What You'll Need
• GLUE: The glue can be found in your package in a brown paper bag.
• 2 STEEL BARS: These will be in the same brown paper bag as the glue.
• MARKER PEN: Or anything that will leave a dot on your wall that you can see.
• ELECTRIC DRILL: Charge it up and pop in a 3mm drill bit.
STEP 01
Glue the Steel Bars
The first step is to glue all the steel bars you've received with your sign into the back of your sign.
1 | Place a towel or cloth down on a flat surface such as a table and lay your sign face-down on it (this will avoid accidental scratching on both the table and/or sign).
2 | Find all your steel bars (we usually provide two, unless your sign is big; in which case we'd provide four) and glue. These will be found in your package, wrapped up in a white paper bag.
3 | Fill up all the holes found in the back of your sign. Once, filled up, insert all the rods. Don't worry if some glue gets pushed out. Leave the rods to set in place for 12 hours.
STEP 02
Find the Spot
The second step is to drill the wall holes where you want your new sign to hang. This will require an electric drill.
Don't do this step until the steel bars are set into your sign.
1 | Grab a pen or anything that will leave a mark on your wall.
2 | Have your sign and pen to hand. Align the sign up to the wall in the position you'd like it to hang, with the steel bars touching the wall.
3 | With your pen, mark out where the steel rods touch the wall. This is where you will drill the holes. Put your sign down carefully.
4 | Put a 3mm drill bit into an electric drill and drill approx. 50mm into the wall. Try not to drill deeper than that.
STEP 03
Fill the Wall Holes
We're almost done!
1 | Lastly, get the glue you used to adhere the steel bars into the sign and fill up all the wall holes. You need to be quick as the glue will start to come back out.
2 | Get your sign and insert all the steel bars into their respective holes.
3 | Hold the sign in place for about 2-3 minutes, then you can let go and leave to set in place. The glue will take about 12 hours to harden.
4 | Done!
