Metal A-Frame Inserts
Metal A-frame inserts are the printed panels that sit inside a Gigantic Signs steel or aluminium footpath frame, sold on their own so an Adelaide business can update its message without buying a whole new sign. The panel is sized to the existing frame and prints full colour on one or both faces to match how the frame is used.

FAQ
Do I need to buy a new frame every time I update a metal A-frame's message?
No. Metal A-frame inserts are sold separately from the frame, so if the powder coated body is still solid and only the artwork has dated, a new printed panel is all that's needed rather than a whole new sign.
Will a metal A-frame insert fit any steel A-frame?
Metal A-frame inserts are sized to fit Gigantic Signs' own steel and aluminium A-frame body. Confirm your frame's insert size with Gigantic Signs before ordering a replacement panel.
How is a metal A-frame insert priced?
Metal A-frame inserts are priced by area rather than as a fixed unit, from $51.57 ex GST per square metre, so the cost scales with the size of the printed panel you need.
