How to Use a Square Standoff

The simple square standoff fastener is a hardware assembly that is used to create space between two objects. The standoff is available in a variety of sizes, shapes and materials. It is both decorative and functional.

Stainless steel standoffs are a popular choice. They are used as mounting hardware and as simple fasteners. Typically, a flat object such as a photograph, art print or sign is placed between two glass sheets, and a set of four square standoffs attaches the panes firmly to each other. Other standoffs are wall-mounted. These create an attractive, three-dimensional appearance that is clean and professional.

A square standoff set can also serve as legs to elevate an object when it is placed horizontally. The simple, practical and inexpensive square standoff always gives a classy and finished look to commercial signs and wall art. You can get the same modern, polished look by using standoff assemblies as part of your home decor.
