Chess Medal Hanger

Tournaments measured in hours, not minutes

Chess medals come from weekends spent in silent halls, from games that lasted five hours, from a rating that moved by twelve points. It is a competitive sport with almost no physical evidence — which makes the medals it does produce unusually worth keeping.

Junior chess in particular generates a lot: club, county, regional, national.

Size & capacity

Guide figures for medals on standard 25 mm ribbons. Hang them closer and you'll fit more.

Not sure which size?

Count the medals already in the box and add two years' worth. Most people buy too small. Between two widths, take the larger one — or the smaller one with an extra rail.

Why stainless steel, not painted sheet metal

• AISI 304 stainless steel (V2A / 1.4301), 2.5 mm at 35 and 45 cm, 3 mm at 60 and 75 cm — brushed, not painted
• Won't rust, chip or yellow, even after years in a hallway, garage or bathroom
• A continuous rail, not hooks: twelve hooks means twelve medals. On a continuous rail you hang them where you want, as many as fit
• Laser-cut, deburred, edges finished by hand

Mounting

Wall spacers, screws, plugs and a drilling template are included. The hanger stands off the wall, so ribbons slip over easily and the piece looks like it floats. Two holes, ten minutes.

When it fills up

It will fill up. The dimensions haven't changed in years — a second hanger of the same width sits flush against the first, even if there are years between them. Many customers end up with a wall rather than a single piece.
