Maybe a good-quality enameled steel sign would last ten years or so.

But factors like sunlight, temperature, pollution, weather, etc. can seriously erode/decay a sign in a short time. Forget about anything silkscreen, inkjet, or offset lasting in good shape beyond a year or two.

Plan on having "ordinary" signage replaced or repaired frequently.

As for sandblasted wood? As Bob says.
