I have a couple of plastic signs that a customer would like put on a glass door.
Would I just use my normal double stick tape that I use for most plastic signs?
They asked if silicone would work on glass...???
Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Linda

Double stick tape is fine. It's also nice to make a piece to go on the other side of the glass to cover the piece and the tape.

Yes, I installed several hundred ADA signs on glass and then put blank black 1/16" ABS the same size on the other side to hide the ugly strips of tape. They do have a decent black 1" DS tape (Cheap) at Harbor Fright that works fine for this. No need to waste expesnive 3M VHB on glass and glossy plastic.

Thank you Scott and Joe...that is what I thought I would do...with the extra piece.

There are a few other alternatives...

Suction cups work well. You can also use lamination tape to cover the whole backside of the plastic which has a benign look to it. Another option is integrating ball chain to hang from a point above.
