R7-201aP Questions

Does posting a tow away zone placard give me the right to tow?

The placard provides notice. The authority to remove a vehicle comes from state law and local ordinance, which commonly require posted notice as a precondition.

Where should tow away placards go on a private lot?

At each entrance and at problem stalls, so a driver sees the warning before parking rather than after returning to find the vehicle gone.

R7-201aP Reflective Sheeting Options

Because the R7-201aP mounts below a main sign and should match the sheeting above it, the T-11500 OmniCube - up to 60 percent brighter with a 12-year outdoor durability rating - is the safer choice when night visibility matters most, while the T-6500 High Intensity Prismatic delivers proven 10-year durability.

The R7-201aP puts a red legend on a white reflective background, and white returns more light than any other color under ASTM D4956, so nearly the entire face lights up under headlights. That is why stepping up to the T-11500 OmniCube produces such a visible change on this sign: you are brightening the color that already dominates the sign face.

R7-201aP Mounting Hole Pattern and Spacing

The R7-201aP is a horizontal placard, so its mounting holes are spaced to line up with the holes of the sign it mounts beneath, letting both share a single post without drilling
