Flutes are the tunnels on a 4 mil corrugated sign when looking at it from the edge, similar to a heavy duty cardboard. When using an h-wire or heavy duty stake you will need to select vertical flutes. The flutes are used as a channel for the h-wire stake prongs to be funneled through vertically to display the sign upright. If you are wanting a 48” foot push stake we strongly recommend selecting horizontal flutes. The flutes will help against wind. If the sign has vertical flutes on a 48” stake when the wind blows the sign will taco around the stake.

Determining the best stake for a sign is easier than it looks! There are three levels of stakes that we offer. Listed from least to most sturdy; standard h-wire stake, heavy duty h-wire stake, and 48” foot push stake. The h-wire stake is our standard stake we use for temporary yard signs and the majority of our political candidates. If you are looking for something that is a step up from the standard stake, we suggest using a heavy duty h-wire stake. This has a bit more umph. Lastly, our most sturdy stake is our 48” angle iron stake. This is the best option when going up against the infamous Texas dirt (rock?). Please see above for the best flutes to use for each stake.​

A grommet is a metal eyelet that is used for hanging or mounting signs. We are able to grommet banners, corrugated plastic, max metal, or aluminum at request.

A windslit is a horizontal half moon cut into a banner to allow wind to pass through the material. We strongly recommend adding windslits to all banners that will be displayed in an open area between two posts.

We offer a wide variety of stakes, frames and posts for all yard sign needs.
