Construction companies require many different types of signage to operate effectively. One such example is post & panel signs. They are used to identify a construction site and provide more details to the public about the ongoing project. These large display signs advertise the participating builders and general contractors for their specific jobs and construction site location.
When Terry Nehls began breaking ground for his latest development, he called the experts at Front Row Signs. Directly adjacent to Terry’s current business park would be a 10,000 square foot retail center. He needed a post and panel sign to notify prospective tenants of the upcoming space. We do many post and panel signs for construction sites so we had the materials in stock and were ready to get started.
We began with the design. The client wanted to include an artists rendering of the retail center. A simple contact with phone number was the only other requirements for the single sided sign. Because there was little information competing for space on the sign, we were able to design the text large as it could fit on the 8’ width. This allowed for maximum exposure and visibility for the most important parts of the sign-the contact info.
After the design approval, we printed it on General Formulations 230 2.4 mil gloss calendered white vinyl & laminated with the matching gloss GF231. We then applied the laminated vinyl to the white painted side of the 4×8 sheet of ½” MDO. Since the back of the sign was not visible, we opted for the lesser expensive unfinished back for the MDO. We adhered two 10’ 4×4 painted wood posts to the MDO.
Our installer used Sika Polyurethane fence post mix to set the posts after digging the 2 holes. The poly fence mix is more expensive than concrete but much easier to use, lightweight, sets up quickly and no water is needed. We are always looking for better materials, methods and processes to help our clients receive the latest and the greatest. We are ready to go the extra mile for our clients without compromising our integrity or quality.
Terry was very happy with the job and has his next job with us already lined up.
