Pin Mount (PIN)
It is necessary for pins to be in a vertical position in order to be mounted
properly to fabric panels (see Fig. 1). The pins swing freely from side to
side, but must always remain parallel to the holder ends.
DO NOT PULL PINS OUTWARD, as they may break off or become
separated from holder (see Fig. 2).
When installing, place holder at a slight angle and insert pins into fabric
panel (see Fig. 3).
When removing, DO NOT PULL OUT AT A SEVERE ANGLE, as the pins
may break off or the fabric may be damaged (see Fig. 4). For correct
removal, simply lift holder straight up (see Fig. 5).

Panel Clip Attachment
Vinyl Tape
If your sign holder was supplied with Vinyl Tape (VT) mounting, strips of
double-sided tapes are already affixed to the back side.
As with all adhesives, the user must insure the surface to which the sigh
holder is to be mounted is Clean, Dry and free from any form of grease,
oil or silicones. If the sigh holder is to be affixed to a wood, the surface
must have been sealed with a varnish or lacquer prior to attachment.
Textured wall covering and some vinyl wall covering may reject
double-sided tape. The sigh holder may appear to adhere initially, but
may release shortly thereafter. For this reason, it is advisable to perform
a test with a single sign holder, prior to installing all holders. Usually 24
hours is sufficient to determine if tape and wall covering are compatible.
If the wall covering rejects the tape, a Silicone Adhesive, such as such
as Worksite® clear silicone sealan can be used to supplement the tape,
as the tape will hold the sign holder in place until the silicone adhesive
sets up. Again, a test for suitability with a single sign is advisable.
VERY IMPORTANT - READ BEFORE PROCEEDING.

Mechanical Fasteners
While double sided tapes are widely used in place of mechanical
fasteners, some conditions may warrant the use of screws and other type
fasteners. Because of the wide range of mounting surfaces, Mechanical
Fasteners are never included. A broad range of suitable fasteners can
usually be found locally.
