Dimensions

• Their maximum height is 140cm, but can be cut shorter if requested.
• The post is around 8.5cm x 8.5cm in thickness. The hanging sign is 12cm x 60cm, however can be made longer or shorter.

Large Ground Spike - Recommended 

Our 70 cm ground spikes make installation easy by reducing how much of the post needs to be buried (typically 20–30 cm), keeping the sign secure while maintaining its full height. They also protect the oak by preventing direct contact with wet ground, improving stability and longevity.

For guidance, refer to our Ultimate Guide and step-by-step video tutorial.

To assemble: 

This sign arrives in two pieces: the post and the plaque. First, install the post in its chosen position. Then, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove one screw from each of the saddles on the wooden plaque. Next, simply thread the stainless steel eyelets through the saddles on the post. Tighten the screws, stand back, and enjoy your new wooden hanging sign! (see photos)
