A Fridge Magnet That Changes Its Picture When You Tilt It

Tilt one on the fridge and the picture flips to a different image entirely: a logo snaps into place, a before trades for an after, a closed sign turns open. That is a 3D lenticular magnet, a ridged lens bonded over your artwork so it cycles through two, three, or four pictures as it tilts. They start at $1,316.96 for a run of 500 and hold a 4.6 out of 5 across 5 reviews, printed by a New York shop that has run presses since 1999. Because it moves, people pick it up and keep it.

These magnets do the marketing for you. One holds fast to a fridge or a filing cabinet for years, and every time someone tilts it the message changes and gets read again.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 500 starts at $1,316.96, about $2.63 a magnet, and because these use a specialty lens and interlaced artwork they price as a volume product, so the per-magnet cost keeps sliding as the count climbs toward 10,000.

What Is a 3D Lenticular Magnet?

A 3D lenticular magnet is a magnet printed on a 45pt lenticular stock, a thick sheet of tiny lenses that shows a different image depending on the viewing angle, bonded to a magnetic back. At 4OVER4 these print full color on the front in 12 sizes, with a flip effect that cycles between 2, 3, or 4 images as the magnet tilts, and a minimum order of 500.

A lenticular magnet earns its spot on the fridge because it moves. Instead of a flat print, your art sits under a ridged plastic lens, so tilting the magnet swaps one image for another while it holds fast to any steel surface. You upload the frames, choose how many images flip and which way they travel, and 4OVER4 interlaces them onto the 45pt magnet stock. It reads as print magic a paper magnet cannot match. If you want the plain full color version instead, the business card magnets cover that, and the lenticular sits beside them as the one that moves.

How Does the 3D Flip Effect Work?

The 3D effect on these magnets is a flip effect, where the lenticular lens shows a different image at different angles. At 4OVER4 you choose 2, 3, or 4 flips, which sets how many images the magnet cycles through, and an effect direction of top to bottom or left to right. Ink prints 4/0, full color on the front, with the magnetic side left blank on the back.

A flip works by slicing two to four of your images into thin strips and printing them under the lens so each angle reveals a different frame. Pick 2 flips for a clean before and after, 3 flips for a short sequence, or 4 flips for the most motion. The direction sets how the change travels: top to bottom flips as you tilt the magnet forward and back, while left to right flips as you turn it side to side. The more contrast between your frames, the stronger the flip reads.

What Size Should a Lenticular Magnet Be?

4OVER4 prints 3D lenticular magnets in 12 sizes, from a 2" x 3.5" vertical up to a 7" x 5" horizontal, including a 2.5" x 2.5" and a 3" x 3" square. The default is the 2" x 3.5" vertical, and a custom size up to 7" x 7" can be made to order. Every size runs the same 45pt lenticular magnet stock.

The choice comes down to how much room the art needs and which way the magnet reads. The 2" x 3.5" vertical is the business-card footprint and the default, so it doubles as a magnetic contact card. Turn it on its side for the 3.5" x 2" horizontal, or reach for a 2.5" x 2.5" or 3" x 3" square when the flip works better centered. When you want the magnet to hold a photo or a full scene, sizes climb to a 7" x 5" that fills a stretch of fridge door, and a custom size takes you to a full 7" x 7". Round the corners at a 1/8" or 1/4" radius for a softer edge, or leave them square. The full size and finishing menu is grouped below exactly the way the live configurator shows it.

How Much Do 3D Lenticular Magnets Cost?

3D lenticular magnets start at $1,316.96 for 500, the minimum run, which works out to about $2.63 a magnet. Ordering more moves the math a lot: 1,000 run $1,569.59, 2,000 run $2,854.69, 5,000 run $4,392.40, and 10,000 land at $7,687.54, close to $0.77 each and roughly a third of the starting per-piece cost. There are 6 quantity tiers in all. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the total and the true per-magnet cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.

Wally makes a magnet that moves

Why a 45pt lenticular stock turns a flat fridge magnet into a flip people keep.

Wally the 4OVER4 mascot tilting a 3D lenticular magnet on a fridge so the printed image flips between two frames, priced from $1,316.96 for 500, teal hand-drawn line art.

A 3D lenticular magnet hides two to four images under a plastic lens, so tilting it swaps the picture while the magnetic back holds it on the fridge. Order from $1,316.96 for 500, pick your flip count and size, and Wally interlaces your frames onto a 45pt magnet stock people display and show off.

What Material and Finishing Can You Add?

4OVER4 prints 3D lenticular magnets on a single 45pt lenticular magnet stock, a lensed sheet bonded to a magnetic backing. Finishing options are rounded corners at a 1/8" or 1/4" radius or square corners, and you can send files straight to production or request a free online proof. Print-ready files upload as PDF, JPG, or PNG.

Everything runs on one material, a 45pt lenticular magnet stock, which pairs the ridged lens that creates the flip with a magnetic back that grips steel. It is the single stock offered here because the lens is what makes the motion work. For finishing, rounded corners soften the edges at a 1/8" or 1/4" radius, or you can keep them square. Before anything prints, you decide how careful to be with the file: send it straight to production to save time, or request a free online proof and sign off on the interlaced layout first, which is worth doing on a lenticular job where the frames have to line up exactly. Upload your art as a print-ready PDF, JPG, or PNG.

How Do They Compare to Our Other Magnets?

Lenticular magnets are the standout pick when movement is the point, but they are not your only magnet.

How Fast Can You Get Lenticular Magnets?

Lenticular printing takes more steps than a flat magnet, so plan a little lead time. Standard production runs 22 business days from proof approval, and when a date is closer you can move to a 15 business day rush. Both speeds are a dropdown away, and the faster option adjusts the price. 4OVER4 has printed for more than 150,000 businesses since 1999, and 99.8% of orders ship on time with 82% shipping early, so the date is not a gamble.
