Below are different methods for installing bronze plaques. Read to find out which type of installation
best meets your needs.

Bronze plaques are the choice for interior as well as exterior applications. Although the finish of bronze
will naturally patina over time, the material itself will not deteriorate. Objects made from bronze have
been found submerged in seawater for over 3000 years still in excellent condition.

Bosses and Studs (BS)

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

Flat-backed plates (generally, smaller sizes) are drilled & tapped for studs without bosses on the back.


Recommended Uses
For concealed, permanent mounting to:

Brick walls
Stone walls
Masonry surfaces
Installation
Drill holes in the mounting surface slightly larger than the diameter of the studs. Fill mounting holes
with silicone, epoxy or quickset cement. Set into the holes, and allow the adhesive to cure.

Rosettes and Toggles (RT)


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 wall holes.  

Recommended Uses
For semi-permanent mounting to:

Hollow tile
Cement block
Drywall
Wood paneling over stud construction

Installation
Using the plaque holes as a template, drill holes through the wall large enough to accommodate the
butterfly assembly. Insert each machine screw through the plaque and screw on each butterfly. Fold
the butterfly assemblies and insert them through holes until wings spring open inside the hollow wall.
Pull back on each screw head to press the butterfly against the inside wall. Turn each machine screw,
first by hand, then with a screwdriver.

If rosette covers are provided, screw rosettes into the toggle bolt heads.

Rosettes, Machine Screws
and Expansion Sleeves (RM)

Holes are drilled through the face of the plaque for machine screws. Each metal expansion sleeve (or
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
For semi-permanent mounting to:

Brick walls
Stone walls
Masonry surfaces
Installation
Using the plaque holes as a template, drill holes into the wall large enough to accept the lead anchor.
Drill deep enough so the fully driven screw won't strike the back of the hole.

Insert expansion sleeves into holes, threaded cones first. Using a metal setting tool, strike tool with
hammer to drive sleeve into each hole. Insert each machine screw through the plaque and tighten
screws into expansion sleeves with a screwdriver.

If rosette covers are provided, screw rosettes into the machine screw heads.

Wood Screws (WS)

Holes are drilled through the plaque and countersunk to accept a flat head wood screw. Larger sized
wood screws, #14 or #16, have the heads drilled and tapped to accept a rosette cover.
