I would like to put magnets on the back and mount the board to my fridge. Does any have experience with mounting the board this way?

I'm sorry, but I didn't even try to do this and do not know it it will work. I hung mine up by the brackets.

Haven't had experience with this mounting but I would think if anything, to use double sided tape to mount due to size and weight of it.

My husband says yes. Magnet is really strong so should be able to hold to the fridge (as long as your refrigerator is the right type of metal, i.e. not stainless steel). You'll have to tell us your long story some time.

Mine has been mounted to my fridge (through only its magnetic properties) for over a year. It works perfectly as intended.

I believe that the white spacer that is part of the magnet assembly is a critical part of the unit, and yes the magnet should be installed with the white plastic spacer mounted behind it. I'm no expert on magnetism, but I believe that part of the spacer's function is to separate it from what might be a steel mounting surface, and allow more of the magnet's magnetic field to be directed to bottle caps - in addition to placing the magnet out further so it may catch more falling caps. Mine is mounted on a steel refrigerator door, and as I've said in another review, I've had up to 65 caps collected before one fell off. Also, I painted my whole unit with Krylon Fusion (any-surface) paint to match the refrigerator door.

Interesting question. I went and try to see if one of my refrigerator magnet would stick, nothing happen. So, I would say no. You would probably have to modify the base with a magnet plate, which might work, but it would have to be industrial magnet to hold so much weight I would think? But a great idea.

a fridge magnet would not stick, so I'm guessing some heavy duty black plastic. It does have some weight to it and of course the inside components are metal. Hope this helps.

I am dubious, mostly because the surface is no more metallic than your fridge (maybe less so). I think the wallpaper would be too much of a barrier. Honestly, I'd hold a piece of the paper up to your fridge and see if a magnet will stick through it...if not, I think this won't work. On the other hand,I think you could definitely paint over this and maybe do a faux finish... that would maintain the magnetic properties, I think. Good luck!

Depends upon what you are mounting it to....if using the materials included to mount to a wall....easy. I wanted to put it on my refrigerator. No magnets came with it. I bought two 12-inch magnetic strips and glued them on the back with super glue. That was easy but it required a trip to the store. Looks great. Keep in mind that not all refrigerator fronts (ie stainless steel) are magnetic.

I would not advise attaching this to the side of your fridge. The weight of the metal plate, plus the weight of the glass jars would rip out the wall of the fridge. If you r fridge is metal, the jars will adhere directly to it. If not, then you need to find a wall space to attach it to. I do not think even the adhesive strips would be strong enough to hold over a long period of time, given the constant tug of removing jars from the metal sheet.

No. However, mine is affixed to the refrigerator which is, of course, a magnetic surface, so ZI can see no problems. The magnets are quite strong.

It requires two screws (included) to be mounted. If you don't mind drilling a hole into your fridge, or you can find a way to mount it without drilling a hole, sure it can be mounted on your fridge.

yes it attaches with magnets, the two round ends. The magnets have a decent power to them but have a tendency to slide down the fridge surface (with or without utensils on it). They hold firm but just slide down. To prevent this, I had gotten magnet tape that I cut and put right underneath the round ends so it would rest on it instead of sliding down. A small bit on either side, adhesive against the fridge. This little bit hold it firm. I chose this because in theory, it should be easier to remove/clean than other methods.

No, this doesn't have magnets to mount. It has a hole on each side and screws to attach it to a surface.

No, it can not. This magnetic knife holder is meant to be mounted to a vertical surface by the way of screws. The back is not magnetic so you will not be able to stick it to the side of a refrigerator.

If you want to do that I would probably attach it to cardboard or something else that is sturdy. I have put a quarter sheet on a magnetic board and put it on the refrigerator then I write down grocery items I need and take it with me when I go to the store

No, but it is a little heavy for a fridge unless you have really strong magnets and take the backing off...

Peel off the tape or stick the tape to the magnets and stick them on the back of the board. I didn't use mine because it wouldn't hold. You may want to get stronger magnets because they're weak and don't stick on the fridge good. I hung mine.
