7 Best Practices For Buying Trail Signs And Posts
Well maintained trails create a safe and fun experience for novice and expert snowmobilers alike. One of the easiest and budget friendly methods of increasing the visual appeal of your trails is by using high quality signage and posts.
Increase the conspicuity (brightness) of your signage by using a higher standard of retro-reflective sheeting.
Consider an upgrade from Type 3 Engineering Grade to 3M brand Type 4 High-Intensity, sheeting.
Use a sign fabricator that’s approved by the sheeting manufacturer.

When possible go directly to the manufacturer or regional distributor instead of purchasing trail signage from resellers. Supply Rite has you covered. We manufacture our trail signage in-house and are the Eastern Canadian Distributor of Delineator posts!
