Sign Hardware Specs: Standard Size for Yard Sign Wire Stakes
Ordering a massive stack of custom Coroplast yard signs is the easiest way to blanket a neighborhood with your marketing. However, many first-time buyers order the signs and completely forget to order the hardware required to actually stick them into the ground. Understanding the standard stake sizes ensures a perfect, stress-free installation.
The Mechanics of the H-Stake
The standard metal stake is a highly specific, engineered piece of hardware.
- The Dimensions: The universal industry standard is the ‘H-Stake’, which typically measures 10 inches wide by exactly 30 inches tall.
- The Application: The top prongs of the stake are designed to slide directly and securely into the open, hollow flutes inside the corrugated plastic sign, while the bottom prongs are stepped directly into the dirt.
The Raven32 Recommendation
A simple printing mistake can render your entire sign order completely useless. As your printing and promotional experts, we meticulously check every single sign order. You must always ensure your Coroplast signs are specifically printed with the interior flutes running vertically. If the printer runs the flutes horizontally, the metal H-stakes absolutely cannot be inserted, and you will not be able to display the sign.
