Types of Signs

A-frames and bases are temporary outdoor signs and are the most popular signs we produce.  The dimensions are 24”x 32” and can be horizontal (a-frames) or vertical (bases).  These signs are typically single-sided but we do offer double-sided signs as well.

If you plan to submit your own design, please visit the FAQ section for detailed design specifications. Don’t have your own design?  No problem! Our staff is made up of talented designers who are ready to do the work for you.  The cost of a new sign includes our design services, the production of the sign, and the use of the display stand for a maximum of 2 weeks.  If you would like the sign(s) out for longer than 2 weeks, you will need to pay a nominal weekly rental fee.

Our staff places your outdoor sign(s) directly on campus at your requested locations and picks them up when the event ends.  The display stands belong to the Sign Shop, but the sign is yours to keep if you wish.  We will store signs for up to one year if you plan to reuse them.  Please indicate on the order form if you intend to reuse/keep your signs or not.

Easels are signs strictly for indoor use, to welcome people to a particular event or area.  Easel dimensions are 24 inches by 32 inches, typically a portrait layout, but we can make them landscape by request.

The cost of an easel sign includes the sign board only and does not include the easel stand.  The sign will be delivered to your office prior to the event and it is your responsibility to set up and take down the easel stand at the event.

The Sign Shop does not provide an easel stand to place the sign.  You are welcome to use your own or borrow one from Building Services.  To request an easel stand(s) from them, please submit a Work Request.  Choose Category>Event Setup and Type>Other.  Please provide the date/time/location of your event and the number of easel stands needed in the description.

Stick signs are exactly what their name suggests.  They are small signs attached to a stick.  Typically, they are used within tour groups to help congregate or lead people.  Stick signs are typically 16 inches wide by 12 inches high.  The size can vary, however, and the cost will change accordingly.  See the “Smaller Signs” section on our Price List.
