Mount with small spots of silicon adhesive directly to a flat dry surface. This option can be a bit messy and care must be taken to ensure that silicon doesn't squeeze out from the sides. Pinhead amounts should be used, dotted around the back surface in strategic locations. Masking tape will be needed to hold the letters in place while the silicon dries. A good alternative is to use some double stick tape in places that will do the initial holding while the silicon sets. |

Not many companies offer this but its an excellent way to mount letters indoors where you may later want to remove them for painting the wall or to relocate. With this mount and a mounting pattern, all you do is run drywall screws into the wall, deep enough so their heads protrude, then locate the heads over the large keyhole opening, push toward the wall and pull down to lock in place. No drilling, no glue, and easily removable for painting or moving. Requires fonts large enough and thick enough to accommodate the depth of the keyhole and the
size of its opening. Usually 6" and above and 3/8" or more thick. |

High quality, general purpose double sided tape makes mounting a breeze. Not recommended outside but can be used outside if silicon caulk is used between the tape strips. |

On thinner letters up to 1/4" thick, we have to glue on threaded stud blocks to accept all threaded rod (studs). In general this will stand the letters off the wall about 1/4" to 1/2" depending on the letter size. Mounting this type of letter requires drilling the wall or mounting surface to accept the metal studs. A mounting pattern is highly recommended to locate the correct places to drill. Once the holes are drilled, screw studs into the stud blocks being careful not to over tighten, then fill the holes with silicon caulk, coat the studs and push the assembly into the wall up to where the stud block meets the wall surface. |
 |
On thicker letters, 3/8" and 1/2", we can drill and tap the backs of the letters to accept the threaded rods (studs). Mounting is the same as for the stud boss above except that the studs go all the way into the wall for a flush mount. |
| Mirror Acrylic Sign Letters |
|
Mirror acrylic sign letters, numbers and logos are highly decorative display letters.
Ideal for foyers, reception areas, waiting rooms, employee recognition walls and many other applications, they can also be very easy to mount and remove for cleaning and when you want to change the wall color. Alongside of more traditional mounting methods such as stud mounts and double side tapes, we offer a keyhole mounting method that allows you to hang your letters on drywall screws, hidden from view. Using this method avoids the use of messy glues and drilling holes into walls. A keyhole mount is as easy as hanging a picture and with our full size mounting pattern to guide you, you won't have to worry about getting the letters spaced or correctly oriented, everything is done for you.
All mirror acrylic sign letters greater than 1/8" thick are laminated to a thicker black acrylic base to give it depth. There are two reasons for this, the most important is that the mirror coating on the back of the letter is susceptible to damage from glues and should only be mounted with double side tape. The other reason is that Mirror acrylic is only made in 1/8" thick material. Removal of 1/8" thick acrylic from a previous installation will damage the mirror coating and render the letters unusable. |
Mirror acrylic sign letters come in four colors, silver, the traditional mirror color the same as glass mirrors. Red Mirror, Gold Mirror and Purple Mirror sign letters, offer a diversion from the traditional for those that need something off the beaten track
Do not confuse mirror acrylic letters with our more popular polished metal letters. These letters are true mirrors and do not convey the look of metal. |
