How To Mount a Scratch Map
Mounting Options
Hang your scratch map on the wall with both the top and bottom edges held straight and level. This helps prevent it from curling after being rolled in its gift tube. Here are the mounting methods we’ve tested.
Aluminium Snap-on Bars
Our custom made aluminium bars offer an easy, reusable way to hang the map on a flat wall. The top bar has two sliding hooks for fastening it to the wall. You can also tie a string to the hooks for a less permanent hanging solution. The aluminium finish gives a modern look.
Wooden Map Bars
Our custom hand-made wooden map bars are a great accessory for hanging our A1 size maps on any flat wall. Attaching the map to the bars is very easy.
Mounting Tack Putty
Use a small amount of flexible mounting putty in each corner and along each side of the map. Then stick the map to a flat surface. We recommend these for non-permanent display and a minimalist look.
Frame the Map
You can achieve a custom design as there are countless framing options. A backer plywood or similar board is recommended.
Mount the Map To a Backer Board
Use a spray mount or a similar adhesive to mount the map permanently to a backer board. This will make scratching off really easy, just make sure the backer board is not textured. A thick cardboard will also work.
Velcro strip
We have also used a thin self-adhesive velcro strip for mounting maps on a flat wall surface. Usually 4 pieces (one in each corner) is enough as they provide a sufficient holding strength.
Pins
If you have a wall surface that won't be damaged by pins, it is certainly a low-budget solution to mount a map.
