My customer wants a 4' x 5' sign attached to a chain link fence. It is made with Alumalite. Any type of fastener that would be slick for doing this?

1" x 6" pieces of aluminum with a hole drilled in the middle. 3 across the top and 3 across the bottom. Use them on the other side of the chain link side like washers.

At the track we just use 3/8" or 1/2" wire ties,.... drill a 1/2" hole in each corner and zip tie them up in less than 4 minutes,...it works and the ties are strong enough to keep the redneks from stealing the signs and taking them home as souvenirs...we tried smaller ties and they tend to get cut with a pocket knife and the signs get gone,...

I use a 4" x 4" metal junction box cover plate on the back side, like a washer. looks great on larger signs like yours.

Grimco has (or had) a fence bracket. Can't remember if the theft-resistant hardware was part of it or seperate.

I usually use "hog rings" on chainlink. They are easy for an install,...and it takes some effort for removal.
