Pavement Signs & Advertising Boards

The price of a pavement sign depends on the type, size and graphic option you choose. Compact flexible-panel signs, A-boards, poster displays and larger forecourt signs are priced differently.

Select the required options on the individual product page for current pricing. Check whether your chosen configuration includes printed graphics, posters or hardware only before ordering.

Before you order outdoor advertising boards it’s best to consider the size of space available by taking a good look at the available outdoor area. For indoor and outdoor use, you need to strike a balance between making an impact and creating an obstruction. Also, take accurate measurements and never guess the size because these signs are bulky, and mistakes are hard to fix.

 The following sizing guidance applies in most situations:

 A2 A-boards: compact, unobtrusive and easy to handle. These signs fit in the average car and are a good choice for pavement cafes, exhibitions and entrance foyers.

 A1 Pavement Signs: These popular signs are used in the high street and shopping malls and display readily available A1 posters. These signs are available as an A-frame design or as a double-sided frame with a heavy base to be filled with sand or water for ballast.

 A0 Pavement Signs: The large format boards can cause an obstruction, so they're suitable for larger spaces like a supermarket forecourt. These signs are heavy and designed to stay in place.

 30x40 Pavement Signs: similar to A0 pavement signs.

 40x60 Pavement Signs: Designed for garage forecourts where they won't obstruct pedestrians.

Production and despatch times depend on the pavement sign and graphic option you choose. Hardware-only and stocked products may have different lead times from signs requiring custom printed graphics.

Check the individual product page for the current estimated despatch date. Delivery options are shown at checkout.

If you have a fixed event or installation date, contact our team before ordering so we can confirm the available production and delivery options.

To ensure your pavement sign last for a long period despite constant outdoor exposure, there are a few steps you can take. Start by cleaning dirt and grime with a soft cloth and soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals, and remove any weeds that might have taken root.

 To prevent fading, avoid positioning the sign in strong sunlight for long periods of time.

 If the signs are not in use, store in a dry place. If possible, cover with protective material to reduce moisture damage and extend the lifespan of your sign.

 Invest in replacement posters or display panels when your sign shows signs of wear. They're easy to replace and can be used to update your design in seconds. The possibilities are endless!

Outdoor suitability varies by model. Some pavement signs use weighted bases, flexible panels or other features designed for outdoor use, while lighter displays may be better suited to more sheltered locations.

Always follow the product-specific instructions for weighting, positioning and weather conditions. Bring the sign indoors during severe weather or whenever conditions exceed the guidance for the chosen model.

It depends on the type of sign.

Poster pavement signs and A-boards are designed for replaceable posters, making them useful for frequently changing promotions. Some printed-panel signs have replacement panels available, while chalkboard models can be updated by hand.

Check the individual product page for compatible replacement posters, panels or graphics before ordering replacements for an existing sign.

Requirements depend on where the sign is positioned and the rules applied by your local authority. If you plan to place an advertising sign on a public road or pavement, you may need permission or a street display licence from the relevant council.

Advertisement consent requirements can also apply depending on the sign and location. Check with your local authority before positioning a pavement sign, and make sure it does not obstruct pedestrians, wheelchair users, pushchairs or other highway users.

Assembly depends on the type of sign. Some A-boards simply fold open, while other pavement signs use a separate base, panel, poster frame or other components.

Follow the instructions supplied with your chosen model and any product-specific setup or weighting guidance before positioning the sign outside.
