Installation  

Vlock Socket The part of the socket that petrudes outwards is placed into the ground and concreted. The flush side of it faces upwards ensuring no tripping hazard when the sign post is removed.

Vlock Wedge The side with the hole in it , also is installed at the top. This enables easier removal of it later when needed.

Product Use  Ground sockets are used to protect concrete when installing signs, particularly for temporary or portable traffic signs. These sockets are typically embedded in the ground (often in concrete) and serve as a secure base for inserting sign posts. They protect the concrete around the sign by:

• Providing a Removable Solution: Ground sockets allow for the easy installation and removal of signs without damaging the surrounding concrete, especially important in areas that require frequent sign changes (e.g. construction sites or temporary traffic control).
• Preventing Direct Damage: By using a socket, the sign's post can be securely placed without damaging the concrete surface.
• Longevity: These sockets can prolong the life of both the sign and the concrete by reducing wear and tear from repeated installation and removal.
