I've designed a custom sign for a renovation contractor. It's 30" high by 24" wide. I've got a large format printer (epson 7500) where I can print it in vinyl. What's a good off-the-shelf system for making it a yard sign?

The design I've done is paid for. It can be wood for aluminum, which ever works out best. A frame or a post is included and it's one sided.

get some dibond for background then buy some 4x4 plastic fence posts slot the posts with a plunge router .. the router should be the same size as dibond slip the dibond in the slots and finish assembly with cesk screws coming in from the back
Its a one day post and panel system that looks nice and holds up well....

Make the signs out of a thin aluminum, do a full faced digital print and knock them on a single 2X4 post painted white with a couple of sheetrock screws.
One sided...no need for 2 post system and you can run a post up the center of the back. Aluminum is rigid enough to hold up. A 2X4, buried deep enough, should withstand wind. Won't weigh a whole lot and should be easy to move/store.
Concentrate the quality into the image, not what holds it up. Rapid
