    Here’s a secret,
    go to B&Q and buy one of their metal table legs, seriously they arn’t fancy but make exelent poles for projecting signs
    used them for years an only cost a few quid.

    A local hospital who use a lot of projecting signs has asked if I can supply a bracket in a strip so that they can cut it to fit the different height size of signs we supply to them. In another hospital I saw they were using a bracket that had a channel running the length where you slid your sign in place and screwed it in position. It only protruded an inch or so from the wall and looked like it came in lengths.

    Any suggestions or what do other members use
