# How do I mount or install my sign?

Installing your "For Sale" or "For Lease" sign is the final step in making your property launch official. Because every property has a different frontage, from brick walls to open lawns, our signs are designed to be versatile and easy to mount using basic hardware.

Your PropertyNow sign comes with 4 **pre-fitted eyelets** (grommets) to make installation as simple as possible. Depending on what is at the front of your property, here are the most effective ways to secure it:

### 1. Mounting to a fence
If you have a fence at the front of your property, this is usually the easiest option.
* **Chainwire or wire fences:** Simply use heavy-duty cable ties (zip ties) through the sign's eyelets to secure it directly to the wire.
* **Wooden or pine pickets:** You can either cable-tie the sign to individual pickets or use small screws with washers to fix the sign firmly in place.
* **Brick or concrete walls:** You will need a masonry drill bit and **dynabolts** or "green plugs" and screws to secure the sign into the mortar.

### 2. Installing on soft ground (lawn or garden)
If you don't have a fence, you will need to create a simple frame or support system.
* **Star pickets:** Purchase two star pickets from a hardware store like Bunnings. Hammer them into the ground and cable-tie the sign to the holes in the pickets.
* **Wooden stakes:** Use two sturdy timber garden stakes. You can screw the sign into the stakes before driving them into the ground.

### 3. Using a frame
If you want a more polished look or need the sign to be double-sided:
* You can build a simple timber A-frame or H-frame using pine from your local hardware store.
* Secure the sign to the frame using screws or ties before placing it in the desired location.

### Installation tips
* **Visibility matters:** Ensure the sign is not obscured by bushes, trees, or parked cars. It should be clearly visible to traffic coming from both directions.
* **Check your council rules:** Most local councils allow temporary real estate signage on private property, but it's always worth a quick check if you live in a strictly regulated area or a heritage zone.
* **Please note:** Due to the variety of mounting conditions and the weight of various mounting equipment, **we do not provide mounting hardware** (like zip ties or pickets) with the sign.
* **Hardware store advice:** Your local hardware team will be more than happy to help you select the right ties, screws, or pickets specific to your fence type or ground conditions.

PropertyNow doesn't offer a sign installation service for standard signs or photosigns.
