Affordable, eye-catching A-board signs for Manchester shops, cafes, bars and businesses. Promote your offers, daily specials and services right where your customers are walking.
A-board signs in Manchester — also called pavement signs or sandwich boards — are one of the simplest and most effective tools for driving walk-in trade. Placed directly outside your door, they catch the eye of passing pedestrians at exactly the moment they’re deciding where to go.
We supply and print a-board signs for businesses all over Greater Manchester. From a cafe on Deansgate promoting its lunch deal, to a pub in Didsbury advertising live sport, to a salon in Chorlton running a seasonal offer — a well-designed a-board brings customers through the door.
Our a-boards come in a range of frame styles — snap-frame, chalkboard, poster-pocket and premium pavement sign frames — with fully custom printed graphic inserts that we produce in our own print studio. Replaceable panels mean you can update your message without replacing the whole board.
We offer a wide variety of styles, materials and finishes to suit every budget and brand.
Quick-change poster snap frames on an A-board stand — just pop the frame open, swap your graphic and snap it closed. No tools, no fuss. Ideal for promotions that change regularly.
Classic blackboard surface for hand-written messages and daily specials. Available with natural wood or powder-coated steel frames — a timeless choice for cafes and restaurants.
Heavy-duty weighted pavement sign frames designed to stay put in Manchester winds. Large display area with water-resistant printed or chalk-effect graphics.
All our a-board graphic inserts are printed on weatherproof material with UV-resistant inks — so your sign looks sharp even after a downpour. No warping, no fading.
Both faces of your a-board can carry different messages — catch customers coming from both directions on the same footpath with two separate promotions.
Lockable transparent poster pockets protect your printed graphic from the elements. Perfect for menus, price lists and promotional materials that need to stay legible in all weathers.
We design and print all graphic inserts ourselves — no outsourcing, no delays. Get your a-board artwork and frames ordered and delivered together as a complete package.
Your a-board graphics are printed in your brand colours using Pantone-referenced inks. Consistent, professional and exactly on-brand every time.

Your frame will outlast your promotions. We print and supply replacement graphic inserts at a low cost — so you can keep your a-board fresh without buying a new one.
From first enquiry to final installation — here’s what to expect when you work with us.
