How to Hang a Jersey Display Case & Choose the Right Frame Material

by Zack Johnson 15 Jul 2025

Whether you’re showing off a signed NBA jersey or preserving a piece of your own athletic history, a jersey display case makes all the difference. But before you mount it on the wall or pick between frame styles, there are a few things worth knowing. Let’s break down the most common questions collectors ask: how to hang a jersey frame, and how to choose between wood and acrylic display cases.

🛠️ How Do You Hang a Jersey Display Case on the Wall?

A jersey display case is more than just décor—it’s a protective showcase. That’s why mounting it securely and at the right height matters.

✅ Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Find the studs in your wall
Use a stud finder to locate the most secure anchor points. Jersey frames, especially those with solid wood or thick acrylic, can be heavy.

2. Mark your mounting points
Use a level and tape measure to make sure your display hangs straight. Most high-quality cases—like the JupDec Jersey Frame Display Case—come with wall-mount brackets pre-installed or include hardware.

3. Use wall anchors if needed
If you can’t find studs, use heavy-duty drywall anchors rated for at least 20–30 lbs. This ensures the frame stays secure over time.

4. Mount and level
Hang the case and double-check with a level. If your case has risers or a door, make sure it opens and closes without tilting.

Tip: If you're displaying an autographed jersey, consider keeping it away from direct sunlight—even with UV protection.

🪵 Acrylic vs. Wood: Which Jersey Display Case Is Right for You?

Choosing between acrylic and wood-framed jersey display cases comes down to style, durability, and where you’ll place it.

🟤 Wood Frame: Timeless, Traditional

  • Pros: Elegant, classic look that fits well in home offices, dens, or sports bars.

  • Best for: Framed team collections, vintage jerseys, or more formal settings.

  • Look for: A sturdy backing, secure hinges, and anti-dust seals.

🔲 Acrylic Display Case: Sleek & Modern

  • Pros: Lightweight, clear from all angles, and often UV-protected. The JupDec Jersey Frame Display Case, for example, uses thick acrylic for durability while still offering full visibility.

  • Best for: Signed jerseys, modern sports memorabilia, minimalist rooms.

  • Added bonus: Acrylic cases are often easier to clean and safer in high-traffic areas.

Why the JupDec Jersey Frame Display Case Works for Both

The JupDec Jersey Frame Display Case blends the best of both worlds:

  • Solid wood backing gives it structure and a refined look

  • Clear acrylic front panels protect the jersey while showing it off in full detail

  • UV protection helps preserve signatures and colors over time

  • Wall-mountable with included hardware—no extra tools needed

Whether you're a sports memorabilia collector or just want to give your favorite jersey the attention it deserves, it's a display solution that’s built to last.

Hanging a jersey display case isn’t difficult—but choosing the right one can make all the difference. Whether you prefer the classic appeal of wood or the clean, modern look of acrylic, make sure your case offers solid construction, UV protection, and easy wall-mounting.

With the JupDec Jersey Frame Display Case, you don’t have to compromise. It’s the ideal mix of form, function, and fan pride.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
