How to adhere 14mm PVC letters to artificial hedge wall

[Andrew Hodgson]

I have a hedge wall that I would like to adhere 14mm PVC letters. The easiest way to mount the letters would be applying them onto a clear sheet of Plexi. Then I would only have 4 mounting spots. Instead of using a clear sheet, how else can I easily mount the letters directly to the hedge wall.

This is how the back of the foliage looks.

This is a weird problem here haha.

I’d probably pin the letters, bend the pins from the back, and glue the shit out of it with some hot glue globs. That should keep the pins from moving around too much. Assuming the letters aren’t very heavy, this may work

This doesn’t seem like a long term install either way.

How in the world will someone be capable of trimming the hedge twice a year ??

I’m hoping it’s a faux foliage; I hadn’t considered it would be real

Is there a real wall behind the hedge? Could you mount the letters to the wall through the hedge?

We did this recently. The acrylic letters are from Gemini. I CNC cut a cloud backer from .5" PVC with minimal studs (3" I think) and mounted the acrylic to it. We made the drill pattern from coro. I thought the install would be a PITA, but my guys said it wasn't bad at all.

Kind of, the structure is made out of metal with these panels surrounding the whole thing. It's hard to see and get to the metal beams on the inside.

Yeah, our installs only last about 2-3 days.

Thanks for the example image. This is what we have done in the past. I was looking to do individual letters instead of keeping the letters in one piece like your example.
