Dado Picture Rails
Wooden dado picture rails are a classic and practical way to elevate your interior walls. Popular in period properties and traditional-style homes, these mouldings are fitted horizontally along the wall and serve different purposes depending on their height. A dado rail is positioned lower, protecting your walls from scuffs, marks, and furniture damage. A picture rail is fitted closer to the ceiling, traditionally used to hang artwork without drilling into the wall — perfect for preserving your plasterwork.
Whether you're restoring a period house or adding heritage charm to a modern interior, our collection of wooden dado picture rails offers the ideal finishing touch. Crafted from premium Grade AA Radiata Pine, these rails combine durability with a smooth surface that’s perfect for painting. Each profile is supplied with two coats of primer, ready for your chosen topcoat.
Choose from four elegant profiles inspired by historical design, spanning Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian and early modern styles. When paired with our picture rail hooks, chandelier chains, or Perlon suspenders, they create a flexible, non-invasive picture hanging system that’s as functional as it is beautiful.
Enhance your interiors with a wooden dado picture rail – combining timeless detail, wall protection, and picture hanging flexibility in one smart, stylish solution.
