Hello All-

It has taken me much longer than I would have liked to get this page up-to-date, but it finally happened today. We are now in full production of the offerings outlined below.   Unfortunately, I have not been able to expand my product offerings yet, as I would have liked (numbers only plaques, vertical numbers plaques, a second font option, etc)...but that is in the works.

===  Pricing ===
Wall Mount - $110 each plus shipping
Ground Mount - $130 each plus shipping
Fence Mount - $130 each plus shipping

Configurations - Wall mounted signs is exactly what the name implies.....signs mounted on walls, solid fences, or any other solid surfaces.  We include mollies and screws for concrete and masonry mounting, and the same screws can be used to mount directly to wood.  Ground mounted signs are mounted on 20" long x 1/4" round aluminum bars.  We are working on a larger diameter post which would enable longer posts, but there will be an additional fee over the standard ground mount option for shipping reasons.  Fence mounted signs are
signs which will be mounted on fences where standard screws won't work (like wrought iron fences with pickets every 4", etc).  We provide a second back plate that goes on the back side of the fence to create a very nice finished look.  We do need to know the thickness of the pickets for this option in order to provide the appropriate length mounting screws.

Material - All our signs are made from aluminum, and consist of a front plate, a back plate and all stainless steel fasteners/washers required for installation.

Pricing Per Character - The pricing shown above is the total flat rate price per sign.  There are no additional fees based on number of characters.  I can fit approximately 5 numbers on the first line, and 11 letters on the 2nd line.

Shapes - We currently only offer the one shape, as shown below.  Based on all of your requests, we intend to offer a few additional shapes to accommodate different configurations such as numbers only (horizontal), and numbers only (vertical), but no time table has been set for completing those at this time.  I would like to think I'd have those available by July 15, 2011 but there is no guarantee on that date at this time.

Font - We currently only offer the one font, as shown below.  We have found that most folks are satisfied with the font we are using.  We may offer an additional font option as we build out our product line, but that is lower on the priority list of items to be addressed at this time.

Colors - We currently offer 5 colors which can be applied as desired to front and back plates:
1)Black 2)Black Aged Iron (blackish grey) 3)Hammered Copper  4)Gold  5)Brushed Aluminum (natural aluminum with brush marks)
All of our paint is Rustoleum spray paint as found at your local hardware store.  We typically pick paints with some mild texture or add texture to smooth paints as that helps hide minor surface imperfections and actually lends itself to a richer looking sign (in our opinion).

Sealer - We add a topcoat of a very expensive, spray on clear laquer to our signs which helps with scratch resistance while handling, but more importantly, it has a UV inhibitor to help prevent the colors from fading and washing out over time.

Shipping - $15 via UPS Ground for anywhere in continental US.  We try to ship all orders within 2 weeks of receipt. Below is a picture of our shipping box.  If this is a ground mounted sign, the post run diagonal in the box, thus the 20" limit.

== TO ORDER ==
As of now, we do not have a formal online order system.  If you'd like to place an order, please use the Contact Us page to tell me what you'd like, and we'll go from there.  As for payment, I'll send you a payment request via email from my paypal account which will allow you to pay with either your paypal account or a credit card.
