Sidewalk signs are often called A-frame signs, sandwich boards, or street signs. These names refer to the portable, double-sided boards you see outside businesses, restaurants, or events. They’re designed to grab attention from people walking or driving by. You’ll find a variety of styles and sizes at Walmart, so you can pick the one that fits your needs best.

Yes, you can legally purchase street signs, including sidewalk signs, for personal or business use at retailers like Walmart. However, official traffic signs used by municipalities are regulated and shouldn’t be used to mimic government signage. Sidewalk signs sold at Walmart are intended for advertising, safety, or decor and are safe for private property or business promotion.

Most sidewalk signs come in standard sizes like 24" x 36" or 22" x 28". These sizes are popular because they’re easy to see and fit well outside storefronts or event spaces. Some signs are larger or smaller, depending on their purpose. Always check the product description for exact measurements so you get the right fit for your space.

• Make sure it’s stable and easy to fold for storage.

DIY signs let you customize your message and style, but always use safe materials and tools. If you prefer ready-made options, Walmart offers a wide selection.

These features can help your sign last longer and stand out, especially in busy or outdoor settings.
