I was wondering if anyone would happen to know where I could purchase aluminum break away sign posts, 2" square, 10 feet long. I have a customer who requested them and have not had any luck finding them.
Thanks!

Charleston Industries in Elk Grove Village comes to mind.

Thanks for the reply Eric.....I found Charleston Industries, but what/who is Howard?

You might want to double-check....I don't think most of those break-away posts are aluminum..

I will make a few phone calls monday morning with the leads you guys gave me, and see what the specs are on the posts available. I appreciate the replies...thank you!

I thought those posts were usually galvanized steel.

Yes Bill, all the break away posts I've ever seen were steel. This is new to me too.

I don't see why a custom aluminum sign fabricator can't machine a weak point into a post at the designated ground level. This has to have come up before now.
