Our free-standing printed vinyl signs on posts the posts are solid Oak.
Our new range of printed vinyl signs is something special! The most impressive part is the combination of printed vinyl signs and our beautifully handmade oak posts and frame, making the overall finish of our signs eye-catching and extremely sturdy. We use English oak sourced only 20 miles from our Hampshire workshop. We then fix our printed signs into the timber using traditional joinery techniques, not to mention precision and attention to detail.
The same hard-wearing material used on vans and shop signs – Vinyl is waterproof and will last for years without any maintenance. What’s wonderful is you can have lettering as well as logos, coloured artwork, and tiny and layered detail, which working with timber alone can’t be achieved. All you have to do is upload your artwork when ordering your sign, or email it to us after your order has been placed. We will require Hi-Res good quality artwork in order to print the sign.
We supply these handcrafted printed signs in a range of standard sizes. The sign plaques range from 15cm high – up to – 60cm high. The width of the sign will range from 50cm – up to – 100cm depending on your artwork and lettering. See our sign dimensions below:
We can also make bespoke size signs to suit your specific requirements. All our signs are handmade in the UK so please feel free to ask if you want something a little different than standard.
When ordering your free-standing business sign you have the option of having the sign plaque mounted between 2 oak posts at either end, or with an oak frame set at the top and bottom of the sign plaque. The frame provides extra stability whilst enhancing the look of the sign.
Each sign comes with 60cm of oak post protruding below the printed sign plaque. However, you can choose to increase the length of the posts to change the height of your sign, giving you the option of having your sign close to the ground or plenty of clearance should you need it – to be above a wall or hedge for example. When it comes to placing your sign, if you are not using any post-ground fixings then you must allow for the additional length of the post to go into the ground. We recommend a minimum of 25cm for the Small and Medium to go into the ground, 30-40cm for the Large. We would also recommend filling it with concrete for stability and security reasons.
As with everything we do here at Make Me Something Special, we have spent the time researching and sourcing the perfect materials available. Each oak sign is handmade from one piece of Air Dried Superior Grade English Oak. This Timber is perfectly seasoned and adjusted for outdoor conditions. You can choose to leave your sign untreated, finished in Superior Danish Oil or our low-maintenance Diamond Coating finish. If you choose untreated your product will weather to a pale silver more quickly. Danish Oil will not only treat the timber but also bring out the timber’s natural colour. This has a UV filter to protect the timber but it does require regular upkeep. 2 – 4 times a year to keep it looking its best. Diamond Coating is more glossy but a lot harder wearing and only requires a top-up once a year, however, this depends on the weather and where the product is placed. We would recommend twice a year if you want full protection. Top up kits can be ordered over the phone or on our website – see here.
