Common questions
Which is cheaper, an A-board or post and panel?
An A-board costs from £66.00 and a post and panel sign from £122.08 inc VAT. Prices come straight from our online calculator, so they always match what you pay at checkout.
How long do they take to make and deliver?
An A-board takes 3 working days and a post and panel sign 2 to 3 working days to make at our Manchester production HQ, counted from proof approval. Standard UK delivery £9.95 (3 to 5 working days), free on orders over £150 inc VAT. Next day delivery £14.95.
Do I need permission to put an A-board on the pavement?
Usually, yes. Pavements are normally highway land, so you need the council's permission to place an A-board there, and many councils set their own rules on size and position. Check with your council before you put one out.
What are post and panel signs made of?
Printed panels, typically aluminium composite (ACM) or Foamex, mounted securely on posts.

We recently used Liberty Signs after having new cladding to our business premises. We were very impressed with the service, from the initial contact to the final installation. The team was efficient, professional, and helpful throughout the process, making everything straightforward from start to finish. The quality of the signage was excellent, delivered on time, and exactly what we wanted. We'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for great service and high-quality signage.

Nothing is ever to much even when I’ve had adjustments made to the sign wrapping further down the line. I would 100% reccomend Liberty signs.
