Signs help us know where we are driving, know where we need to park, know how to get to a certain business and much more. There are signs everywhere because people need information. Any properly owner or business owner likely has signs somewhere on their property or near their business. These signs are not impervious to damage, though, and encounter a number of elements that frequently do in fact damage them. Wind, rain, hail, dirt, debris, cars, and people all come into contact with signs. The sign itself is often made of a durable material but the sign post is usually thinner, sometimes wood and is often the piece of the sign that suffers the brunt of the damage. When a sign must be replaced it becomes a tedious task of trying to remove the damaged sign from the ground, fixing the hole and preparing it for a new sign. If the sign was sunk with concrete it is even more difficult. To avoid this problem and make adding and replacing signs much easier it is best to install a sign post sleeve.
A sign post sleeve may seem like an superfluous luxury but it is far from it. In fact, a sign post sleeve will save property and business owners a significant amount of time and money. Sign posts sleeves are made from a durable plastic that is 24 inches long. The sign post sleeve is then installed in a 2 inch perforated tube sign post. Once it has been installed a sign can be replaced easily and quickly by simply removing the old sign from the sign post and replacing it when a new sign. No more painstaking hours spent digging and digging to try to remove a sign - sign post sleeves make it easy. Sign posts sleeves are easily installed and, better yet, their life is extended because they are protected from things like dirt and debris. Dirt and debris corrode sign posts over time but with sign post sleeves sign posts are protected. And, they are not just better protected from dirt and debris but from cars and passersby as well. A small nudge from a car bumper does not have to result in a broken sign post, the sleeve helps add to its durability. And, one additional benefit of sign post sleeves is that they come in a variety of colors. Rather than having your sign post look worn out and old over time, sign post sleeves keep signs looking nice and professional at all times which gives a better first impression of a business for customers. Sign post sleeves should be used for all signs because they extend the life of signs, keep them looking their best and make replacement easy.
