    What Are Sandwich Boards

    Sandwich boards, also known as A-frame signs, are freestanding double-sided signs designed to be placed on sidewalks, storefront entrances, or indoor walkways. Their foldable structure makes them easy to move, store, and reposition throughout the day.

    Sandwich boards are commonly used for:

    • Sidewalk advertising
    • Daily specials and promotions
    • Open house and real estate signage
    • Directional signage
    • Event announcements
    • Temporary outdoor messaging

    They work where permanent signage cannot.

    Why Sandwich Boards Work So Well

    Sandwich boards perform because they interact directly with foot traffic. They are placed at eye level for pedestrians and can be updated frequently to reflect current offers.

    Key benefits include:

    • Immediate visibility to passersby
    • No installation required
    • Easy to move and reposition
    • Cost-effective marketing tool
    • Ideal for daily or weekly promotions

    In busy Vancouver streets, a well-designed sandwich board can stop people mid-walk.

    Ideal for Businesses That Depend on Walk-Ins

    Sandwich boards are especially effective for businesses that rely on spontaneous visits.

    Common users include:

    • Cafés and coffee shops
    • Restaurants and bars
    • Retail stores and boutiques
    • Salons and fitness studios
    • Bakeries and food trucks

    They help convert foot traffic into customers.

    Materials Used for Sandwich Boards

    Choosing the right material ensures durability and stability, especially outdoors.

    A-Frame Plastic Sandwich Boards

    Plastic A-frame boards are weather-resistant and suitable for daily outdoor use. They are lightweight yet stable enough for sidewalk placement.

    Metal Frame Sandwich Boards

    Metal sandwich boards offer a more premium appearance and added durability. They are often used for higher-end retail or long-term placement.

    Printed Insert Boards

    Some sandwich boards use printed inserts that can be replaced easily, allowing businesses to update promotions without replacing the entire frame.

    High-Quality Printing for Sandwich Boards

    Print clarity is critical for sandwich boards because messages must be readable at a glance. Our printing focuses on bold text, strong contrast, and clean visuals.

    Printing features include:

    • High-resolution graphics
    • Clear, readable typography
    • Durable finishes for outdoor use
    • Consistent color reproduction

    Your message needs to be understood in seconds.

    Custom Sizes and Double-Sided Printing

    Sandwich boards are printed double-sided to maximize exposure from both directions of foot traffic.

    Customization options include:

    • Standard or custom sizes
    • Double-sided printing
    • Simple text layouts or full graphics
    • Brand colors and logos

    We help design layouts that work in real street conditions.

    Sandwich Boards vs Other Outdoor Signage

    Sandwich boards serve a different role than fixed outdoor signs.

    Compared to permanent signs:

    • No permits required in many cases
    • Easy repositioning
    • Ideal for temporary messaging

     

    Compared to banners:

    • Freestanding and stable
    • Better readability at close range
    • More professional appearance

    They are a flexible addition to any signage strategy.

    Weather Considerations in Vancouver

    Outdoor sandwich boards must handle rain and moisture. We recommend materials and finishes suitable for Vancouver’s climate to reduce wear and maintain appearance.

    Our approach includes:

    • Weather-resistant materials
    • Secure frame designs
    • Print finishes designed for outdoor exposure

    This ensures your board remains usable day after day.

    Bulk Orders and Multi-Location Use

    Sandwich boards are often ordered in multiples for franchises or multi-location businesses to maintain consistent branding.

    Bulk orders are ideal for:

    • Retail chains
    • Café groups
    • Real estate agencies
    • Event organizers

    Volume pricing is available.
