A1 Black Weatherproof A-Board Pavement Sign with Anti-Glare Screens, Lever Handle and Wheels
The PSPLBK A1 black A-board is Displaysense's best-selling pavement sign because it solves the practical problems that stop businesses using their outdoor signage consistently. A double-sided A1 display with anti-glare PET screens, tool-free snap frame poster changes, a weatherproof build for year-round British conditions, and a lever handle with front wheels that means one person can roll it in and out without effort. Chosen by retailers, restaurants, cafes, schools, NHS sites, event venues and local authorities, it simply gets used, every single day.
Key Features
- Lever Handle and Front Wheels: Tilt and roll rather than lift and carry. The built-in lever handle and front wheels mean one person can move this 14.55kg sign in and out effortlessly, every day, without it ever feeling like a chore.
- Anti-Glare PET Poster Screens: Both sides are fitted with anti-glare PET screens that keep your poster sharp and readable in all light conditions, including direct sunlight, without reflective glare obscuring your message.
- A1 Double-Sided Display: Two full A1 poster faces visible from opposite directions, maximising exposure to pedestrians and passing vehicles from a single unit placed outside your premises.
- Snap Frame Poster Change: Open the border, swap the poster, close the border. No tools, no adhesive, no wasted time. Practical enough for daily updates, menus, rotating promotions or urgent messaging.
- Weatherproof Construction: Built to handle regular outdoor use in British weather conditions. The corrosion-resistant frame and protective screens keep the sign looking professional through rain, wind and sun.
- Folds Flat for Storage: Collapses to a compact flat profile for end-of-day storage, multi-unit stacking or transport between locations.
- Professional Black Finish: A clean, neutral black that suits shopfronts, restaurant entrances, hotel forecourts and institutional settings without clashing with existing exterior branding.
- UK-Specified Since 1978: Selected and supplied by Displaysense, trusted by thousands of businesses and organisations across the UK.
Complete Your Setup with Waterproof Posters
The sign is supplied blank and ready to go, but to get the most from it outdoors, we strongly recommend our A1 printing service on 220gsm waterproof polypropylene. Unlike paper, this stock handles rain, wind and UV exposure day after day without fading, crinkling or tearing. Supply your own artwork and we take care of everything else.

The Displaysense A1 black weatherproof A-board pavement sign (PSPLBK) is a double-sided outdoor A-frame poster display with snap frame edges, anti-glare PET screens, lever handle, front wheels, fold-flat design. Dimensions: 1135mm (H) x 690mm (W) x 735mm (D). Weight: 14.55kg. Accepts A1 posters (841mm x 594mm). Black weatherproof construction. Suitable for retail, cafes, restaurants, education, NHS, events, hospitality and public sector use. Displaysense best-selling pavement sign, UK-specified since 1978.
This is Displaysense's best-selling pavement sign, and it has earned that position through consistent real-world performance. The A1 black weatherproof A-board pavement sign accepts full A1 posters, changes them in seconds via snap frame edges, and rolls in and out on a built-in lever handle and front wheels so one person can manage it effortlessly every single day. Taken out every morning. Brought back in every evening. Used by retailers, cafes, restaurants, schools, NHS sites and event venues across the UK without fuss.
Weight is the reason most businesses leave their pavement sign indoors more than they should. At 14.55kg this is a substantial, solid sign built to stand firm, but the built-in lever handle and front wheels mean you never actually carry it. Tilt it back, roll it on the wheels and the sign is in or out in one smooth action. One person, no effort, no reason to skip it. For any business that relies on footfall, getting the sign out every single day is not optional.
The A-board stands at 1135mm tall and 690mm wide with a depth of 735mm when open. Two A1 snap frames face outward on each side, each protected by anti-glare PET screens that keep your posters sharp and readable without reflective glare even in direct sunlight. Swapping a poster takes under a minute: open the snap frame border, slide the old sheet out, slide the new one in, close the border. No tools, no fixings, no adhesive. The frame folds flat for storage and the lever and wheels make every in-and-out move a one-person job.
