How to install our surface-mounted Triplex powder-coated mild steel signposts.
- Choose the location: Determine where you want to place your signpost. Position the signpost in the desired location on the surface (concrete or asphalt).
- Mark drilling points: Using a marker, outline the holes on the base plate onto the surface. This will guide you where to drill.
- Pre-drill holes: Using a hammer drill with a masonry bit, drill holes into the surface where you marked. The depth of the holes should match the length of your concrete anchor bolts.
- Insert anchor bolts: After the holes have been drilled, clean out any dust or debris. Then, insert the concrete anchor bolts into the holes.
- Position the signpost: Position the base plate attached to the signpost over the anchor bolts. Ensure the bolts align with the holes in the base plate.
- Secure the signpost: Tighten the nuts onto the anchor bolts, thereby securing the signpost to the surface. Use a spanner or socket set to make sure the nuts are securely tightened.
- Check the post: Using a level tool, check to ensure the signpost is straight. If necessary, make adjustments by loosening and retightening the nuts.
- Final check: After making sure the post is level, give all the nuts a final tightening to ensure the signpost is secure.
