Why Sidewalk Signs Are a Must-Have — Especially in Summer

Summer brings longer days and more outdoor events. As foot traffic increases, it’s the perfect time to invest in high-impact signage. Sidewalk signs are ideal for:

• Retail storefronts

• Restaurants and cafés

• Pop-up shops

• Outdoor events and tradeshows

• Directional signage for large venues or campuses

  
  

Unlike hand-written messages on old chalkboards, custom-designed sidewalk signs offer professional, polished curb appeal. A bright, bold A-frame sign gives customers a clear and inviting reason to walk through your doors.

Our A-Frame Sign Options: Materials That Match Your Brand

At C.P. Richards, we offer versatile, durable sidewalk signs suitable for any season—sun, rain, or wind. Our in-house design and fabrication team will help you choose the best fit based on your style, location, and usage.

Plastic A-Frame Signs with Coroplast Inserts – Lightweight, Flexible, and Built for Change

Plastic A-frame signs are the ultimate all-purpose sidewalk sign. They are tough enough for outdoor use, yet light enough to move wherever you need attention. They are a top choice for businesses that frequently update their promotions or event messaging.

Why Plastic A-Frames Work for So Many Businesses

• Weather-resistant and durable in sun, wind, or rain

• Easy to move—great for pop-ups, farmers markets, and daily specials

• Coroplast inserts slide in and out in seconds

• Affordable seasonal updates—just reorder the inserts, not the whole frame

  
  

Use them for daily deals, grand openings, limited-time offers, or even wayfinding signage. We can print new coroplast inserts on demand, and our in-house design team can match your branding every time.

Metal A-Frame Signs – Heavy-Duty, Professional, and Built to Last

For businesses that prefer a premium and durable sidewalk sign, metal A-frames are the way to go. These are ideal for high-traffic storefronts or wind-prone areas where lightweight signs just don't cut it.

Available in arched or squared-off styles, our metal frames are both functional and visually sharp.

Choose Your Display Style

• Coroplast inserts for easy swapping and seasonal flexibility

• Printed aluminum composite (ACM) panels for a sleek, permanent look

• Removable vinyl lettering for customizable messages that you can update anytime

  
  

Reusable Customization with Vinyl Lettering

We can produce custom-cut vinyl lettering that applies cleanly to your metal A-frame and peels off without damaging the surface. This means:

• No ghosting

• No sticky residue

• No mess

  
  

Benefits of Our Removable Vinyl Lettering

• Affordable updates: just reorder the vinyl

• Easy application and removal

• Clean, professional look

• Durable in outdoor conditions

• Custom fonts, colors, and layouts available

Chalkboard & Dry Erase A-Frame Signs – Casual, Custom, and Easy to Update

If you’re aiming for a laid-back, approachable vibe, chalkboard and dry erase A-frame signs are excellent choices. These signs are perfect for businesses that love to update messages on the fly—whether it's today’s lunch special, a quirky quote, or event reminders.

They are especially popular with coffee shops, bars, food trucks, and boutiques that want to keep things casual and conversational.

Why Businesses Love These Signs

• Easily updated by your staff with chalk or dry erase markers

• Great for daily specials, rotating menus, or playful messaging

• Reusable and cost-effective

• Brings a touch of personality and charm to your storefront

  
  

Want the best of both worlds? Ask us about combining a printed logo or brand element with a writable space. This allows you to keep your visual identity strong while switching up your messages.

Full-Color Printed ACM Panels – Premium Signage That Pops

For a high-end, full-color sidewalk sign, printed ACM (aluminum composite material) panels are the best choice. These panels offer the sharpest detail and the richest colors, along with the longest-lasting durability of all our sign options. They are perfect for branding, menus, hours of operation, or promotional content, ensuring your message makes an impression that sticks.

What Makes ACM Panels Stand Out

• Vibrant, high-resolution printing with UV protection

• Weatherproof and fade-resistant

• Rigid, sleek, and ultra-professional

  
  

These panels can be inserted into our metal A-frame stands or mounted as standalone signs. Whether setting up at a tradeshow or dressing up your storefront, ACM signs deliver maximum visual impact with minimum maintenance.
