Shipping & Delivery

How fast we ship, carriers, transit time, and shipping costs.

FedEx Ground is our standard shipping method. FedEx Priority Overnight and 2 Day Air are available upon request.

How long will it take to reach me after it ships?

Typically 1–3 business days, depending on your location. Orders ship from Florida, Ohio, and California.

How do you ship a sign that size?

Signs are scored, folded, and shipped in a 2‘×4‘ box. The scoring is done against the corrugations, so it does not affect rigidity.

General

Common questions about post kit.

How tall is the Standard PVC Post Kit when installed?

The Standard PVC Post Kit includes 8-foot vertical PVC posts. We recommend installing the posts in holes approximately 24 inches deep for proper stability, resulting in a finished height of about 6 feet above ground.

Will the Standard PVC Post Kit stand up to weather?

Yes. Our Standard PVC Post Kit is designed for outdoor use and is rain resistant, rust resistant, and rated to withstand winds up to 55 mph when properly installed.

Our headquarters is in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, so we design our post kits with harsh weather conditions in mind.

Do you offer the Standard PVC Post Kit in custom sizes?

Yes. While the Standard PVC Post Kit is commonly used with 4′ × 4′ and 4′ × 8′ signs, we can manufacture custom sizes to accommodate other sign dimensions.

For custom configurations, please call us at 1-800-843-7446 or email mail@1800thesign.com for details.

What features are included with the Standard PVC Post Kit?
  • Durable PVC Posts – Rain and rust resistant for long-lasting outdoor performance.
  • Optional Gothic Cap Toppers – Flat caps are included by default, with Gothic caps available for a more elegant, professional look.
  • Hardware and Screws Included – Everything needed for installation is included. Only a shovel and screwdriver are required.

Post Kits & Installation

All post kits for 4‘×8‘ signs are designed for use with 10mm corrugated plastic only.

How do I install a Standard PVC Post Kit?

PVC Frame installation typically takes 30–45 minutes. The sign slides into horizontal tracks, which are secured to two vertical posts using the included hardware. The posts can be installed by digging 18"–24" deep holes or by using T-posts and a post pounder for hard or frozen ground.

  • Holds one single or double-sided sign. Installs in the ground.
  • Two 8' posts
  • Tracks for the sign to slide into
  • Flat caps + screws

How do I install an Arrow Post Kit?

Arrow Post Kits typically install in 30–45 minutes and are designed to display two single-sided signs in a V-shape for maximum visibility. The signs slide into horizontal tracks and are secured to three vertical posts (one center post and two side posts). Posts are installed by digging 18"–24" deep holes, using the sign as a spacing guide.

  • Holds two single-sided signs in a V-shape. Installs in the ground.
  • Three 8' vertical posts
  • Two sets of horizontal tracks
  • Flat caps + screws

Are there alternative cap styles or mounting options available?

Yes. Gothic caps are available as an elegant alternative to standard flat caps for all post kit options. You may also request holes (for 10mm signs) or brass-plated grommets (for 4mm signs) for hanging, or mount the sign directly to a wall by drilling through the corrugated plastic.

How do I install a Self-Standing Post Kit?

Self-Standing Post Kits typically install in 30–45 minutes and are designed for hard surfaces such as asphalt or concrete. The vertical posts attach to a flat base, the sign slides into horizontal tracks, and stabilizers with sandbags are used to add weight and keep the sign secure—no digging required.

  • Free-standing base for asphalt or cement.
  • Posts + horizontal tracks
  • Flat caps + screws

How do I set up my own wood or custom frame?

If you are using your own wood frame (not sold by 1-800-THE-SIGN), the sign can be mounted to a custom-built frame using standard lumber and fasteners. The frame is typically set in 18"–24" deep holes, and the sign is secured directly to the frame using nails or screws. This option is best for permanent or long-term installations.

Durability & Policies

Wind resistance and return policy details.

How do your signs hold up in the wind?

4′×4′ and 4′×8′ signs in our PVC post kit hold up to about 55 MPH winds. Smaller signs with skirt stands hold up to about 45 MPH winds.

Will my sign fade or wear over time?

Our signs are printed with UV-resistant inks designed to withstand direct sunlight and maintain vibrant color for at least two years. Each design is produced on high-quality vinyl and finished with a durable, pressure-sensitive laminate for long-lasting protection and secure adhesion.

Do you offer refunds or returns?

We do not accept returns on custom signs. Unused post kits and stands may be returned minus a 15% restocking fee. Return shipping is the customer’s responsibility (we can arrange return shipping upon request).
