We design and install different types of wayfinding and directional signage both inside and outside. These can be combined with floor graphics to give directions at every eye level.

FAQ’s

What is wayfinding signage?

Wayfinding signage helps visitors, customers, and staff navigate your site.

They can be placed indoors or outdoors to highlight exit routes and fire exits in case of emergency, help people find the correct entrances and navigate to different departments.

What is totem signage?

Totem signs are also referred to as monolith signs. They’re constructed and look like a freestanding ‘monolith’ structure and often deliver information at eye height.

They can be printed or constructed in different materials and finishes and illuminated to make them unmissable.

Popular locations for totem signs include public parks, hotels, visitor attractions, retail and business parks, schools, universities and airports.

What’s the difference between wayfinding signage and totem signage?

Wayfinding signage provides navigational and directional information, while totem signage combines directional information, site maps, business details, and branding to create a one-stop shop for visitor information.

Where can I install a monolith or totem sign?

Pretty much anywhere there’s space!
These can be installed inside buildings to provide visitors with critical information they’ll need during their time with you. They’re made of durable materials and can also be placed outside.

Can you customise the size of the monolith and totem signs?

Absolutely! Every wayfinding sign is customised for its location. We can fit several totem or monolith signs in one location, and each one can be different, depending on the space it needs to be fitted, the information presented, and whether it is inside or outside.

Do I need permission for a sign?

Quite possibly, yes!

You’ll need to check with the council or the land or building owner.

Parts of the road and pavement may need to be closed for installation. This means either you or we will need to liaise with the council or landowner to make the necessary arrangements.

This might sound daunting, but we’ve liaised with many management companies and councils to arrange for the safe fitting of signs for our customers – it’s easily doable; you just need to know what’s required!

If you’re unsure what paperwork your dream custom sign might need, we can advise on that.
