    i used to supply loads of these and found the cheapest and easiest way was to get a local timber merchant to cut two by two’s and point the wood at one end then i just painted then drilled holes for the nylon bolts. 😀

    Hi Colin,

    Humphreys Signs supply painted, spiked and even split posts for a reasonble price, they also do all the nylon bolts, screws/washers etc. they mainly do screen print for estate agent boards. I found them to be good value

    Colin, estate agents, want everything for nothing…
    by all means quote for the work, but do not hold your breath. i have been here several times over the years with some "big" name estate agents and got nowhere!

    we now only sell direct to the public and find it much easier, better… "private sales of course"

    anyway, as Nik has suggested, a 2inch x 2inch, 6-7 ft high wooden post.
    correx panel with vinyl letters on either side. you should be looking for about £30+ for that…

    (For sale – tel number)

    estate agents will want same for less than £8 🙄

    One of my clients got a price of £12 for full colour digital, double sided on corex, the post, fixings etc………………………………………………. and fitting!! 😮

    That was for a batch of 100 signs, which are obviously reusable too, I told him to take their hand off and just charged for artwork.

    this is just a 5 or 10 off for a new local company. I saw the online prices for 25 or more, i dont really want to be competing with those.
