What are the Stages for Installing Wayfinding and Directional Signage?
Consultation
Step one involves discussing the ideal outcomes for the wayfinding scheme. We take into account the preferences of our clients, as well as the space and budget.
Getting to know the size and scale of the environment, brand guidelines and users is an important part of this phase.
Design
With an understanding of the preferences and goals our team of expert designers will work with client feedback to create mock-ups of the signage.
Reviews and feedback are a vital part of this stage so that the ideal outcomes can be clearly envisioned.
Manufacture
After approval, the designs are given to our manufacturing team for production. Made on-site in our UK workshop, each sign is tested for quality and legibility.
The signs are produced using a combination of first-class sign making technology and traditional hand-made artwork. They are then securely packaged and sent.
Installation
Our team of professional installers are then responsible for bringing the wayfinding scheme to life through a carefully coordinated and safe installation process.
We plan for minimal disruption to the environments we work in and take care of the whole operation from delivery to snagging.