What makes an A-board a best seller is not one single feature. It is the combination of a size that commands attention on a pavement, a poster change mechanism that works under daily time pressure, anti-glare screens that keep messaging clear in all light conditions, a weatherproof build that holds up through British conditions year-round, and a lever-and-wheel system that removes the one practical obstacle that stops businesses using their sign consistently. This sign removes every excuse not to be out there, every day.

The Displaysense A1 black weatherproof A-board pavement sign (PSPLBK) is a double-sided outdoor A-frame poster display with snap frame edges, anti-glare PET screens, lever handle, front wheels, fold-flat design. Dimensions: 1135mm (H) x 690mm (W) x 735mm (D). Weight: 14.55kg. Accepts A1 posters (841mm x 594mm). Black weatherproof construction. Suitable for retail, cafes, restaurants, education, NHS, events, hospitality and public sector use. Displaysense best-selling pavement sign, UK-specified since 1978.
Every specification below is taken directly from the product. The A1 format is the largest standard poster size in everyday commercial use and this A-board presents it in full on both sides with anti-glare PET screens keeping your message sharp and legible in all conditions.
At 1135mm tall when open the sign sits at a natural reading height for pedestrians and is clearly visible from approaching vehicles. The 735mm open depth provides a stable A-frame footprint that resists tipping in light wind, and the lever handle with front wheels means the 14.55kg weight is never something you actually lift.
| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Height (open) | 1135mm | A comfortable reading height for standing pedestrians and tall enough to be seen above low street furniture and parked cars, giving your message maximum visibility from a distance. |
| Width | 690mm | Wide enough to present a full A1 poster with real visual impact while remaining compact enough to fit within a standard doorway recess or pavement bay without obstructing foot traffic. |
| Depth (open) | 735mm | The open A-frame stance creates a stable footprint that resists tipping in light wind without any additional weighting or floor fixing required. |
| Weight | 14.55kg | Solid and substantial enough to feel commercial-grade and stand firm outdoors. The lever handle and front wheels mean you roll it rather than carry it, so the weight is never a barrier to daily use. |
| Mobility | Lever handle and front wheels | Tilt the sign back using the lever handle and roll it on the front wheels. One person, one smooth movement, sign in or out in seconds. The practical solution that keeps this sign in daily use rather than left inside. |
| Poster Size Accepted | A1 (841mm x 594mm) | The largest standard poster size in everyday commercial use. Highly visible from a distance and suitable for menus, promotions, events, safety notices and wayfinding. |
| Display Sides | Double-sided | Two separate A1 poster faces, each visible from a different direction. Pedestrians approaching from either side receive your message, doubling exposure from a single unit. |
| Poster Change Mechanism | Snap frame border | Open the frame border on any side, slide out the old poster, slide in the new one, close the border. No tools, no adhesive, no downtime. Fast enough for daily menu updates or rotating promotions. |
| Poster Protection | Anti-glare PET screens | Anti-glare PET screens on both faces keep your posters sharp and readable without reflective glare even in direct sunlight. Your message stays visible and professional in all weather and light conditions. |
| Construction | Weatherproof plastic frame | Corrosion-resistant construction handles daily outdoor exposure without rusting, warping or surface degradation. Wipe down with a damp cloth to clean. No maintenance schedule required. |
| Finish | Black | Professional neutral black suits shopfronts, restaurant entrances, hotel forecourts and institutional settings equally well without clashing with existing exterior branding. |
| Fold and Storage | Folds flat | Collapses to a compact flat profile for end-of-day storage, multi-unit stacking or transport between sites. Stores efficiently in a corridor, stockroom or vehicle. |
| Suitable For | Outdoor daily use | Weatherproof for standard British outdoor conditions during trading hours. Bring indoors during severe weather, high winds or when premises are closed to maximise working life. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: It looks heavy. How easy is it to move in and out each day?
