Educational Signages: what’s included and how to install them

Educational signage helps bring your pollinator project to life by making it visible, educational, and engaging for your community.

Depending on your program, you may receive one or more of the following signage options.

How to install the large educational signage

Since every property is different, the installation of the large educational signage is completed by your team.

We do not install large signage directly because installation methods vary by site and may require approval from your property management team.

Install your signage where it will attract attention and encourage engagement.

Recommended locations include:

• Near your pollinator project
• Along a tenant walkway
• On a window overlooking the terrace
• Mounted on posts near your hive, at least 10 ft / 3 m away
• On a wall or fence close to the project area

Installation options

• Glass: Use removable adhesive strips, such as Command™ strips, to attach the signage to a glass surface.

• Wall: Attach by drilling holes into the signage and using screws and anchors to secure it. Yoy may also use durable outdoor-rated double-sided tape.

• Suspended: Use a cable display system for a clean, professional look, especially indoors or near windows.

• Posts: Mount the signage on wooden or metal posts in a visible location, at least 10 ft / 3 m away from the hive.

• Fence: Drill holes in the signage and secure it with zip ties. If you prefer not to drill, adhesive cable tie mounts can be placed on the back of the sign and secured using Zip ties.

• Easel: Use a signage easel if you would like to keep the signage mobile for events, workshops, or intorerior displays.

Drilling guidelines

If drilling is required, we recommend placing holes approximately 1 ¾ in / 4.45 cm from each corner. This helps distribute the weight evenly and reduces stress on the panel.

What if my signage is damaged?
