Sign Clips
What They Are
Clips are steel bands of various lengths shaped to match posts, with associated square head bolts, washers and nuts.
How We Use Them
They are used in conjunction with a sign channel (riveted to the rear of the sign), the bolt is slid into the channel. A clip is also inserted into the channel, wrapped around the post and secured with a washer and nut. This fixing method is used extensively in roadside signage.
Stud Fixings
What They Are
Stud fixings are threaded metal rods, that are typically mounted to the rear of cut letters. These are then fed into pre-drilled holes.
How We Use Them
We’ve used stud fixings in the past to achieve flush finishes on our cut letters. They’re an ideal solution when hiding the fixing is essential.
Locators
What They Are
Locators come in two pieces, and snap together to hold the signage in place
How We Use Them
We use locators on the majority of our cut-letter signage. Locators allow us to have the letters stand away from the surface.
Stand Offs
What They Are
Standoffs give sign panels clearance from the surface they’re mounted to.
How We Use Them
We find that we use locators most frequently in our acrylic signs. We mount an acrylic panel in front of a separate sign panel using stand-offs, an effect that can be seen on the examples below.
Hanging Fixings
What They Are
We use a variety of hanging fixings, from cables and hooks, to systems using magnets.
How We Use Them
We use cable systems on our suspended signage, as well as on many of our banners.
