The Rectangular With Supplementary Metal Road Sign Frame is an ideal solution for deploying temporary traffic signs on construction routes, emergency diversions, or roadworks. Unlike single-use units, this frame allows site managers to communicate layered messages with a main and supplementary sign face on the same frame. The structure is manufactured in mild steel, powder-coated for longevity and daily use.
Its practical fold-flat design makes it suitable for fast-moving operations. Whether stored in fleet vans or depot racks, the compact frame saves space without compromising function. Fixing sign faces to the frame is tool-free thanks to compatibility with zinc clips—enabling faster deployment for councils and contractors alike.
- Dual Sign Mounting – Supports both a standard message and a supplementary instruction.
- Portable Format – Flat-pack design helps reduce handling and stacking issues.

This HERMEQ rectangular sign frame addresses practical challenges faced in short-term traffic control. Where traffic road signs need to convey both a primary message and a supplementary detail, this dual-slot frame excels. It is widely used in municipal works, street closures, construction zones, and utility interventions.
In contrast to static installations, this mobile frame is engineered for rapid deployment. The temporary traffic sign structure facilitates communication such as detours, timing instructions, and conditional road alerts. Its ability to fold flat also contributes to efficient fleet storage and jobsite rotation.
Procurement and traffic control teams benefit from its uniformity and tool-free usability. With HERMEQ’s supplementary traffic signage range, this frame becomes a flexible component of broader sign strategies. It reduces installation time, minimises manual effort, and upholds safety standards during short-term interventions.

Product Construction & Use:
This sign frame is constructed from mild steel and powder-coated for corrosion resistance. Its fold-flat structure makes it ideal for jobs requiring multiple relocations or storage between phases. Crews can quickly transport a full set of sign frames in standard fleet vehicles or depot shelving racks.
Unlike single-panel frames, this variant supports both primary and supplementary panels, giving traffic engineers or site managers the flexibility to relay layered or detailed instructions without crowding visual space.
For stability in breezy or uneven environments, the unit can be ballasted with sandbags or HERMEQ weight systems (sold separately). It also complements HERMEQ’s range of compliant sign faces, including regulatory, warning, and directional designs.
Procurement and logistics teams appreciate its uniform sizing and stackable geometry, helping maintain inventory control across depots. Built for consistent deployment, it streamlines traffic sign frame setup while ensuring conformance with UK Chapter 8 requirements.
