Adjustable Sign Stand Rentals

The small sign of the event — the one that says which desk, which door, which way. It takes the 8.5 × 11 in sheet you already printed and stands wherever you put it down.

Specifications

The window is smaller than the sheet.

The frame takes a letter sheet and overlaps its edges, so what a guest can actually read is the 10.2 × 7.8 in window rather than the full page. Keep the things that have to work — a logo, an arrow, a QR code — inside that area rather than running them to the edge of the paper. The stand is single-sided: one sheet, read from the front, on one round post over a 9.8 inch disc that needs no wall and no stanchion to lean on.

Where the small sign goes

Six jobs a letter-size stand does.

  • Naming a desk

    Registration, will-call, accreditation, coats. Wind the pole down toward 32 inches and the sheet sits at the height somebody already looking down at the desk is reading anyway.

  • Splitting a line

    A queue that has grown a second lane and nothing saying which is which. A stand at the fork does what no arrangement of posts and belts can: it names the two halves.

  • A doorway with a condition on it

    Members only, staff only, session in progress, please use the other entrance. It stands in front of the door and carries the message, with nothing fixed to the door, the frame or the glass.

  • The far end of a corridor

    Wound out to its full 49 inches the frame clears the shoulders in front of it. A sign at desk height down a busy hallway is read by whoever reaches it first and by nobody behind them.

  • A sponsor panel beside a product

    Specification, price, credit, terms — the small print of an activation, standing next to the thing it describes rather than somewhere along the wall behind it.

  • A sign that changes at lunch

    The same stand reading Registration at nine and Cloakroom at six. What it takes is a second sheet of letter paper, which is the one consumable every office and every print shop already has.

When the sheet is too small

A letter sheet does not read across a lobby.

Even wound out to 49 inches this carries one letter sheet on one face. Where the sign has to name an event to a room rather than a queue, the 22 × 28 in poster stand is the item: 60 inches tall, open on both faces and available in black or chrome.
