installing sign to gate advice please
Posted by Cheryl Smith on August 25, 2011 at 1:57 pmHi there everypeeps
I have a rather large sign in a diabond material…5 ft high to somehow fix to the front of this gate. How would I do it?
any advice greatfully accepted.
This installing of signs is a whole new ballgame isnt it?

Use sign chanel on the back of each panel and then clamp to that from the rear using plates rather than clips if that makes sense.
Cheers

I personally would make them but you may be able to buy something from Ashby or the likes. By sign channel I mean like what you get on the back of road signs but instead of using the clips that would go around the posts us a plate with a hole either end which the bolts could go through. Each plate would clamp onto 2 of the vertical bars of the gate.
This is so simple to do but so difficult to explain lol. If I get a chance I will do a sketch.
Cheers
