1. What's the difference between custom and stock products?

Custom items are one-piece with a magnetic backing. They can include your contact info, photo, logos, etc. on a personalized design manufactured for you by us. Stock items are usually two pieces: An adhesive magnet attached to a UV gloss coated card. This is the less expensive option because you do the personalizing yourself by attaching your business card to the front of the adhesive magnet. Take a look at the difference.

2. What's the difference between your custom magnets styles?

On all custom magnets, we print your contact info on the front. But they do come in different sizes and styles. Take a look to see what the differences are. Not all custom magnet styles are available for each product. Prices vary, as well. So please check our website for more info.

3. Will magnets stick to stainless steel appliances?

Most common stainless steels are non-magnetic due to the addition of nickel. Because of this, magnets will not stick to stainless steel surfaces. Many appliances today are made to look like stainless steel but are actually a painted metal surface and magnets will stick. Also, common stainless steel appliances usually only have a steel door leaving the sides magnetic.

5. What is the difference between 15-mil and 30-mil? How thick are the custom-imprinted magnets?

One mil is one-thousandth of an inch, so 15-mil is fifteen-thousandths of an inch. 30 mil is twice as thick as that, and is heavier. The custom-imprinted magnets are 25-mil in total – 10-mil glossy stock glued and pressed onto 15-mil magnetic sheeting. Please note: There is almost no difference between the magnetic strength of a 15 and 30 mil magnet. Some people prefer to have a thicker magnet, because it feels more substantial. MOST people prefer thinner magnets, because they can be mailed for less postage than thicker magnets (30 mil magnets weigh 2x as much as 15 mil magnets).

6. How many sheets of paper are in the notepad magnets?

There are usually 20 sheets in a pad, give or take one either way. We do this to keep the piece below one ounce, so you can save on postage. If you want more, than take a look at our custom notepad magnets, which have a 40 sheet option.

7. Do you do Save-the-Date magnets?

At the moment, we do not do offer a standard Save-the-Date magnet design. However, you may check our Custom Magnet sizes and create a Save-The-Date Magnet the size of one of our stock Imprinted Magnets. A $50 design fee will cover the cost of House of Magnets to create a Save-the-Date design for you, or you may follow our art specifications and save yourself the $50 fee.

8. Can your magnets be used outside?

Our magnets are designed specifically for indoor use only, most commonly on refrigerators, file cabinets, and other metal surfaces. We do not recommend sticking them on cars or using them outdoors due to the nature of the materials, which are not weatherproof or sunproof. We suggest locating a vendor that offers magnets specifically for outdoor use.
