Installation Guide

Installation Guide

AltaVista Signs are designed for quick, clean, and tool-free installation on most flat surfaces.

This installation guide also applies to many compatible modular curved sign holders used to expand existing Vista System® signage installations.

Surface Preparation

For best results, ensure the surface is:

  • Clean and dry
  • Smooth and flat
  • Free of dust, oil, or debris

We recommend wiping the surface with a mild cleaner and allowing it to dry completely before installation.


Mounting Instructions

  1. Peel off the protective backing from the adhesive tape
  2. Align the sign holder in the desired position
  3. Press firmly against the surface for 10–15 seconds

Important Notes

  • Adhesive works best on non-porous surfaces (metal, glass, painted walls)
  • Avoid repositioning after initial placement
  • Allow adhesive to set for several hours before inserting signage

Alternative Mounting

For long-term or heavy-use applications, additional mounting methods (such as screws) may be used if applicable.


Proper installation ensures a secure hold and a clean, professional appearance.

Need to expand an existing Vista System® installation?

Many offices, hospitals, schools, and commercial buildings already use Vista System® signage. Altavista Signs offers compatible modular sign holders and replacement products that make it easy to add new room signs, update directories, replace damaged frames, or modify existing installations without replacing the complete signage system.