A: This is one of the most common concerns about pavement signs and this A-board is specifically designed to answer it. The built-in lever handle and front wheels mean you tilt it back and roll it rather than carry it. One person, one movement, sign in or out in seconds. The 14.55kg weight gives it the stability to stand firm outdoors, and the lever and wheels mean you never actually feel that weight when moving it.
Q: What are the poster screens made from and will they reduce glare?
A: Both sides are fitted with anti-glare PET screens specifically chosen to keep your poster sharp and legible in all light conditions, including direct sunlight. Unlike plain clear covers, the anti-glare surface prevents reflective glare from obscuring your message when the sun is low or shining directly onto the sign.
Q: Is this A-board suitable for outdoor use in British weather?
A: Yes. The sign is weatherproof and built for regular daily outdoor use in standard British conditions. The corrosion-resistant frame handles rain and moisture without rusting or warping, and the anti-glare PET screens protect your posters from the elements. We recommend bringing it indoors when the premises is closed, during severe weather or in very high winds to maximise its working life.
Q: How do I change the posters?
A: Open the snap frame border on the side you want to update, slide the existing poster out from behind the anti-glare PET screen, slide your new poster in, then close the border. The whole process takes under a minute per side with no tools required. Fast enough for daily menu updates or rotating promotions.
Q: What poster size does this A-board take?
A: This sign accepts standard A1 posters, which measure 841mm x 594mm. Both sides take the same format.
Q: Will it stay stable in windy conditions?
A: The open A-frame stance and 14.55kg weight provide solid stability in light to moderate wind. In strong or gusting conditions, position it in a sheltered spot such as a doorway recess or against a wall, or bring it indoors. This is standard practice for all outdoor pavement signs regardless of construction.
Q: Does it come with posters included?
A: No, the sign is supplied as a blank display unit ready to accept your own A1 printed posters. To get the most from it outdoors, we recommend our A1 printing service on 220gsm waterproof polypropylene. Unlike paper, this stock handles rain, wind and UV exposure without fading, crinkling or tearing. Exactly what you need for a poster that is out on the pavement every day.
Q: Is this suitable for schools, NHS sites or public sector premises?
A: Yes. Displaysense supplies this sign to schools, colleges, GP surgeries, hospitals, councils and local authorities across the UK. It works well for entrance communications, wayfinding, event notices and safety messaging. Public sector credit accounts are available. Call 01279 460 460 or visit our contact page for details.
Q: What is the frame made from?
A: The frame is made from durable weatherproof plastic with a corrosion-resistant construction. It handles daily outdoor exposure without rusting, warping or degrading, and cleans easily with a damp cloth.
Q: How do I clean and maintain it?
A: Wipe the frame down with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Clean the anti-glare PET screens with a soft damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners which can scratch the surface. No ongoing maintenance schedule is required beyond routine cleaning.
Q: Can I buy multiples for a business with several locations?
A: Yes. This is one of Displaysense's best-selling pavement signs and we supply it in volume to retail groups, hospitality chains, education providers and facilities management companies. Call us on 01279 460 460 for a tailored quote on larger orders.
Q: Can I place this on a public pavement outside my premises?
A: Placing a sign on a public pavement typically requires permission from your local council and may be subject to conditions around size and placement. Regulations vary by local authority so it is worth checking before placing any sign on the public highway. On a private forecourt or within your own premises entrance, no permission is generally required.
Knowledge Hub
An A-board placed outside your door is one of the most cost-effective marketing tools available to any business, but getting the most from it comes down to how consistently you use it and how well your messaging connects with passing customers. The right poster, the right placement and a regular update routine can make a measurable difference to footfall.

The Displaysense A1 black weatherproof A-board pavement sign (PSPLBK) is a double-sided outdoor A-frame poster display with snap frame edges, anti-glare PET screens, lever handle, front wheels, fold-flat design. Dimensions: 1135mm (H) x 690mm (W) x 735mm (D). Weight: 14.55kg. Accepts A1 posters (841mm x 594mm). Black weatherproof construction. Suitable for retail, cafes, restaurants, education, NHS, events, hospitality and public sector use. Displaysense best-selling pavement sign, UK-specified since 1978.
