Hi Debbie,

Thank you for your question about SecurIT® Color-Coded Key Tag Rack.

Easy question first: yes, the rack comes with the key tags. If you ever need order more, you can get extra SecurIT® key tags here.

Now, for the trickier bit. Most adhesive magnetic strips are not strong enough to hold up your key tag rack, especially once you start adding keys to the tags. Those products are designed to magnetize paper for memos and such. One product that should do the trick is Baumgartens Adhesive-Backed Magnetic Tape.

A 12" strip of Baumgartens Magnetic Tape will hold up 6 lbs. The SecurIT® Rack is only 10-1/2" long, so one solid tape strip applied to the back will hold up a little less than 6 lbs. Your keys probably don't weigh anything near 6 lbs. But just in case, I recommend applying two or three solid strips to the entire length of back of the rack to ensure adequate holding power. Two lengths of magnetic tape will support about 12 lbs, three is good for about 18 lbs. Baumgartens Magnetic Tape comes in 10 ft. rolls, so you'll have more than enough.

Thanks for your great question! Hope this solves your problem!

Best,

Frankye
