Types of Traffic Sign Stands

 

Tubular Sign Stands

Tubular sign stands, such as the breakaway dual post sign stand and the rigid welded breakaway sign stand, are staples in construction zones due to their robustness and resilience. These stands are designed to withstand harsh conditions and are ideal for areas requiring high visibility and stability. Stands are offered in 10 foot or 12 foot heights, designed to hold 36” or 48” signs, and crash tested in accordance with FHWA regulations for temporary traffic control devices in work zone areas.

Bolt Down Sign Stands

Bolt down sign stands are known for their permanence and stability. Options like the surface mount telespar sign post system and the flat surface mount concrete base telespar sign post system offer secure mounting solutions for various surfaces. The breakaway surface mount u-channel sign post system adds an extra layer of safety by breaking away upon impact, minimizing damage to vehicles and the stand itself.
