Where private road signs are used

Subdivision associations post these where a private road meets a public street, so delivery drivers and map apps know the road is not a shortcut. Farm owners use one at a field lane that opens onto county pavement. A shared driveway that serves three homes may need one at the first junction. The sign asks outside traffic to turn back before it drives down a road that serves only residents, and it saves the owners from waving cars off one at a time.

Choosing the size and where to hang it

Mount the 36 by 24 inch size on a post at the junction, where a driver decides whether to turn in, and use the 18 by 12 inch size on a driveway gate or a smaller side lane. Aluminum with corner holes is a steady pick for a post outdoors all year. Choose reflective aluminum for a road used at dusk, since the sign catches headlights. Set the post back from the pavement so a mower or plow does not clip it.

Questions about private road signs

Will these work on a post at the road?

Yes. Choose round corners and the hole punch option and mount them on a standard sign post.

Can I add a line about residents and guests?

Yes. Type the line in the Extra line box, such as Residents and guests only, and it prints beneath the two main lines. Switch the box off if you want just the main words. The live preview shows exactly how the lines sit on the sign before you order.

Which material should I choose for a road sign?

Aluminum suits a sign that stays on a post all year. Plastic is light, so it fits a sign you move between entries or set out for only a few weeks. Reflective aluminum is the pick if the road is used after dark, because the sign shines back in headlights.
