Pavement Signs

Pavement signs are one of the most cost-effective forms of advertising around. Prices from Display Wizard start at just £36, with high-priced options including custom-printed graphics and larger displays.

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.

If your pavement display does not require any printed graphics, we are able to despatch extremely quickly – with in-stock items available for sending out the same day if ordered before 1pm.

 However, the majority of pavement signs are either made or assembled to your specification, and may be dependent on receipt of 'print ready' artwork. You will see the earliest possible despatch date based on approval of the artwork on each individual product page.

 As standard, delivery is a 3 - 5 working day service to mainland UK addresses, but on many products we also offer a next working day courier, pre-12/pre-10 working day courier and a Saturday courier.

 We will always make every effort to get your display to you on a short timescale if you have an urgent need for a pavement sign. Although we cannot make any promises, please contact us to expedite your order faster than the stated delivery if this is the case.

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!

Our pavement signs are built to be rain-resistant and durable for regular outdoor use.

 However, we recommend bringing your signs indoors in high winds and rough weather to prevent accidents and damage to your property or other people’s, which you can be liable for.

Our pavement signs make it easy to change up your displays in under a minute. Either snap open the poster board to change your promotions or slide a new poster into the pocket.

Try our flex or swing signs with printed panels if you prefer a more permanent display. These signs require you to change the entire aluminium panel when you want to update your signage.

Each council sets out different guidelines for the use of outdoor display boards. For example, many councils are happy for you to display a non-obstructive sign outside your business, while others require a licence.

It’s best to check directly with your local council to find out more as they may also have specifications of the size of sign permissible outside your premises.

Of course, assembly instructions vary on the model and are included within the packaging of the sign you purchase.
