What is the Black Rectangle Metal Keychain?
This keychain is made from quality materials selected for decoration and everyday durability. It measures 1 5/8"(L) x 1 1/4"(H) x 1/8" thick. This is the black colorway.
Built to survive real use rather than a single event, that is what separates a promotional item that keeps working from one that ends up in a drawer. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
A keychain is handled several times a day, every day, for years. Decoration method is matched to the substrate so the mark is permanent rather than printed on top.
Treat this as reach inventory. The point of the tier is that you can put one in every hand at an event without the total ever becoming a conversation with finance. Concretely: $4.55 each at 1-11, $2.82 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 0.98 in x 0.63 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it will not.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
Production schedule
| Digital proof | Same or next business day |
|---|---|
| Standard run | 3 to 5 business days once the proof is signed off |
| Rush run | quoted per job once the proof is signed off, with the date confirmed in writing |
| Delivery | 1 to 5 business days on the ground network |
Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Names, dates and short inscriptions turn an ordinary object into something kept for decades. Quantities are modest and lead times are unforgiving, which makes production scheduling the thing to get right. An imprint area of 0.98 in x 0.63 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. The unit cost here is low enough that reach matters more than restraint.
Automotive & Dealerships
Delivery day is the highest-emotion moment in the customer relationship. Service and sales want opposite things from the same budget. Sales needs a handful of pieces with real presence for delivery day; service needs high frequency at low cost. Splitting the budget explicitly stops one cannibalizing the other. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.
Real Estate & Closing Gifts
A closing gift is a referral instrument, not a thank-you note. Agents re-order what generates conversations, not what photographs well. Track which pieces prompt a referral call and the item list narrows quickly to two or three things worth stocking properly. Volume is the point at $4.55; nobody is auditing this line item.
Trade Shows & Conferences
Booth traffic is not the metric: what leaves the hall and stays in use is. Run a two-tier giveaway: a low-cost item for everyone who stops, and a genuinely good piece reserved for qualified conversations. The second tier is what people remember when your follow-up email arrives a week later. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Cost per impression is the number that matters here, and it is very low.
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. Local operators will source their own if the approved path is slower or costlier than the alternative. The way to hold brand consistency is to make the compliant option the easy one, with stocked items and fixed pricing. A keychain is handled several times a day, every day, for years. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.

What do buyers ask about GFT100?
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on GFT100 is 0.98 in x 0.63 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
What artwork do you need from me?
Vector artwork is ideal (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) with all type converted to outlines. High-resolution raster at 300 dpi or better also works, and a logo saved from a website is worth sending anyway. We check it against the 0.98 in x 0.63 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on GFT100 runs from $4.55 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.82 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
How is this decorated?
Laser Engraving is the primary method on GFT100. A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved. We can also run UV Printing on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on GFT100 is 0.98 in x 0.63 in.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on GFT100 is 0.98 in x 0.63 in.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on GFT100 runs from $4.55 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.82 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
What is the minimum order for GFT100?
GFT100 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on GFT100 runs from $4.55 a piece at 1-11 down to $2.82 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on GFT100 is 0.98 in x 0.63 in.
