Maintenance should be involved in frame decision!
   
Reasons for and against Plastic Frame Reasons for and against Aluminum Frame
    + Cost is less - see price sheets     +Strongest, best looking most permanent attachment is by alum frame with angle brackets
    + You like the Black Color     + D-rings or L-brackets come standard with all boards
    + best on 9x12 and 12x18    + L-brackets are option on smaller boards
    - No hooks are built into board 
    --see Plastic Mounting you need to attach		    + Alum Frame(COAF) has changeable feature built in
    -  No tray available    + must be used on boards over 36" x 48"
    - not available on large boards    + Tray is optional  - but tray sticks out from wall  a "hazard"
     + Mounting of COAF and OAF
   

  We suggest you discuss mounting with your maintenance dept or have them call us!
