A-Board and Pavement Signs FAQ's
Get answers to all your frequently asked questions about a-board and pavement signs.
Do you need permission for pavement signs?
Public Pavements: You usually need permission from the local council to place an A-board or pavement sign on public land. Some councils charge a fee or have restrictions on size, placement, and obstruction risks. You can check with your local council here.
Private Property: If the sign is entirely on private land (e.g., outside a shop within your lease boundary), you typically don’t need council permission but should check your lease agreement.
Conservation Areas & High Streets: Stricter rules may apply, and some councils ban pavement signs altogether.
It’s best to check with your local council before placing a sign to avoid fines or removal.
What type of pavement sign should I choose?
The best pavement sign depends on your needs, location, and budget. A-board signs (A-frame signs) are a cost-effective, foldable option, ideal for cafés, retail shops, and salons, though lightweight versions may tip over in strong winds.
Swing signs are sturdy with a swinging panel that reduces wind resistance, making them great for high streets and pedestrian areas.
For outdoor use in windy locations, water-filled or weighted base signs offer excellent stability and weather resistance but are bulkier.
If you frequently change promotions, poster holder signs with a protective cover allow for easy poster swaps.
To choose the right one, consider your environment—swing or weighted base signs work well in windy areas, while poster holder signs are best for businesses that update offers regularly. A-board signs remain a popular, portable choice for general use.
How do I design an a board or pavement sign?
To design an effective A-board or pavement sign, keep the message simple and bold with large, easy-to-read fonts and high-contrast colours for visibility. Use eye-catching graphics like logos or simple icons, but avoid clutter. Ensure text is positioned at eye level for readability, and include a clear call-to-action (e.g., “Try Today” or “Visit Us Inside”). If the sign is outdoors, opt for weather-resistant materials like laminated posters or vinyl lettering. A well-designed sign grabs attention, conveys key information quickly, and encourages customers to take action. For inspiration take a look at these pavement sign examples on Pinterest.
