This hardware is beneficial for intersections where the streets are not at a perpendicular angle, also known as a right angle. A traditional crosspiece only supports intersections where the two roads intersect at a 90-degree angle. This adjustable hardware allows the upper street name sign to be positioned at almost any angle relative to the bottom sign. The hardware installer can quickly configure this to match the actual angle the roads follow.

Details for Heavy Duty Adjustable Crosspiece for Street Name Signs:

Adjusts to any angle, then locks into position with locking teeth.
Bracket has 5.5" slot for flat street name signs.
Holds street name signs at different angles than traditional 90 degree street name sign crosspieces.
Includes set screws and nut/bolt for locking bracket.

Installation

The tools you’ll need for assembly are a Multi-Bit Screwdriver fitted with a 1/2” bit and a 5/32” Vandal-Resistant Allen Key. Note that the angle adjustment should be completed before installing the crosspiece bracket onto the first sign. The multi-bit screwdriver doesn’t have access to the bolt and nut when the bracket is already installed.

Adjusting the angle of the crosspiece bracket:

Locate bolt head and press down with your thumb.
Use the screwdriver on the opposite end and loosen nut slightly, until the two halves of the crosspiece bracket can be pulled apart and rotated.
Orient the halves of the crosspiece bracket to the desired angle and hold the halves together.
Press thumb on bolt head and tighten the nut with the screwdriver.

Many customers find it easier to mount street name signs with the sign post on the ground or propped onto a stable surface. Alternatively, some customers prefer to mount street name signs onto the standing sign post using a ladder. For the instructions below, we assume that the street name sign directly above the post is already installed, and that the sign post is propped to easily access both sides of the mounting hardware.

Installing the crosspiece bracket onto street name signs

Center the crosspiece bracket relative to the street name sign and insert the sign into the slot.
Use the vandal-resistant Allen key to tighten the small bolt on the face of the crosspiece bracket. This will secure the sign onto the bracket.
Repeat Step 2 for the identical small bolt on the back of the bracket.

Follow the above steps to affix the second street name sign above the first. To remove the street name signs, hold the sign steady and use the Allen key to loosen the bolt on each side of the bracket.
