General Signage

Exterior Signage - First impressions are very important in every aspect of life and signage is no different. When clients visit your premises, whatever your business, you want your signage to reflect who you are and more importantly, what you are advertising.

Your fascia is that first interaction with your potential customer so it must give that client the urge to come in and buy what you are selling or service you provide. We produce everything from traditionally manufactured and finished wooden feature signs to framed insert signs and sign trays.

As well as fascia signs we provide other exterior signage including ‘A’ boards, swing boards, window frosting & graphics (fitted internally but for exterior visibility mainly), PVC banners and projecting / hanging / swinging signs.

If you are looking for that little extra, we also produce illuminated signage such as light boxes, backlit sign trays and ’halo’ lighting using LED’s which can be placed behind profile cut raised and edged lettering giving your sign even more impact & style.

Interior Signage - Once your client has stepped inside your premises you want them to be equally impressed by what lies inside. With way-finder signage you can guide them around your premises without the need for accompaniment. We provide door plaques & directory signs to help the client find the room they seek as well as point of sale signs, PVC banners and pull up banner systems, exhibition displays, notice boards, lockable display / poster cases, and health & safety signage.

Other Signage - We pride ourselves in making signage which is a bit different from the norm so it stands out from the crowd and so each sign we make is personal to the people it represents, not just the business type. Take a look in our bespoke products section near the top of the home page for some examples.

We also make the type of standard signs which you will find in most sign companies across the industry including Site boards, Highways specification road signs, Tourist ’brown’ road signs and various types of commercial signage as explained previously. Interpretation panels are a great way to give information and an explanation of a point of interest. These units can be fitted almost anywhere internally or externally. We can make these units with or without a framework to stand on. These units can be produced in various materials and can be functional and practical as well as informative - see bespoke products for details.

We also make house signs to suit all tastes, building ages and styles and use materials to suit the situation of the property should it be in a highly unstable climatic area.

Vehicle Livery

In our opinion, vehicle branding and advertising is one of the most cost effective ways to get your business and products known.

If you place an advert in your local paper or telephone directory, over the course of a day, how many people will read it before it becomes tomorrow’s fish and chip paper?

According to research by a leading vinyl manufacturer, up to 3000 people per hour will see a busy vehicle on the roads or parked in a busy area. If a small percentage of these people were to give you their business, it is a cast iron certainty that your graphics would pay for themselves over and over again.

Using *7-10 year self coloured vinyls or laminated full colour graphics lasting *up to 4 years, the vehicle liveries and designs applied by ourselves have been known to outlast the vehicle on which it is applied! *Manufacturers guide.

With anything from low cost single colour lettering or full colour photo quality graphics to full vehicle wraps, we can provide advice on the best options for your business needs, budget, specifications and requirements to provide you with the optimum impact.

Short term and removable options are also available in the form of magnetic decals or roof top boxes which are ideal for driving schools or taxis. We can also produce spare wheel covers for 4X4’s and can supply chapter 8 vehicle kits for most makes and models which can also be fitted if required.

With our free design service we can tailor a design, produce a logo or devise a full corporate identity to suit any vehicle which could also be re-produced on work wear and used in your business literature.

Traditional Signwritting

Hand sign writing is a dying art, but we have two of the best and last remaining sign writers still using the skilled techniques. Although it is not as popular due to the time constraints with computers speeding up lead times and cutting costs, a hand written sign still looks the business.

As well as the hand sign writing, we are one of a few companies left who are skilled in the art of gold leafing, which is used regularly on honour’s boards and memorials. The results can be stunning.

These skills can be used not only for producing stunning traditional signage or vehicle graphics but can be used to produce fantastic works of art in the form of wall murals or customizing pub or restaurant menu boards.

Full Colour Print Service

We are able to produce amazing graphics up to 1275mm (approx 50”) by almost any length. As well as being ideal for PVC banners, high resolution graphics can be achieved on various vinyl types for different applications such as vehicle livery. Eye catching window graphics can also be produced including a method for visual impact inside and out simultaneously. We can also print onto a frosted effect vinyl which enables strong visual impact and privacy at the same time.

Our PVC banners (economy & premium quality) are finished with seam tape and eyelets. Pull up Banner systems are an ideal solution for exhibitions and shows or whilst pitching a sale. These units are lightweight and take seconds to set up.

Canvas Prints are a popular gift for Christmas or Birthdays. A family picture, a beloved family pet or an image of a memorable occasion puts a smile on every recipients face. If you supply us with a good digital photo or a good exposed print we will produce a canvas print to almost any size you require. We can add digital effects if required or ‘photoshop’ those irritating unwanted objects.

We also produce full colour digital printing onto photo quality poster paper, mesh banners and floor graphics.

Please ask if there is something which is not listed as we may be able to help.
