FAQs

We’re a small company and have time to focus on every plaque from conception to delivery.

Our overheads are low so our prices are very competitive

We can email you a no-obligation mock-up and quote based on a simple description.

We love what we do.

As a guide, a 300mm x 200mm plaque will cost $850.00. While some companies will charge you for extra lines of text and custom graphics, we won’t. A ceramic photo attachment, cast image (where the photo is cast as part of the plaque) or multiple colours will increase the price.

Yes, however we will need to see permission which can be obtained via email at:

Generally about 6 to 8 weeks. We do offer a fast turnaround option of 11 days for an extra fee.

You could also give us a rough description i.e. “I’d like a 380mm wide by 280mm high plaque for my family member who recently passed, (name and dates), they liked gardening and golf. We’d also like this verse included.

You’re welcome to send us a sketch, or a picture of something you like or reference plaques or parts from this website.

Or you could book an appointment to come into our home based office.

We’re flexible enough to work with you in a way that you’re comfortable with.

 

Assuming you’re the grantee of the plot, we need to know any size specifications and other regulations which need to be adhered to. We can find out from the cemetery on your behalf if you let us know the name of the cemetery, the deceased and the section/plot number.

The plaque can be mounted on granite if necessary and delivered to a monumental mason for installation. Some cemeteries are stricter than others so its necessary to know their regulations before we start.

Yes, Although we can edit the photo to a certain degree, bigger and clearer photos (300 DPI) will work better for colour ceramic attachments.

We can also cast a photo directly onto the plaque if the lighting is neutral and isn’t dark on one side, passport photos are a good example of neutral lighting. This will cost extra 

A courier will come to your door and can leave it in a specified area or somewhere they consider safe. We’ll email you a tracking code when its on the way.

Brass is generally more of a gold colour and more suited to decorative items because it is also more malleable. Bronze is more durable than brass and will last longer.

The thickness of a bronze plaque will be calculated depending on the size. Smaller plaques will be 3mm thick whereas large plaques would be 8mm thick.

Yes, the first proof (mock-up) is free and carries no obligation. For specifically detailed plaques that require custom artwork, extra charges may apply but the first proof is usually a good start point.

About

BPO Marco Jansen
Marco Jansen, Bronze Plaques Oz.

Hello, I’m Marco, thanks for visiting.

I have more than 20 years experience as a graphic artist/designer. For the last 6 years I’ve worked in a memorial design capacity which eventually led me to focus on bronze plaques. I strongly believe that bronze is the best possible option for memorialisation and many other purposes. A plaque cast in bronze could potentially last thousands of years so I keep that in mind while designing, wondering what someone may make of it a thousand years from now.
