SmartSign GardenBoss Please Keep Off The Grass Aluminum Garden Plaque 5.75x9.5 with 18" Black Stake, Weatherproof Coating

SmartSign’s GardenBoss “Please… Keep Off The Grass” is a weatherproof 5.75" x 9.5" aluminum garden plaque with bold lettering and an 18" black stake for easy lawn installation.

This decorative yet durable sign communicates a polite request while resisting rust, fading, and the elements. Cast from thick recycled aluminum and finished with SmartSign’s Alumi-Shield coating, the plaque pairs architectural styling with functional visibility. It’s sized to read from a short distance, mounts quickly on the included lawn stake, and preserves its finish season after season.

How is this plaque built to last outdoors?

The GardenBoss plaque is engineered for long-term outdoor use without flaking or corrosion. Its 0.375" cast aluminum body provides rigidity and impact resistance, while the proprietary Alumi-Shield coating defends against UV damage and weathering. Together they protect both structure and graphics so the sign maintains legibility and appearance across seasons.

• 0.375" recycled cast aluminum resists rust and bending
• Alumi-Shield coating repels UV rays and moisture
• Bold raised lettering improves long-distance readability
• Coating preserves color and reduces maintenance

How easy is installation and placement?

Installation is designed to be straightforward for most users and requires no special tools. The plaque ships with an 18" black aluminum lawn stake and the necessary hardware, so you simply attach the plaque to the stake and push or set it into the soil. The stake height gives good visibility above low grass and flower beds without dominating the landscape.

• Includes 18" black aluminum lawn stake for secure anchoring
• Hardware provided for quick attachment to the stake
• Fits in lawns, garden borders, and mulched beds
• Stake length balances visibility with a low profile

Will this sign remain visible and readable over time?

The design emphasizes large, architectural lettering to maximize contrast and legibility from common viewing distances. Because the text is cast with depth and the surface protected by Alumi-Shield, dirt, fading, and light wear have less impact on readability. Routine rinses or gentle cleanings are all that’s typically needed to keep it looking smart.

• Large, bold type improves sightlines across yards
• Raised characters maintain definition as finish ages
• Simplified color palette reduces visual clutter
• Easy to clean—no special treatments required
