Signpost Surface Mounting Guide

Home / Installation Guides / Signpost Surface Mounting Guide

How to install our surface mounted Triplex powder coated mild steel signposts:

  1. Position the Sign PostDetermine where you want to place your sign post. Position the sign post in the desired location on the surface (concrete or asphalt)
  2. Mark Drilling PointsUsing a marker, outline the holes on the base plate onto the surface. This will guide you where to drill.
  3. Pre-Drill HolesUsing a hammer drill with a masonry bit, drill holes into the surface where you marked. The depth of the holes should match the length of your concrete anchor bolts.
  4. Insert Anchor BoltsAfter the holes have been drilled, clean out any dust or debris. Then, insert the concrete anchor bolts into the holes.
  5. Attach the SignPost Position the base plate (which is attached to the sign post) over the anchor bolts. The bolts should align with the holes in the base plate.
  6. Secure the Sign PostTighten the nuts onto the anchor bolts, thereby securing the sign post to the surface. Use a spanner or socket set to make sure the nuts are securely tightened.
  7. Check the PostUsing a level tool, check to ensure the sign post is straight. If necessary, make adjustments by loosening and retightening the nuts.
  8. Final CheckAfter making sure the post is level, give all the nuts a final tightening to ensure the sign post is secure.
