Are they supposed to fit inside the rim that the plate sits on if it were on a table? If they do, can they be trimed to fit if they're too big?

Hi Jan, You are able to cut them to fit inside the rim of the plate. Just make sure there are large enough to hold the weight when they are hanging.

It is supposed to fit inside of the rim on the back of the plate. I would think you can cut the plate hanger down if it is too big for your plate, I just wrapped mine just over the rim since it was just slightly too large. I wouldn't think by cutting it down would decrease its effectiveness, as the entire hanger has glue over the backside which sticks on the plate. I'm sure it would be fine. Otherwise, I do know this brand has several sizes as I have purchased a smaller size in the past. Hope this helps. :)

Yes, I thinkthat is the idea...that's where I put mine. They are made of a material that can be cut with scissors.

They can be trimmed...they should fit flat against the inside rim. This is such a simple product, but it is wonderful. What a great idea. Pick the size you need and voila, your plate is hung. Be sure to let it dry overnight.

I put all mine inside the rim at the top inside of the rim. I did have to trim most of the discs. I used the larger discs (4 in) for most. That way when trimmed there was more disc surface are to adhere to the plate. All plates and heavy platters are still secure and beautiful. What a great product!

Yes, I have mine adhered inside the rim. I don't think they'ed work otherwise because you need a flat surface for adhesion. I actually had to reinforce with heavy duty tape, but they are still hanging beautifully after several months. They may be difficult to trim because they are a thick, fabric-like material, but I imagine they could be with good scissors. Hope this helps!

Hello, It's the size noted on the description, or you may have it cut smaller. We can make the plates larger than noted on the description but the prices are by the inch. Thank you for your inquiry! Regards, Terry Moore Clocks

My portmeirion dinner plates can fit stacked up but it's tight. I have to twist them sideways to get them in, then they lay almost flat in the cubbyholes below. They stick out just a bit in the upper shelf.

You probably could trim them to size, it would be fairly easy to cut with a pair of good kitchen shears. Seems like the original packaging said something about how to trim them, but I no longer have any of it.

No I own this and it's not big enough for dinner plates , but if you're using small plates it might fit.

Yes, they are and nicely done! Just be clear on the exact SIZE plate you want. Mine was way too big, unfortunately.

They won't fit on the standard backing plate. You will need to switch to a 5" plate, but the seem to work fine with that size.

I have wondered the same thing but have not tried it. I don't see why they wouldn't work you just might have to trim them to fit.

My lid is 10" so would have sit on plate. I don't think will be problem since we had do that with our other one. Just be aware, if directions say leave uncovered, follow them or you'll have mess to clean up.

No. They look to big for use as dining set. They will not fit under the table.

No those won't fit properly , They are large size , you have to cut and modified to fit them

My dinner plates are just a little over 10 1/2" in diameter, and yes, they do fit and rotate just fine.The plates are a little bigger than the glass plate beneath, so you cannot allow anything to overhang the plate (like ears of corn).But the 10 1/2" plate fits and rotates well.

No. I have a pair of these and can confirm that standard plate holes would not be wide enough for these.

I use a small Corningware plate on mine. Fits inside the outside rim perfect and didn't cost me any extra.

I apologize....I was just now able to get this item out of my closet to check. It definitely would not hold regular dinner plates. The plates that come with the set are approximately 8 inches and what you don't see is that they have depth to them (almost like a bowl). This allows them to sit securely on the metal stand. A regular plate (big or small) would likely slide off. I hope this information helps. Again, I'm sorry for the delay in responding. Good Luck!

Yes! You totally could. I just checked for you. You can't see in the display picture but the bottom of it has slats and the way they are made allowed the plate to rest beautifully. It's actually bigger than a regular size plate. You could totally fit a big platter and when I tried it the plate wasn't moving around either...it seems quite secure
