It depends on what's under the EIFS. If it's plywood under the foam, then toggles are fine for a lightweight sign. If masonry, we've come to like the titen HD (simpson strong tie brand) anchors or long wedge anchors. The Titen HD screws are more user friendly than tapcons IMO. They come in a variety of sizes, sometimes even at the big home centers. Just check to see if it's densglass (fiberglass wall panels) under the foam. Engineeners have told us that densglass isn't "structural" and that things need to be thru-bolted with uni-strut (or equal) sleepers across studs inside the wall. A few years back, we were called out for an emergency call where someone had installed some large raceway channel letter signs to an EIFS wall that had densglass behind. They used lag screws. These held for a while but a heavy snow caused them to fail. And toggles should work with Densglass but again not for any heavy loads. In any case don't compress the foam too much. A sleeve (mentioned above) would be needed for whatever the depth of the foam might be, though probably not needed for something light like an ACM panel. if it's a really small sign, then appropriate exterior screws are usually OK going into plywood. -

Are there any recommendations for the best types of anchors to use for lightweight signs on EIFS? <a href=" https://www.phoenixstuccocontractor.com/"> Phoenix Stucco Contractors</a> -
Hi Can anyone tell me the right color red and blue translucent vinyl for the "new" Pepsi logo? We have a local ice cream spot that recently changed from Coke to Pepsi and we have to replace the graphics on a couple of lit cabinets. The customer sent me the logo in various formats but it didn't specify the correct colors. I've searched but keep getting CYMK, etc. for the older logo - 2022 or so. Thanks!
