A magnet-based frame mounting system comprises a frame plate that is magnetically attractive and a wall plate that is magnetically attractive. The frame plate has a first surface that mechanically mounts within a rear surface of a frame. Correspondingly, the wall plate has a first surface that mechanically mounts directly to a wall. When the frame plate is mounted to a corresponding frame, the wall plate is mounted to a corresponding wall, and the frame plate is magnetically coupled to the frame plate, the frame plate is concealed by the frame, the wall plate is concealed by the frame and the frame is repositionable in any direction parallel to the wall plate, without repositioning the wall plate, such that the frame stays at a set location based upon the magnetic coupling between the frame plate and the wall plate.

A magnet-based frame mounting system comprising: a frame plate having a first surface that mounts to a recessed rear surface of a frame, wherein the frame plate is magnetically attractive; and a magnetically attractive wall plate including: a top bend;a bottom bend;a major planar surface; anda first surface that mounts directly to a wall, such that when the wall plate is mounted to the corresponding wall, a gap forms between the major planar surface of the wall plate and the corresponding wall;wherein:when the frame plate is mounted to the frame, the wall plate is mounted to the corresponding wall, and the frame plate is positioned over the wall plate, the wall plate magnetically couples to the frame plate such that: the frame plate is concealed by the frame;the wall plate is concealed by the frame; andthe frame is repositionable in any direction parallel to the wall plate without repositioning the wall plate such that the frame stays at a set location based upon the magnetic coupling between the frame plate and the wall plate. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein: the frame plate has no permanently magnetic poles; andthe wall plate comprises a permanent magnet. 3. The system of claim 1, further comprising: an intermediate plate, wherein the intermediate plate is magnetically attractive and magnetically couples between the frame plate and the wall plate. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein: the frame plate has no permanently magnetic poles;the wall plate has no permanently magnetic poles; andthe intermediate plate comprises a permanent magnet. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein: the wall plate is a flexible material such that the wall plate deflects to couple with the frame plate when a depth of the formed air gap is less than a depth of the recessed surface of the frame. 6. A method for mounting a frame on a wall, the method comprising: mounting a frame plate to a recessed rear surface of a frame, wherein the frame plate is magnetically attractive;mounting a magnetically attractive wall plate including a top bend, a bottom bend, and a major planar surface directly to a wall such that a gap forms between the major planar surface of the wall plate and the corresponding wall;magnetically coupling the frame plate to the wall plate such that the frame conceals the frame plate and the frame conceals the wall plate; andrepositioning the frame in any direction parallel to the wall plate to achieve a desired location on the wall without moving the wall plate such that the frame stays at the desired location based upon the magnetic coupling between the frame plate and the wall plate. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein: mounting a frame plate comprises mounting a frame plate having no permanently magnetic poles, within the rear surface of the frame; andmounting a wall plate comprises mounting a wall plate having a permanent magnet, directly to the wall. 8.
