We offer the following plaque mounting solutions. Please let us know what type of material you plan on attaching the bronze plaque to. Below are concrete, drywall, and wood mounting solutions. For larger bronze plaques, we suggest using expansion sleeves.
Each plaque will include the requested mounting hardware.
Mounting Hardware Options
Concrete & Masonry — Front Mount (Visible)
The head of the bolt is countersunk to be flush with the surface of the plaque and finished with the same color and patina, so the hardware is barely visible.
Concrete & Masonry — Blind Mount (Hidden)
Holes are drilled into concrete or masonry and filled with epoxy for a blind mounting application. Threaded studs are welded to the back of the plaque.
Drywall — Front Mount (Visible)
Toggle bolts open behind drywall to distribute weight. The head of the bolt is countersunk and finished in the same color as the plaque.
Wood — Front Mount (Visible)
Wood screws thread directly into a wood substrate. The head of the screw is countersunk and finished in the same color as the plaque.
Which Mounting Hardware Should I Choose?
- Exterior brick, stone, or concrete: Expansion sleeves or blind-mount studs with epoxy.
- Interior drywall: Toggle bolts (or French cleats for very large plaques).
- Wood walls or wood-framed exteriors: Stainless steel wood screws.
- Large or heavy plaques (over 20 lbs): Expansion sleeves regardless of substrate.
- Outdoor weathering concerns: Always stainless steel or cast bronze hardware to prevent corrosion streaks.
If you’re unsure which option to choose, send us a photo of your installation surface when you request a quote. We’ll recommend the right hardware and ship it with your plaque.
