Sidewalk & Pavement Signs
Sidewalk & pavement signs are made to stop people in their tracks. Perfect for cafés, shop fronts, galleries, and markets, they’re a simple way to share daily specials, directions, or events right where the foot traffic is. Lightweight and portable, they can be moved as needed — making them ideal for businesses that update their message often.
At George & Willy, we’ve taken the classic outdoor business pavement sign and given it a clean, modern update. Crafted from powder-coated aluminium, our signs are durable, rust-resistant, and designed to look good in any setting.
Whether you’re pointing customers to your café, announcing a pop-up, or drawing attention to your shopfront, a George & Willy pavement/sidewalk shop front signage option is the design-led way to do it.
Are sidewalk and pavement signs suitable for outdoor use?
Yes — our sidewalk and pavement signs are designed for outdoor use, with weather-resistant finishes and durable materials. If you’re looking for signage that stays fixed outdoors long-term, you might also considerour aluminum metal signs, Blade Signs or Hanging Signs, which mount directly to your building and don’t need to be moved daily.
Do I need council approval for a sidewalk sign?
This depends on your local council regulations. Many councils allow removable business signs during trading hours, provided they don’t obstruct footpaths. If you’re in an area with stricter rules, alternatives like Wall Signs or Door Signs can be a good way to display key information without using pavement space.
What signage works well if I don’t have space for a sidewalk sign?
If footpath space is limited, Window Signs, Hanging Signs, or Blade Signs are great alternatives. These options keep your signage visible from the street without taking up any pavement space.
What’s the best sidewalk sign for cafés and hospitality?
For cafés and hospitality spaces, A-Frame Signs and Sandwich Boards are popular for sharing daily specials, menus, or opening hours. Pairing a pavement sign with Wall Signs or Hanging Signs near your entrance can help create a clear visual flow from the street to inside your space.
