Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the shovel and what is it made from?
The shovel is 40 inches long and pairs polished chrome plated metal with a lacquered ash wood handle. It is a full size, classically styled shovel rather than a shortened display piece.
Where does the personalized plate go on the shovel?
You choose between a 4 inch by 1.5 inch plate on the handle or a 6 inch by 1.5 inch plate on the curved neck of the shovel. Both positions stay visible while the shovel is being held for photos.
What does it cost to add a printed or laser engraved plate?
Standard plate setup runs 30.00 with a logo or 20.00 for straight copy, then the running charge is 8.00 each printed or 10.00 each laser engraved. Additional charges may apply depending on how the plate is set up.
Can each person at the ceremony get their own name?
Yes. Adding individual names to a plate costs 4.00 each on top of the plate charge, so every executive, board member or partner holding a shovel can have their own name in the photo.
Can the plate be printed in more than one color?
Yes. A second or additional color adds a 20.00 setup plus a running charge of 1.00 per color, per plate. That is on top of the standard printed plate charge already listed for the job.
What are the laser engraved plate options?
Laser engraved plates come as a black plate with silver copy or a silver plate with black copy. That version carries a 40.00 setup charge and a price of 12.00 per plate, and blank plates are available at 1.50 each.
Are these used for groundbreaking ceremonies?
Yes, this is a groundbreaking ceremony shovel. The chrome plated finish photographs brightly outdoors, the ash handle gives it full working length, and the personalized plate records the project, the date or the people turning the first soil.
