  Sign Post Anchor System for Street and Traffic Signs

Post Anchor  Post and Stub Puller

 

PostLock sign post anchors are designed to stop vandals, secure signs, and save you money!

This product has been used across the Pacific Northwest since 1988 and is currently installed on thousands of street and traffic signs.   Our primary customers are city and county sign shops that have the responsibility to maintain road signs mounted on 4x4 wood posts.   When a sign is pulled from the ground by vandals, the maintenance crew re-installs the post with an anchor and the problem is solved... for good.   According to our customers, over time, the incidence of vandalism has dropped dramatically by the use of our anchors which saves time, money and hassle.  

Potential  applications: Street and traffic signs, real estate signs, mailboxes, or any other wood post mounted sign.  This anchor provides a low cost and reliable alternative to replacing wood posts with costly metal posts, or other expensive anchor products.   

How it works: This anchor uses firmly packed earth to resist the lifting force of vandals.  To install, the anchor is nailed to the base of a wood sign post (with nails provided in kit) and then buried.  The product is made with injection molded polycarbonate for years of reliable service, and includes a patented breakaway release feature to ensure easy sign post removal or replacement by maintenance crews.   This product will resist over 500 pounds of upward force, which should stop most teenage vandals.

PostLock anchors have an engineered "breakaway" release feature.   To release a buried anchor from the post, either strike the top of the anchor sharply with a solid steel bar, or extract the post with a mechanical sign post puller.  

Packaging:  Anchors are delivered in individually packaged kits (see picture).   Each kit includes anchor, galvanized nails and installation instructions.

The PostLock sign post puller, makes removal of broken wood sign posts quick and simple.   This tool easily extracts a 4x4 wood post from the ground in seconds.  What is unique about our product, is it will also extract a sign post stub, broken off at GROUND LEVEL.    There is no other product on the market that will stubs as quickly or easily as our product.

 

Step 1: Using the steel bar as a slide hammer, drive the puller down into the ground along side the post (or stub).

 

Step 2: Pull on the bar (to approximately 45 degrees).

 

Step 3. Strike the puller (with the steel bar) to drive the two sharp teeth into the wood post.  

 

Step 4: Push the bar downward to raise and extract the post (or stub).  

The PostLock Sign Post Puller is the preferred method for easily removing any 4x4 wood post equipped with a PostLock anchor.   This quality product is made of 4130 heat treated steel, hot dip galvanized, and coated with epoxy enamel for years of trouble free service.
