Install Method & Accessories For Non Kit Purchases
For our customers who are familiar with letter sizes,
spacing requirements, and installation procedures, we provide the option
to purchase our products as individual pieces or as a collection of
various components. Your non-kit order will always include your
requested numbers or letters, their mounting hardware, and any specified
standoff spacers. In addition, you may order, at additional
cost, the following:
1. Needed Accessories
If you purchase
our numbers or letters as individual pieces (Non Kit), and wish to
install them on a wall, you will typically need adhesive and a mounting
pattern. You may, using the link below, order either an Accurate Image
or a factory mounting template and/or adhesive for your installation.
Adhesive: Our adhesive
is a silicone adhesive commonly used by the sign industry for such
installation. The adhesive is available in two sizes: a 2.8 oz squeeze
tube recommended for up to 4 numbers or letters; and a 10 oz push tube
(requires a caulking gun) recommended for up to 15 numbers or letters.
Factory Template: Our non-kit
factory mounting templates are created by the folks at our
foundry. They lay the completed numbers or letters out on a heavy
sheet of mounting-pattern paper and draw an outline around the numbers
or letters. Then, within the outline, they indicate the drill points
for the studs for each number or letter. Note: We cannot create a
mounting template once your pieces have left our shop. If you want an
installation template after you have received your pieces, please call
us for the proper procedure. Reminder: The factory
template is created without our professional graphic input and without
your preview. We cannot guarantee that the factory template will meet
your spacing requirements.
Accurate Image Template: The factory mounting
templates are to
be distinguished from Accurate Image's mounting templates which are created by
us using a computer graphics program to achieve professional
spacing (kerning). If you purchase an Accurate Image template either
alone or as part of your
Kit purchase, we send the template to you via a digital drawing for
your approval. Then, the foundry plots this approved digital drawing so that the
numbers and letters match your approved spacing.

2. Stud Mounting Procedure
For most applications involving small to medium-sized
pieces (2" to 15"), our products may be installed with a few common tools and supplies: (a) masking tape, (b) a hand drill (roto-hammer for masonry surfaces), and (c) a level.
Sizes larger than 16" may require additional support from the back side
of the piece. Following is the suggested procedure for small to
medium-sized pieces:
