How to Install Stud Mounted Signs Using a Drill Pattern

Mounting Guides

  • Example of a drill pattern mounting template used to install building sign letters with stud mounting.

    Drill Pattern

    Our drill patterns are computer-generated tracings of your sign design with mounting hole locations. They are printed on durable, tear-resistant paper that is 54 inches tall and as wide as needed for your design.

  • A rigid stencil sign mounting guide with a hand lifting one letter out of the guide.

    Rigid Stencil Guide

    A rigid stencil guide is made by cutting out your sign's design from a piece of cardboard. This guide is then taped to the wall and each piece of your sign is set inside its corresponding cutout location to stick it to the wall.

  • A worker creating a spacing guide to assist with the installation of sign letters.

    Spacing Guide

    Our spacing guide is a 2 inch roll of paper with marks indicating the bottom portion of each sign element.
