Installation Services
Our team of installers are trained in the installation of traffic and parking signs
Our install team is led by Shawn Robicheau who is an on-site ambassador in client relations. He spearheads our installation efforts from start to finish ensuring top quality craftsmanship and detailed communication.
Signs should be erected on separate posts except where one sign supplements another. Signs should not obscure each other or be hidden from view by other objects. Avoid locations such as dips in the road, just beyond the crest of a hill, and trees and foliage that could cover sign.
When installing any post into the ground, proper location maps and locates of underground utilities are required. Don’t have locates? Our team can provide them. Need a site visit for locations? Our team would be happy to evaluate your sign location requirements.
Sign Types & Installation Methods
U-flange posts are pounded in and leveled to ensure the post is straight/plum. Round posts and bollards are hand dug and cemented. Surface Mount posts and flexible delineators require a hammer to drill holes that can receive bolts, then the base is fastened with bolts to the ground.
