Coroplast Sign Installation - H-Stakes
1. Align wire stake with the flutes that are closest to the alignment dots on face of the sign. If the sign does not have alignment dots, use your best judgement.
2. Slide stake into sign. Note: Stake should slide in easily. The incorrect photo below shows the wire frames place one hole further apart than neccessary.

Incorrect Installation
3. Press stake into ground by pressing foot on lower rod. Note: For best results alternate pressure from left to right until the lower rod is level with the ground.
Additional Tips
- Horizontal flutes are recommended for use with wood stakes, plastic stakes and tree installation.
- For wire stake installation, vertical flutes are neccessary
- Placing signs less than three feet away from roadway may cause it to lean due to draft from passing cars.
- In very hard soil, a cordless drill and long drill bit (8" x 1/4") can be used to pre-drill holes in the ground for the wire stakes.
