Sentinel Pavement Sign

Sentinel Premium Forecourt Pavement Sign

The Sentinel pavement sign is a premium forecourt display for businesses that need large, bold outdoor advertising. It is designed for high-impact poster or banner messages outside stores, venues, forecourts, car parks, leisure sites, visitor attractions, showrooms, retail parks and customer-facing entrances.

Unlike a standard A-board or lightweight pavement sign, Sentinel is built for larger outdoor promotional display. It is available in multiple high-impact poster sizes and can also be supplied as a banner display. This makes it suitable for sales campaigns, event advertising, directional messages, seasonal promotions, product launches, venue information and customer notices.

The Sentinel uses a durable powder-coated steel frame with smooth rounded corners. The poster option includes magnetic sealed polycarbonate poster covers for strength, poster security and outdoor protection. The base is made from recycled polyethylene and can be filled with water for stability. Built-in wheels help with positioning, and a trolley and hose accessory can be used to help move, fill and empty the sign.

Poster or banner display?

Choose the poster option if you want a professional forecourt display with changeable poster inserts and magnetic sealed polycarbonate covers. This is a good choice for retail promotions, event posters, venue information, opening hours, campaign messages and customer notices.

Choose the banner option if you prefer a printed banner display using elasticated banner ties. This can work well for larger promotional graphics, seasonal campaigns or outdoor advertising where a banner-style insert is preferred.

For most retail and venue uses, the poster option is the better default because it allows a more protected and structured display. For campaign-led outdoor graphics, the banner option may be worth considering.

Which Sentinel size should I choose?

Choose A1 if you need a smaller Sentinel display for high-impact entrance messaging where space is more limited.

Choose 30″ × 40″ if you want a strong mid-size forecourt poster display with more visibility than A1.

Choose A0 if you need a large poster display for outdoor promotions, venue information or customer-facing signage.

Choose 40″ × 60″ if you need the largest Sentinel poster option for maximum forecourt impact and high-footfall exterior locations.

The detailed specification table lists display areas and overall dimensions for the 30″ × 40″, A0 and 40″ × 60″ poster options, plus banner options. Check the A1 configuration separately because the page says some tamper-proof fixing details do not apply to A1.

Sentinel, Defender or Cyclone 2?

Choose Sentinel if you want a premium forecourt sign with poster and banner options, water-fillable recycled base, magnetic poster covers and optional tactical headers.

Choose Defender if you need a heavy-duty concrete-base outdoor poster display for a more permanent location.

Choose Cyclone 2 if you need a large 40″ × 60″ heavy-duty poster display for retail parks, forecourts and high-footfall areas.

Choose Consul 22×60 if you need a tall, narrow outdoor sign with a water/sand-fillable base.

Choose Booster if you want a premium A-frame sign with a printed header area and changeable poster display.

Choose Outrider if you need a wheeled mobile A-frame that can be moved in and out each day.

Artwork for Sentinel signs

Use the correct Sentinel artwork template for the size and display type you order. The live page includes artwork specifications for Sentinel 30×40, Sentinel 40×60, Sentinel A0, Sentinel Banner Small and Sentinel Banner Large, as well as Sentinel product specification downloads.

Good Sentinel artwork usually includes:

• Business name or logo
• Strong headline
• One main offer or message
• Short supporting line
• Directional arrow if needed
• QR code if useful
• Website or phone number
• Opening hours if relevant

Avoid overcrowding the artwork. Sentinel is a large outdoor display, so the design should use large type, strong contrast, clear spacing and one main call to action.
