Sign Stand

A mainstay cycle parking stand with integrated high-level signage

The sign stand combines the utility of a standard Sheffield stand with a cycle parking sign mounted at 2.7 meters for visibility from a distance. With blue reflective backing and the familiar highway code style bicycle icon, the sign stand instantly alerts cyclists in the carriageway to the presence of cycle parking.

Each stand features a tapper plate, ensuring visually impaired pedestrians can easily detect the stand with a cane.

Fixing options

Root fixed – The stand is set 300mm into the groundwork, in concrete pockets. The ends are crimped to prevent removal. This option is suitable for projects where the groundwork is being completed at the same time; surfacing or paving can then be laid flush with the tubing. Root fixed stands can be fitted to existing groundwork by digging 200 x 200 x 300mm concrete pockets.

Surface mount – Surface mounting is suitable for projects where the groundwork has already been completed. We supply 75mm expanding ground anchors with all surface mount stands. The groundwork must be robust and over 100mm deep. Surface mounted stands can also be secured with threaded rods and chemical adhesive, and fixed with shear nuts to prevent removal with conventional tools.
