advice on sign fixings needed please
Morning all! I’m after some advice from all you ‘old hands’ out there…..
Later this week I have to erect some signs, the spec is to have them out from the wall by around 8 inches, top edge at guttering level, (rectangular, landscape), and an oval to be fixed with centre line at gutter level.
They are 3mm Dibond, not large, and I would like to fix so the fixings are all on the back, but don’t know what I will need to do this.
I had thought to use steel ‘stepped’ brackets (sorry, don’t know what they are called), but want to avoid screwing through the sign face.Ther is also a large Dibond panel to be fixed to a shiplap wall, how would you go about fixing to this, again with ‘invisible’ fixings, if possible!
Any advice/ideas anyone?

The shiplap wall i would use equal ali angle and vhb it to the back of the Dibond you will have to keep it fairly near to the top and bottom edges so you ca fix through one piece to the other and your bracket idea sound ok for the other one

Thanks for your advice Dave, I’ve now sorted it, the co. that is supplying the prints for this job are putting locators on the back of each sign with a template for fixing, much like you do for stand-off letters.
Still got to source the brackets though.
