Types of Mounting

Concealed Mounting with Lugs

Concealed Mounting with Lugs

Lugs (extra pads) are cast onto the back of the plaque. These are drilled and tapped to accept a threaded rod.

Recommended Uses: Any type of brick, masonry or stone wall or surface.

Installation: Drill holes in the mounting surface slightly larger than the diameter of the lugs. Fill the mounting hole with quickset cement, silicone or epoxy. Set the plaque in place and allow the adhesive to set.

Concealed Mounting Drill & Tap Back of Plaque

Concealed Mounting Drill & Tap Back of Plaque

The back of the plaque is drilled and tapped to accept a threaded rod.

Recommended Uses: Any type of brick, masonry or stone wall or surface.

Installation: Drill holes in the mounting surface slightly larger than the diameter of the threaded rods. Fill the mounting hole with quickset cement, silicone or epoxy. Set the plaque in place and allow the adhesive to set.

Rosettes & Toggle Bolts

Rosettes & Toggle Bolts

Holes are drilled through the face of the plaque for toggle bolts. Toggle bolts are threaded machine screws 4″ to 6″ long with spring-loaded butterflies that fold up and pass through the holes in the wall.

Recommended Uses: For hollow tile, cement block, drywall or wood paneling over stud construction.

Installation: Using the plaque holes as a template, drill holes through the wall large enough to allow the butterfly assembly to pass through the hole. Insert each machine screw through the plaque and screw on each butterfly. Fold the Butterfly assemblies so they may be inserted through the holes in the wall until the wings spring open inside the hollow wall. Pull back on each screw head to press the butterfly against the inside wall. Turn the machine screws until they are secure. If rosette covers are provided, screw the rosettes into the toggle bolt heads.

Rosettes, Machine Screws and Expansion Sleeves

Rosettes, Machine Screws and Expansion Sleeves

Holes are drilled through the face of the bronze plaque for machine screws. Each expansion sleeve (lead anchor) has a threaded interior to house a machine screw. The lead anchor will expand when a screw is inserted and tightened.

Recommended Uses: Brick wall, stone wall, cement block, drywall or wood paneling over stud construction.

Installation: Using the plaque holes as a template, drill holes through the wall large enough to accept the lead anchor. Drill the holes deeply enough so the fully driven screw will not strike the back of the hole. Insert the expansion sleeves into the holes threaded ends first. Insert the machine screws through the plaque and tighten the screws into the expansion sleeves. If rosette covers are provided, screw rosettes into the machine screw heads.

Wood Screws

Wood Screws

Holes are drilled through the plaque and to accept a wood screw. For larger plaques the screws may be drilled and tapped to accept a rosette cover.

Recommended Uses: Wood walls, and plaster walls (small plaques only).

Using plaque holes as a template, drill holes in the wall. Insert the wood screws through the plaque holes and tighten the screws. If rosette covers are provided screw the rosettes into the wood screw head.