This is Displaysense's best-selling pavement sign, and it has earned that position through consistent real-world performance. The A1 black weatherproof A-board pavement sign accepts full A1 posters, changes them in seconds via snap frame edges, and rolls in and out on a built-in lever handle and front wheels so one person can manage it effortlessly every single day. Taken out every morning. Brought back in every evening. Used by retailers, cafes, restaurants, schools, NHS sites and event venues across the UK without fuss.
Weight is the reason most businesses leave their pavement sign indoors more than they should. At 14.55kg this is a substantial, solid sign built to stand firm, but the built-in lever handle and front wheels mean you never actually carry it. Tilt it back, roll it on the wheels and the sign is in or out in one smooth action. One person, no effort, no reason to skip it. For any business that relies on footfall, getting the sign out every single day is not optional.
The A-board stands at 1135mm tall and 690mm wide with a depth of 735mm when open. Two A1 snap frames face outward on each side, each protected by anti-glare PET screens that keep your posters sharp and readable without reflective glare even in direct sunlight. Swapping a poster takes under a minute: open the snap frame border, slide the old sheet out, slide the new one in, close the border. No tools, no fixings, no adhesive. The frame folds flat for storage and the lever and wheels make every in-and-out move a one-person job.
What makes an A-board a best seller is not one single feature. It is the combination of a size that commands attention on a pavement, a poster change mechanism that works under daily time pressure, anti-glare screens that keep messaging clear in all light conditions, a weatherproof build that holds up through British conditions year-round, and a lever-and-wheel system that removes the one practical obstacle that stops businesses using their sign consistently. This sign removes every excuse not to be out there, every day.

Every specification below is taken directly from the product. The A1 format is the largest standard poster size in everyday commercial use and this A-board presents it in full on both sides with anti-glare PET screens keeping your message sharp and legible in all conditions.
At 1135mm tall when open the sign sits at a natural reading height for pedestrians and is clearly visible from approaching vehicles. The 735mm open depth provides a stable A-frame footprint that resists tipping in light wind, and the lever handle with front wheels means the 14.55kg weight is never something you actually lift.
| Specification | Detail | What This Means for You |
|---|---|---|
| Height (open) | 1135mm | A comfortable reading height for standing pedestrians and tall enough to be seen above low street furniture and parked cars, giving your message maximum visibility from a distance. |
| Width | 690mm | Wide enough to present a full A1 poster with real visual impact while remaining compact enough to fit within a standard doorway recess or pavement bay without obstructing foot traffic. |
| Depth (open) | 735mm | The open A-frame stance creates a stable footprint that resists tipping in light wind without any additional weighting or floor fixing required. |
| Weight | 14.55kg | Solid and substantial enough to feel commercial-grade and stand firm outdoors. The lever handle and front wheels mean you roll it rather than carry it, so the weight is never a barrier to daily use. |
| Mobility | Lever handle and front wheels | Tilt the sign back using the lever handle and roll it on the front wheels. One person, one smooth movement, sign in or out in seconds. The practical solution that keeps this sign in daily use rather than left inside. |
| Poster Size Accepted | A1 (841mm x 594mm) | The largest standard poster size in everyday commercial use. Highly visible from a distance and suitable for menus, promotions, events, safety notices and wayfinding. |
| Display Sides | Double-sided | Two separate A1 poster faces, each visible from a different direction. Pedestrians approaching from either side receive your message, doubling exposure from a single unit. |
| Poster Change Mechanism | Snap frame border | Open the frame border on any side, slide out the old poster, slide in the new one, close the border. No tools, no adhesive, no downtime. Fast enough for daily menu updates or rotating promotions. |

| Finish | Black | Professional neutral black suits shopfronts, restaurant entrances, hotel forecourts and institutional settings equally well without clashing with existing exterior branding. |
| Fold and Storage | Folds flat | Collapses to a compact flat profile for end-of-day storage, multi-unit stacking or transport between sites. Stores efficiently in a corridor, stockroom or vehicle. |
| Suitable For | Outdoor daily use | Weatherproof for standard British outdoor conditions during trading hours. Bring indoors during severe weather, high winds or when premises are closed to maximise working life. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: It looks heavy. How easy is it to move in and out each day?
