Displaying Your Name Plates

While name plates are common in most workplaces, we all need them for different reasons. And, many of us have a desk or cubicle at work, so it’s easy to display that coveted piece of personal identification. And while most name plates have a name and title, some are used for other reasons around the office.

Name plates easily sit on a corner or small portion of your desk.

Use a traditional metal desk holder for your plastic or metal engraved name plate. These sit conveniently on the corner of any desk so that they are visible to passersby. Another option is to choose an acrylic desk block or executive desk wedge. These options, while a little less traditional, actually offer an upgrade to your name plate look.

Another option for a desk top is the plastic desk base. This classy item fits most designs and still allow the nameplate to sit on the corner of your desk comfortably. Or, be a little less traditional and set it on your computer monitor or tower.

Attach name plates to the front of a desk.

Using either a wall mount or adhesive, attach the plate on the front of your desk. This idea is perfect for the current trend of standing desks. That way, no matter the height of your desk, your name plate will always be visible. Choose from Velcro, magnets or double-sided tape to accomplish this simple, yet effective presentation.

Using an adhesive also enables you to attach name plates to other objects on or near your desk. Use the double-sided tape to mount the plate to stacking desk trays or a white board.

Mount the plate on a wall or door of your office or cubicle.

From Contemporary Name Plates to traditional engraved name plates, one of the most popular ways to display room names and numbers and directions is to hang them on the wall. Accomplish this easily by using a wall mount or an adhesive. We also offer partition pins to hang your plate on the side of your cubicle conveniently.

Maybe you need to label a section of a wall for different types of forms? Simply attach this useful item next to the section, and just like that you’re done! And everyone in the office can see what they need and how easy it is to get it.

What creative way do you display your name plates?

Do you have yours hanging from the ceiling? Maybe it’s secured to your desk in a different way. Or is it in the hallway outside your office? We want to hear how you have your name plate displayed!

  2. Hi,
    Office debate ..LOL
    We have cubicles of 3 people.
    We have name tags displayed as you approach the cubicle.
    In what order should the name plates be in??
    first person, his plate would be on top ?
    second person, obviously in the middle
    last person in the row, on bottom ?

    Thank you
    Best regards

    1. Hello, Don! Thank you for your interesting question. While we only approve of everyone having the corner office with a view (LOL), we understand your quandary. The short answer is that you would arrange (or stack) the name plates according to the direction/orientation the employees are sitting. However, you could use this opportunity to get creative! How about displaying them in order of tenure? Or, stack them according to job title (did you include that information on the name plates?). Only as a last resort do we suggest that you have the employees fight for their position! LOL
