A floor-standing sign stand with a 7″ x 11″ frame on a weighted cast iron base. It puts a printed message at eye level exactly where people are already standing at an entrance, beside a service desk, or partway along a queue where it is read far more often than the same notice taped to a wall.

The frame takes 1/4″ rigid sign material and is supplied with two clear acrylic sheets, so you can drop in ordinary printed paper straight away and swap it whenever the message changes.

Choosing a base

All three bases weigh the same and hold the post equally well. The difference is how they sit in the room:

• Flat the lowest profile of the three. Easiest to slide a foot past in a tight aisle, and the least visually heavy.
• Dome a raised bell shape, 12.5″ across rather than 14″. The smallest footprint, and nothing collects on top of it.
• Profile a shaped disc that reads as more finished. The usual choice in hotel lobbies and reception areas where the stand is part of the decor.

Orientation

Choose vertical (portrait) for wayfinding and short instructions, or horizontal (landscape) for wider messages, logos and two-line headings. The frame is fixed in the orientation you order, so pick the one that matches your artwork.

Finishes

Five finishes: Black, Polished Stainless, Satin Stainless, Polished Brass and Satin Brass. Black is the workhorse for back-of-house and events; the stainless and brass finishes suit customer-facing areas and match the posts in our rope and belt stanchion ranges.

Specifications

If you already run a stanchion line, post-top signs and frames mount straight onto the posts and may remove the need for a separate stand.
