Frequently Asked Questions
Can A-boards be used outdoors?
Yes – our weatherproof aluminium and treated wooden A-boards are designed for outdoor use. For windy streets or exposed areas, we recommend wind-resistant or waterbase models.
What size A-board is best for my business?
A2 is ideal for compact pavements and shop entrances, while A1 boards provide maximum visibility on busy high streets, forecourts, or outdoor dining areas.
Are wooden A-boards durable enough for UK weather?
Yes – all of our wooden A-boards are treated for weather resistance. They offer a rustic charm, though we recommend placing them under some cover for long-term use.
How do I change posters or menus inside an A-board?
Most designs feature a hinged or snap frame system that allows posters or chalkboards to be swapped quickly without tools.
Are A-boards suitable for weddings or private events?
Absolutely – rustic wooden A-boards are a popular choice for weddings, parties, and markets. They’re perfect for welcome messages, directions, or themed décor.
Do you sell chalkboard A-boards?
Yes – our chalk A-boards allow you to update messages instantly. They’re ideal for restaurants and pubs promoting daily specials.
How stable are A-boards in windy conditions?
Standard models are stable in calm weather, but for exposed areas we recommend a wind-resistant A-board or a waterbase sign for maximum stability.
Can I brand A-boards with my company logo?
Yes – we offer custom branding on large orders. This ensures your A-boards not only display your promotions but also reinforce your brand identity.
