , which makes it much easier to fix to the wall. However, to ensure a stable and secure installation, here are our recommendations.
✔️ Kadris fastening systems
At Kadris, each painting is delivered with a suitable and discreet fixing system . This allows:
-
Easy installation, even for DIY novices.
-
A solid hold, preventing any risk of falling.
-
An invisible attachment, for a perfect aesthetic result.
✔️ Recommended fixing steps
-
Measure and mark the desired location on the wall.
-
Drill and install anchors suitable for the type of wall (placo, concrete, brick).
-
Screw in the provided hooks or use a hanging rail if necessary.
-
Hang the painting and check that it is straight using a level.
✔️ Practical advice
-
For large formats, ask a second person for help when installing.
-
If you are renting and do not want to drill into the walls, you can opt for reinforced adhesive hooks (Command™ type), ensuring that they can support the weight of the painting.
3. Where to install an aluminum board?
