How To Hang & Maintain Wood Signs

 

Hanging Position

You should hang the signs in places not out of sight, which means that you should hang them in eye-catching places. In particular, at parties, you should choose a position to hang where the sign is not less prominent among other decorations. It is best to hang the sign on the door or the wall. You should avoid placing the sign too high or in a place where it is easy to move; it will be hazardous if it falls. In addition, avoid hanging signs in places that are moldy and prone to water penetration.

Besides, depending on the sign’s placement, you can choose hanging hardware to keep your wooden board in place. If you hang signs inside your house, you should prepare hangers to hang signs on the wall or doors such as:

• D-ring
• Sawtooth
• Keyhole slot
• French cleat

If you hang your wooden sign outdoor, you will need:

• Wooden pole
• Eye-hooks
• Chains
• S hooks
• Quick Links

Each hanging hardware has its own size and usage. You should discover them first before using them.

How To Preserve Wood Signs

After use, if you want to store the signs in storage for reuse next year,  you should put them in a plastic bag with a desiccant pack; you can also use a vacuum bag if you have one. Then keep your signs in a dry place and avoid sunshine. If you want to continue hanging the sign as a decoration in your home, you can use varnish, oil paint, or varnish to increase the colorfastness of the sign.
