Overview of pavement sign variants

What size are pavement signs (format)?

Pavement signs are available in different sizes and formats to meet different requirements. We offer the following sizes:

• A0
• A1
• A2
• A3
• B1
• B2

The decision whether to buy a small or large pavement sign depends on the space available to you. The A1 format is the top seller in the SPRINTIS range. It offers a good size to present your message efficiently without overwhelming the viewer. If you have less (or more) space available, simply choose a smaller or larger version. Ultimately, choosing the right model always depends on where it will be used: do you want to advertise in an exhibition hall or in a small shop? Large formats can be seen from a distance and present complex information or graphics.

What material are sidewalk displays made of?

The SPRINTIS range includes products made of aluminium or wood. These materials have different advantages:

Aluminium conveys a modern and professional appearance and is well suited for companies that prefer a contemporary and high-quality look.

Wood has a natural and warm charm that creates a cosy and inviting atmosphere. This gives your shop a down-to-earth, rustic touch. Renewable raw materials are a sustainable option and show your commitment to the environment.

Where can pavement signs be set up?

Pavement signs are suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Indoor refers to use inside a building and outdoor refers to use outside. Typical locations include:

• • shops and shopping centres (point of sale)
• restaurants and cafés (catering)
• trade fairs and events

In retail, advertising boards draw attention to special offers and discounts. Presenting new items is also an effective way of arousing interest. Pavement signs are particularly common in pedestrian zones. Here they have a dual function: they serve as advertising space and as signposts. In catering, sidewalk displays communicate changing daily or weekly specials. For this purpose, we recommend our high-quality pavement signs in a wood look. These leave a lasting impression on the viewer. A-boards can also be used at trade fairs to draw attention to your advertising even before visitors reach your stand. Depending on whether you are using outdoor or indoor A-boards, you should choose different products. Indoor models are lighter, less expensive and less stable. Weatherproof street displays are heavier and have a stable structure to withstand the wind. They are made of water-repellent, rust-free materials and are UV-resistant to improve legibility in bright sunlight. Read here what you should bear in mind when setting up:

Indoor pavement signs

There are no special rules or regulations that you need to follow when setting up your sign holder. You should just make sure that your customers' walkways remain clear and that your advertising message is strategically positioned. Choose locations that are highly visible and attract the most attention. These could be near the entrance or in main thoroughfares, for example.

Outdoor pavement signs

Pavement signs set up in public traffic areas (e.g. pedestrian zones, pavements) require a permit. You must apply for permission in advance in writing from the relevant public order office or municipal office. They will inform you if, when and where you may position your advertising. The following principles apply: The pavement should not be blocked. There must be enough space for pedestrians, wheelchair users and other passers-by. Also make sure that your sidewalk display does not pose a danger to people passing by. Especially in extreme weather conditions, your sign holder should be sufficiently secured so that it does not damage surrounding buildings or injure passers-by. You can achieve this, for example, with weather- or wind-resistant versions. We also offer items with rounded corners instead of classic mitred corners. This allows you to minimise the risk of injury.

Why are pavement signs so effective?

Pavement signs serve as stable display stands for posters and offers in the direct path of passers-by. The appealing advertising displays automatically draw shoppers’ attention to the content. Thanks to their large format, the message can be easily seen from a distance. Pavement signs are usually easy to assemble and do not require any complicated installation. They can be set up and moved quickly, which makes them particularly flexible. Targeting customers in this way arouses interest in your product range and strengthens your brand presence. When purchasing outdoor advertising displays, it is best to use double-sided models: This allows you to address customers in both directions.

Outdoor pavement signs: Use in any weather

The waterproof and rustproof frame of our waterproof pavement signs ensures that your poster remains dry after rain or snow. Our products are also equipped with an anti-reflective film so that the insert is easy to read even in direct sunlight. The windproof models have a base that can be filled with water and used as a weight. This ensures that your advertising space can withstand even strong gusts of wind. In coastal regions or in windy areas (e.g. railway stations), the water base makes all the difference and ensures optimum stability. Neither wind nor rain can prevent our pavement signs from effectively displaying your offers. Especially in pedestrian zones, where many shops are lined up next to each other, a good public image is essential for your success.
