Post Kit Maintenance
Our Post Kits are built to withstand the elements, but if they get dirty, don’t worry! Here are a few easy steps to clean your post kit and keep it looking great for years:
• Washing Your Post Kit: Simply wash with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge (avoid harsh scrubbing pads). This will clean your post without scratching it.
• Spot Cleaning: For spot cleaning, Windex or Lysol spray work very well and won’t harm the plastic.
• Rinsing Off: You can hose your sign down with water! Our PVC plastic material won’t rust.
• Drying: You can either let your post kit air dry in the sun or gently wipe it with a soft towel or paper towel.
Installation
Our 4x8 PVC Standard Post Kit is so easy to install, the majority of our customers do it themselves!
Step 1: Slide the horizontal tracks onto the top and bottom of the sign and secure with the included screws.
Step 2: Push the sign with the tracks into the channel in the left vertical post, followed by the right vertical post. Secure the side posts with the included screws. Add your Flat Cap (or Gothic Cap) post toppers.
Step 3: Decide where you’d like your sign to go, and dig holes the same width apart as the sign posts (make sure both holes are the same depth as well – you want to make sure your sign isn’t crooked!) Lift up your assembled sign, drop it in the holes, and backfill.
