Wayfinding is not signage. It is principally used within industries such as company houses, hospitals, airports, schools, football stadia, universities etc. whereby the branding of the organisation should extend beyond the primary exterior signage. Wayfinding employs the understanding of the movement of people within a site, and Signage Systems will then work to create a sensible, logical route via strategically placed signs of direction. These less imposing signs are still of importance to branding however, and are designed in a manner to echo the chief representation of the company.

Wayfinding is practicality – and this is essential for any reasonably sized organisation that regularly deals with people. At Signage Systems, we are knowledgeable in the enhancement of visitor experiences and will seek to attain this regardless of the size or shape of space available to us within which to plan.

Site surveys are an essential measure in the process of installing signage solutions, particularly for larger scale projects, or for sites that require planning permission from local authorities. Signage Systems will ensure a full site survey is conducted, and, if relevant, take steps to deal with relevant planning regulations for you. We are also able to impart comprehensive risk assessments and method statements. Our experienced technicians have solid knowledge on certain aspects of signage solutions that local councils tend to be problematic over, and will produce accurate drawings and photographs for submission in support of your plans.

Planning signage solutions is crucial at Signage Systems – we strive for client satisfaction, and therefore produce visually indicative blueprints for your perusal before finalizing designs.

We are able to create letters from a choice of acrylic, aluminium, or stainless steel, so a range of different effects can be achieved. Acrylic is perhaps the most flexible of materials in terms of the aesthetic that can be created, with a range of colours and finishes available.

The face finishes include solid face, bevelled, rim and return, dependent on preference. Signage Systems are also able to install energy efficient LED’s, whereby a halo effect, or full face illumination can be achieved for an even bolder statement.

Fundamental guidelines exist with regard to the size of text and contrasting colours on these signs, and they should be strictly observed so that they may serve their purpose. However, it is still possible to manufacture them with the inclusion of company branding/logos and even strap lines.

In short, these are signs that serve a far more practical purpose than aesthetical, but Signage Systems will still endeavour to work with you in order that a happy medium can be found, where the signs are firmly DDA compliant but remain an output for your company branding should you choose for them to.

As finishes are plentiful, it makes them ideal for all manner of purposes.

Installation methods also vary with flat cut lettering – locators or threaded studs can be used to generate a ‘protruding’ effect, as though the lettering stands away from the wall or fascia. Alternatively, we are able to install them flush with another surface.

The usage of flat lettering varies widely, and can be utilized both indoors and out, from sign fascias to in-store perimeters, receptions and corporate offices. Business logos may also be manufactured in this flat formation in order to work alongside the lettering if you require.
