Plastic hook option on boards:
these are standard hanging clips supplied with plastic framed board.   They are not very rugged nor secure.  You will need  to create a more secure more permanent mounting method.  The included hooks with the plastic frames are only for alignment not mounting!!!!! 
In fact they are not supplied on any of plastic framed boards.  and will only be supplied if requested on 9"x12" and 12" x 18" units
 Plastic frame is .650" to .665" deep a little over 5/8" deep and covers about .3175" of steel surface on all 4 sides

Aluminum Frame Solution: 
Boards can be ordered from scratch with an aluminum frame with eyehooks as shown below.
We use the same printed steel put a hardboard back on it with an aluminum frame.
This option must be done at time of initial order and add both cost and lead time to boards.
If you get the standard cost effective plastic frame you will need to come up with a mounting solution.

 

   
Wood Frames - We can also for a large order supply wood frames in just about any style you could want.

Option- Buy Skin only all printed and mount it yourselves.  Skin only is very economical.
