When I did something similar, I used a cleat. I cut a 1x6 in half
lengthwise on the table saw with the blade tilted over to 45 degrees. This
gave me two pieces of wood that would lock together. I screwed one to the
wall (aking sure to hit the studs). I screwed the other to the giant heavy
sign I wanted to hang. With the Angled part of the cut facing "out" and up
on the wall and out and "down" on the sign. The angle holds the piece
tight against the wall and the 1x is strong enough to carry a lot of weight.
Here is another use of the same idea.
