When we were asked to design wooden monolith signs, our joiners designed three stunning timber signs. The signage needed to be sympathetic to the surroundings, reflect the local environment and offer a practical signage solution.
Wooden Totem/Monolith signs
We designed the wooden monolith and all the wooden signs into kit form. This is so the signage could be put together on site in minimal time, and with relative ease. We have since produced a similar kit for another sign company who required wooden monolith signs of their own.
However, this signage also included overhanging tray signs cut into the timber, together with laser cut acrylic lettering. (Some of the strokes on the text were cut as fine as 2mm). And some of the text needed to be applied direct to the timber facia.

The wooden monoliths in kit form
Which Wood is Used on the Monolith?
Our client requested an Oak finish on the signs. We were able to create a similar colour and grain to Oak, from Idigbo. This timber is very stable and is hard enough to take fixings extremely well. Although the Idigbo doesn’t necessarily need to be treated, though it does add to its durability and stability if a coating is added. Call us to discuss which treatment is best for your wooden signage.
Double sided wooden monolith signs
Although both monolith signs were double sided, we also crafted a single sided version of the signs which could be attached to railings. Because this was a single sided wooden sign, the fixtures were finished on the back to a high standard, and painted to match the railings.
All the signs were finished with a timber capping to add further protection to the sign. Each sign being finished to the highest standards. The finishing includes Oak pellets to hide any fixing heads as well as apexed caps to enhance drainage.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch regarding any wooden signage, no matter how big or small the project.

Risk Assessment & Method Statements
Furthermore, some projects may need RAMS and we can supply these for you. Usually RAMS can be supplied after a site survey and will be published by your project manager who will look after your sign production and installation from start to finish. Similarly, other certification such as PASMA or CSCS cards will be supplied where required.Free Site Survey
If you would like to discuss your signs in more detail, please don't hesitate to call. We can help you find the right options and possibilities available at your site. We offer a free survey where we can assess all parts of installation, measurements and practical solutions. In the first instance, call Jamie Brelsford on 01270 625207 or leave a message in the form below and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.We give you a professional and comprehensive printed hoarding service which includes site survey, print production and installation. Your project will be managed from start to finish by our installation manager who, after surveying, will work with you and our pre-press and production teams, right through to managing the installation.

Durable Printed hoarding, with exceptional print quality

We use only the best aluminium composite substrates for all our signage and hoarding, ensuring a durable solution. Anti-graffiti laminate can also be applied which not only protects but will enhance the graphic. We also print to a quality that reproduces your design with accurate colour reproduction using the much coveted AGFA workflow software.
Free Site Survey
We offer a free site survey to assess the area, take measurements and discuss the style of hoarding that is required. At this stage we would measure and assess the hoarding structure the graphics will be fixed to, and then record any variations in height that may affect the run of the graphics.
Creating artwork for hoarding
If you are designing the hoarding panels, we would submit a scale template for you to render your graphics on to. This will allow you to see exactly how your graphics will appear when the hoarding project is completed. Call Jamie Brelsford on 01270 625 207 to discuss in more detail.
Hoarding Design Styles

There are a number of different ways to present your graphics onto existing hoarding structure. A complete covering with anti-graffiti laminate and complete with header and kickers are the most popular, but you can reduce expenditure by using boards in a landscape orientation. This band of graphics is usually centred across the hoarding, and as long as the hoarding is painted, it will be perfectly adequate to get your message across.

Other examples include acrylic logo's and text to add depth to the design. Solar spotlights can add a little more attention to the site too.
We can always discuss your design ideas during the site survey, or by phone using images of the site. If you need us to help design your hoarding, our studio will work with you to go through the brief and present design ideas to scale.
