A layered metal display has a base layer, an item layer, and one or more design layers. The item layer is coupled to the base layer via a plurality of tabs. The tabs extend rearwardly substantially perpendicular to the item layer and pass through tab receiving slots in the base layer. The distal ends of the tabs may be bent, welded, or otherwise secured to the base layer. The two or more layers form a display.

Concealment assemblies for fire protection sprinklers. The concealment assembly includes a cover member having an external surface with a base coating of uniformly applied polymer. One or more different polymer coatings are disposed in a discontinuous manner over the base polymer to provide a visual contrast and form desired indicia.

A dimensional lumber product and method for marking them. The lumber is marked on a side at regular intervals. The marks may be made with laser, paint, or mechanical force. The marks enable a builder to make accurate cuts using the existing marks, without needing to measure and manually mark the lumber.

An identification plate, in which at least one security sign is arranged within the contours of a cover layer. As a result, the security sign is embedded in the cover layer and thus becomes an integral component of the identification plate. Such a security sign can no longer be removed from the identification plate. The identification plate according to the invention thus offers as much protection against manipulation as possible.

An apparatus to produce a letterbox using a strip of material includes: a bender to receive and bend the strip of material into a desired shape of a letterbox including flanges and notches, and the bender to bend at least one end of the strip of material slightly to produce a slight bent; a processor to measure a first plurality of hole positions on a first end of the strip of material and a second plurality of hole positions on flanges of the strip of material, wherein the first plurality of hole positions on the first end are measured to match a first plurality of holes on a second end of the strip of material, wherein the second plurality of hole positions on the flanges are measured to match a second plurality of holes on a base plate; and a puncher to punch the first plurality of holes on at least one of the first end and the second end of the strip of material according to the first plurality of hole positions, and the puncher to punch the second plurality of holes on the flanges according to the second plurality of hole positions.
