Sk8ologySkateboard Deck Display Wall Mount Hanger Rack (100)

The product doesn't fit the standard sized board I want to display. The solution they offer is to drill out the holes in the board to make it fit better, which damages the art. This is not an option on the limited edition board I would like to display, and would never be acceptable when displaying any other type of art.

There is a reason why the instruction video shows the re-drilling of the deck. It's because the hardware supplied is not a correct fit. While your experience may vary, in general, most skateboard decks come pre-drilled at 3/16" diameter holes. Most, not all. The supplied T-nuts are almost a full 1/32" larger in external diameter, which would require you to re-drill your prized collectible, autographed or limited art deck. Ask yourself why would you drill out your valuable decks to accommodate an off the shelf T-bolt that can be found at your hardware store for pennies? In the instruction video it is stated and even laid out in giant bold graphics, "Will not affect your deck's value or appearance in any way!" Oh really? Who are you? So, being that I was eager to get my beautiful triptych on the wall, and because I wanted that 'floating' appearance, I used a micro lathe and drill press to reduce the diameter of each T-nut down to a 3/16" external diameter. It was a lot of time and effort for the money invested. The end result was successful, but per my title, not the best solution for the application.

looking forward to getting more sk8ology mounts

I bought these for my husband to hang a bunch of his retro skateboards on the wall in the man cave. They work great and look very nice, but be advised that if you're hanging horizontally, you'll need two sets and it's REALLY hard to get the holes just right to be level. Best for vertical hanging.

These work well for hanging boards, but the finish on the metal pieces is not great. I could tell there had been no QC on the parts, such as shavings removed or making sure there were no defects. I had to use pliers to get a few of the black pieces on to hold the boards in place (ordered 3 mounts). Does the job but not without some difficulty. I found the price to be pretty high considering how basic the hardware is and the poor manufacturing quality, but appreciated that there was a discount for buying more at once on this listing.Note: if you want to mount a deck horizontally, you will need 2 mounts and some precision measuring. Plan accordingly!

I was apprehensive ordering these as I saw so many people said they drilled out their decks because the bolts didn't line up. I would never do that, so I was nervous. Not the case with mine, thankfully. Either they fixed that issue or people were mounting the deck sideways and not simply turning the mount to match and consequently the holes didn't match. These are not fancy at all and honestly they don't need to be. $5 would be a better deal, but these are the cheapest ones I've found that are simple to use and do what they need to do.

It didn't fit, so I had to drill the deck as it says to. Chipped the wood on insertion of the peg after drilling, very small chip but looks like crap on a custom painted board. It's a good idea, just needs a better tip to hold the deck so you don't have to drill. Maybe spring cuts in a steel tip. I also had to shorten the screws so it's closer to the wall. This setup is cheap, and it works. But there's better mounts out there. You can make this for probably $2 if you want to take the time to cut a dowel in half and drill a few holes.

Love these guys, best value, does what you want, and clean look. On their site for instructions they bring up the "floating" options, where you just jam the board on it. This requires you to make your decks holes larger by drilling... Don't do this! One, now I feel my boards (did this on 2 before stopping) feel damaged, not sure how well the trucks will go on if I ever planed on using these. Also they don't feel as secure just floating, especially since I have these over my front door and vibrations from the door closing can knock them off. Just use the lock method, just don't over tighten so the nuts don't damage the board.
