Sidewalk Signage
Sidewalk Signs That Stop Foot Traffic
A weighted A-frame on the sidewalk is the cheapest storefront sign you can buy, and the only one you can move to where the people actually are.

What a Sidewalk A-Frame Sign Is
A sidewalk sign, also called an A-frame or a sandwich board, is a free-standing two-sided sign that folds flat. Ours are genuine Plasticade Signicade frames: a hollow plastic body you fill with sand or water so wind does not walk it into the street, with a full color printed graphic on each face.
We sell three frames. The Standard Signicade takes a printed adhesive vinyl graphic applied straight onto the 24 inch by 36 inch face, which gives the cleanest edge-to-edge look. The Deluxe Signicade has drop-in recesses that take a 24 inch by 36 inch coroplast insert, so you can swap the message in seconds without touching the frame, and it comes in white or black. The Simposign II is the lightweight drop-in option at 22 inches by 28 inches, in white.
Complete signs start at $249.99 for a Standard Signicade with a graphic on one face. Replacement graphics on their own start at $69.99. Every frame and graphic is produced next day.
How the Three Frames Differ
Standard Signicade, from $249.99
24 inch by 36 inch adhesive vinyl graphic applied directly to a white hollow frame. $249.99 with one printed face, $269.99 with both. Graphic only is $69.99 or $89.99.
Deluxe Signicade, from $349.99
Drop-in recesses take swap-out 24 inch by 36 inch coroplast inserts. White or black frame. $349.99 with one printed face, $379.99 with both. Inserts are $79.99 or $99.99.
Simposign II, from $259.99
The lightweight drop-in frame, 22 inch by 28 inch coroplast inserts, white frame. $259.99 with one printed face, $279.99 with both. Inserts are $69.99 or $89.99.
Weighted, Not Anchored
Each hollow frame fills with sand or water, so it holds position in wind and still folds flat and moves indoors at close.
Next Business Day Production
Every frame and every graphic in this category is produced next day once your proof is approved.
Genuine Plasticade
All three are real Plasticade frames, not a look-alike shell, which is why the hinges and the graphic recesses hold up to daily folding.
Deluxe, Black Frame
Drop-in inserts swap the message without moving the frame.
Simposign II
The lighter 22 inch by 28 inch frame for tight sidewalks.
How an A-Frame Order Runs

Print and Ship
Produced next day, then packed and shipped. Fill the base with sand or water when it arrives.

Sidewalk Sign FAQ
A complete sign starts at $249.99 for a Standard Signicade with a printed graphic on one face, $269.99 with both faces printed. A Simposign II is $259.99 or $279.99, and a Deluxe Signicade is $349.99 or $379.99. Replacement graphics on their own start at $69.99.
Buy the Standard Signicade if the message stays the same, because an adhesive vinyl graphic applied to the face gives the cleanest look. Buy the Deluxe Signicade or the Simposign II if you change the message often, because both take drop-in inserts you can swap in seconds and keep on hand.
Standard and Deluxe Signicade frames take a 24 inch by 36 inch graphic on each face. The Simposign II takes 22 inches by 28 inches.
Not if you fill it. All three frames have a hollow base designed to take sand or water, which is what holds the sign down. An unfilled A-frame is the one that ends up in the parking lot.
Frames and graphics are both produced next day once you approve your free digital proof, then they ship to you.
Yes. Every frame in this category sells its graphic separately, from $69.99 for a Standard or Simposign II face and $79.99 for a Deluxe insert, so a frame you already own only needs new artwork.
