Bringing an element of substance and dimension, Thick PhotoPlaq presentations are more than an inch thick. Essentially a thickened Standard PhotoPlaq, the depth of the plaq can be viewed from any angle when displayed. The backside is hollowed out to reduce weight and conceal a convenient cleat hanging system, allowing the Thick PhotoPlaq to hang securely and flush against the wall.
A new and modern take on wall décor, PhotoPlaqs are made from premium eco-friendly, high-density fiber wood. The print is first laminated, and then adhered directly to an acid-free face of the wood. The edge is then beveled with your selected laminate color choice, and finally encapsulated on the back with a black laminate to provide a barrier against the elements. Each PhotoPlaq comes complete with a hanging system unique to each Plaq type.
PhotoPlaqs differ based on the thickness and/or hanging system of each Plaq type:
Thin: 1/8” thick, no hanging system
Standard: 3/8” thick, keyhole hanging system
Float: 3/8” thick, French cleat hanging system
Thick:1” thick, French cleat hanging system
Each PhotoPlaq comes with a hanging system unique to the Plaq type.
Keyhole Hanger:The Standard PhotoPlaq includes keyhole slots and screws for easy hanging. First, measure the area that you will be installing the presentation. While using a level, next place the screws (or if included, place the screw guides) in the keyhole slots and lightly make a dimple on the wall as to where the screws will go. Be sure to hold the Plaq and the screws (or screw guides) firmly so that they do not slip out of your hand. Drill the screws into the wall where the dimple imprints were just made, being sure to leave roughly 1/8” to 1/4″ between the wall and the base of the screw’s head. Finally, set the Plaq into position by placing the screws into the keyhole slot and sliding the artwork sideways until it hangs securely. Reposition or reinstall as needed.
French Cleat Hanger:Both the Float and Thick PhotoPlaq include a French Cleat hanging system and screws for quick and effortless hanging. First, measure the area that you will be installing the presentation. While using a level, place the wood hanger on the wall. Insert and tighten the screws so that the wood hanger remains snug on the wall. Once completed, simply place the Plaq onto the wood hanger so that it “locks” into place. Reposition or reinstall as needed.
