Not at all. Your sign base kit will come with everything you’ll need to set up the base and post except a sign which you’ll have to order separately. The rubber sign base kit includes 5’ or 6’ tall PVC post, cap, and sign attachment hardware; the cast iron stand comes with a post and a couple of nuts and bolts; and the roll ‘n’ pole sign holder includes a base, a predrilled sign pole, a finial knob/handle, four stabilizer plates, a split flanged bushing, a set of pole stops with screws, two bolts, and two flange nuts. The different FlexPost sign base models are also shipped with all the required installation equipment other than signage.
