A-Frame Pavement Sign Printing

Make your message impossible to miss. Your design prints on both sides of a free-standing A-frame sign, so people see it coming and going. It's built to live outside. Galvanised steel back, anti-glare snap frame, and enough weight to keep the board upright when the weather turns. Pavement signs take a beating, so this one is made to stand up to it.

Works outside a shop, café or restaurant, at exhibitions and events, or anywhere you need to point people towards an offer, a direction or a product. When the message changes, print a new sheet and clip it into the snap frame. The board stays. A1 or A2, portrait. Order one A-board or enough for every branch, and check your price on the calculator.

How To Upload Your Files
  • To ensure high-quality print files, we'll convert your files to PDFs, no matter which file type you upload. We accept single pages, double pages or individual files. Visit our File Formats Support Page to learn how to submit your files.
Bleed
  • Bleed is the area surrounding your print’s trim size, extending an image or colour beyond the finished trim size. Add a 3mm bleed to every print file before uploading them to your Artwork Dashboard. Avoid placing any important content within the bleed area. You don't need to include bleed if your pages are blank (i.e. no images/graphics meeting the edge of your page). Visit our Bleed Setup Support Page to learn more about bleed, trim lines and gutter areas.
