MINUTEMAN® SIGNS, INC.![]() Fax (919) 732-1994 E-Mail: signs@minutemansignsinc.com ALUMINUM NAILS We are often asked if it matters what is used to attach posted signs to trees, fence posts, etc. The short answer is YES! Using the right nails, and using them properly, can greatly increase the durability and life of your signs. Aluminum nails also offer future safety should the trees later be harvested as saws can safely and easily cut through aluminum nails whereas they cannot cut through steel shanked nails. We, along with many of our satisfied customers highly recommend using 1-3/4 inch aluminum ring shank nails with neoprene washers on them. All our standard gauge signs should be nailed in the four corners with the nails being left 1/4 inch from tight. This leaves room for the tree to grow out, while preventing the sign from being pushed off the nail, and keeping the sign mounted longer. Having the washer and leaving that 1/4 inch space between the sign and washer are the important factors that greatly increase the durability and life of your posted signs. The nails below are the RIGHT nails for the job!