A: This is one of the most common concerns about pavement signs and this A-board is specifically designed to answer it. The built-in lever handle and front wheels mean you tilt it back and roll it rather than carry it. One person, one movement, sign in or out in seconds. The 14.55kg weight gives it the stability to stand firm outdoors, and the lever and wheels mean you never actually feel that weight when moving it.
Q: What are the poster screens made from and will they reduce glare?
A: Both sides are fitted with anti-glare PET screens specifically chosen to keep your poster sharp and legible in all light conditions, including direct sunlight. Unlike plain clear covers, the anti-glare surface prevents reflective glare from obscuring your message when the sun is low or shining directly onto the sign.
Q: Is this A-board suitable for outdoor use in British weather?
A: Yes. The sign is weatherproof and built for regular daily outdoor use in standard British conditions. The corrosion-resistant frame handles rain and moisture without rusting or warping, and the anti-glare PET screens protect your posters from the elements. We recommend bringing it indoors when the premises is closed, during severe weather or in very high winds to maximise its working life.
Q: How do I change the posters?
A: Open the snap frame border on the side you want to update, slide the existing poster out from behind the anti-glare PET screen, slide your new poster in, then close the border. The whole process takes under a minute per side with no tools required. Fast enough for daily menu updates or rotating promotions.
Q: What poster size does this A-board take?
A: This sign accepts standard A1 posters, which measure 841mm x 594mm. Both sides take the same format.
Q: Will it stay stable in windy conditions?
A: The open A-frame stance and 14.55kg weight provide solid stability in light to moderate wind. In strong or gusting conditions, position it in a sheltered spot such as a doorway recess or against a wall, or bring it indoors. This is standard practice for all outdoor pavement signs regardless of construction.
Q: Does it come with posters included?
A: No, the sign is supplied as a blank display unit ready to accept your own A1 printed posters. To get the most from it outdoors, we recommend our A1 printing service on 220gsm waterproof polypropylene. Unlike paper, this stock handles rain, wind and UV exposure without fading, crinkling or tearing. Exactly what you need for a poster that is out on the pavement every day.
Q: Is this suitable for schools, NHS sites or public sector premises?
A: Yes. Displaysense supplies this sign to schools, colleges, GP surgeries, hospitals, councils and local authorities across the UK. It works well for entrance communications, wayfinding, event notices and safety messaging. Public sector credit accounts are available. Call 01279 460 460 or visit our contact page for details.
Q: What is the frame made from?
A: The frame is made from durable weatherproof plastic with a corrosion-resistant construction. It handles daily outdoor exposure without rusting, warping or degrading, and cleans easily with a damp cloth.
Q: How do I clean and maintain it?
A: Wipe the frame down with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Clean the anti-glare PET screens with a soft damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners which can scratch the surface. No ongoing maintenance schedule is required beyond routine cleaning.
Q: Can I buy multiples for a business with several locations?
A: Yes. This is one of Displaysense's best-selling pavement signs and we supply it in volume to retail groups, hospitality chains, education providers and facilities management companies. Call us on 01279 460 460 for a tailored quote on larger orders.
Q: Can I place this on a public pavement outside my premises?
A: Placing a sign on a public pavement typically requires permission from your local council and may be subject to conditions around size and placement. Regulations vary by local authority so it is worth checking before placing any sign on the public highway. On a private forecourt or within your own premises entrance, no permission is generally required.

The right poster, the right placement and a regular update routine can make a measurable difference to footfall.
