Franklin Bronze Plaques is one of only a few plaque retailers in the United States that produces, on site, most of the products they sell. When you call Franklin Bronze Plaques, you are speaking directly to the people responsible for providing your quote and creating your design, as well as casting, finishing, inspecting and shipping your plaque.

While other plaque retailers offer to undercut our pricing or lure you in with a "quick" turnaround, we provide a top quality product with unmatched customer service. Experience our hassle-free, no worry process for yourself.

Special Services For You:

We offer expedited production and shipping services for those with short deadlines. Standard delivery is 4 - 6 weeks after final layout approval, depending on the size and complexity of the piece. However, if you find yourself in a time-crunch, we can expedite for shipping anywhere from five to 15 production days after your layout has been approved (certain restrictions apply). We also offer expedited shipping services through UPS and FedEx.

If expedited services are beyond your budget, we also offer presentation pieces. This is simply a full-color full-size print of your approved lay-out mounted on a piece of foam board. These are much more cost effective than expedited production/shipping, and are a nice alternative for presentation at any event.

Ordering Made Simple:

We make ordering easy. Simply call, fax or e-mail us with the text and/or images to be included in your lay-out, along with the other pertinent details (desired size, budget, background finish and mounting surface). If you're unsure of the specifics, we'll guide you through the process, offering suggestions and/or solutions.

Payment is also made easy by offering several different options. We accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express, as well as payment by check. We also accept fully executed purchase orders from government agencies, school districts and municipalities.
