Our Funniest Home Bar Signs Feature Booze And Animals, Here Are 28 Examples

Wind load can wreck a gorgeous slab faster than a dropped pint glass. If you opt for a swinging bracket then insist on hardware rated at 30 kg (kilograms) or more. Two Fat Blokes includes them free because they’d rather over-engineer than replace your smashed signage. For wall-mounted plaques, nylon wall plugs will do for brick, but timber studs demand coarse-thread lag screws. Still with me, weekend carpenters?

If you’ve skimmed this far thinking, “Cool info, but where do I find someone who actually gets my weird idea for a Viking-themed gin snug?” — meet Two Fat Blokes Ltd. Founded by lifelong mates who swapped corporate life for craft sawdust, the company operates a workshop in Birmingham that churns out over 3,000 personalised bar signs every year. They combine digital printing for photo-grade logos with hand-finished aging techniques like beer stain washes and flame distressing.

Worried about weather? Two Fat Blokes runs every exterior sign through a 72-hour salt-spray test that mimics five years of coastal drizzle, so unless you live on a lighthouse, you’re covered. Warranty sits at a full five years, no quibbles.
