Help on sign post

[klingsdesigns]

I have a customer. Roofing company higher end. They want a sign post or something that looks sharp that they can display in a lawn for about two weeks and that can hang a sign of some sort. What do you guys recommend. Kind of like a t-post mailbox style but in nice white and plastic i am assuming.

Can't be any easier than that.

Nothing wrong with asking for recommendations from trusted colleagues. We use Ornamental Post and Panel but their sign systems are likely a bit larger than you are looking for. How many are they going to need? If more than 1, you could weld some up or have some welded up out of 1" square steel tubing. You can use the sign brackets from OP&P (above) or you can get them from an architectural metals supplier like King Architectural Metals. You can get caps, finials, and all kinds of other stuff too, for fabricating your own sign posts and brackets. Fun and profitable stuff if you have the machinery to do it yourself.

Maybe THIS would work.

These are similar, but aluminum instead of PVC. And the prices appear to be better. I actually hate PVC signs, but to each their own.

If they want a job/site sign in place for a few weeks, why not just get a regular 3/4" angle frame and make a little faux gabled roof for on the top of it ??

Guaranteed they will be stolen and you'll get to make more. Think ahead........

Do you have a table saw and router even a decent hand router?
Starting with a nice sanded redwood post 6x6 or 4x4.
I use to design a lot of posts with ginger bread made from Sign Foam.
Make your own moldings, get creative, its a good thing to design your own original ideas.
