Our heaviest sign material
Our heavy 24 gauge (slightly less thick than a credit card) is a rigid sign material that does not bend or bow., making it perfect for hanging from a post. Steel Signs come with a thin galvanized coating to help protect against rust and corrosion. We also apply a white polyester coating onto the galvanized coating to produce a clean smooth high gloss finish. Note: Rusting can and will occur to any area of the sign where these protective coatings have been chipped, worn, or scratched. Steel is also a heavy material, so shipping fees will be slightly higher than other materials. For extra durability and to avoid scratching, consider upgrading your sign with our Sign Shield laminate.
- Most commonly displayed with posts

- Will rust if chipped or scratched

Polyethylene "Poly"
This popular economic plastic sign material is .100 thick (i.e. about the thickness of three credit cards.), extremely durable, and performs well in all weather conditions. Polyethylene signs last up to 3 years in most conditions. Polyethylene, due to its natural properties, will sometimes "bow", being more apparent on darker sign panels and/or imprints, and as material ages and is not recommended has a hanging sign. A more durable alternative to poly is our 3 mm alumibond or .040 aluminum. Oakley Signs & Graphics will not replace any poly material that bows due to natural causes. For extra durability and to avoid scratching, consider upgrading your sign with our Sign Shield laminate.
