Rules • Amenities • Safety • Wayfinding — browse by category Most pedestrian areas require about seven feet of clearance from the sidewalk to the bottom edge of the sign. Rural locations often allow around five feet, but local codes may vary. As a general rule, posts are set two to three feet deep, or about one-third of the total post length. Soil type and frost conditions may call for deeper installation. U-channel posts are economical and simple to install for smaller signs. Square tubing offers more rigidity and makes it easier to stack multiple signs. Round posts are common in municipal settings and for use with specialty brackets. A breakaway system is designed to give way if struck by a vehicle, reducing crash impact. They are usually required when posts are within the clear zone of a roadway. Yes, posts can be anchored in concrete for extra stability. In road clear zones, however, the base must still meet breakaway requirements, and drainage should be provided to avoid corrosion. For signs around 24 × 30 inches, a heavier U-channel or a small square tube is often recommended. Larger or stacked signs may require stronger posts. In residential streets, posts are commonly offset 6 to 12 inches from the back of curb. Higher-speed roads may require more clearance for safety.
