Projecting signs
custom-made.

A sign perpendicular to the façade, rectangular, round or custom-cut, to be seen from along the street.

Understand the product

The principle
of construction.

A projecting sign is fixed perpendicular to the façade. Its faces allow it to be read from both directions of traffic. The shape, projection and fixings are designed together.

Volumes, assemblies and components

Explore the construction
in three dimensions.

Day and night views, assembled, exploded and open: examine the parts, then activate “LEDs & power supply” to read the routing of the connections and the layout of the modules. The channel letters are shown without an apparent border. The models explain the principles; the manufacturing characteristics are defined for each project.

New builds · folded tray panel

Four ways to configure
the face of your sign.

These constructions can be considered on both sides of rectangular, round or custom projecting signs. The structure, bracket and fixings are adapted to the shape and projection.

01

Folded tray panel + channel letters

Sheet metal face with applied channel letters. Front illumination of the letters; a non-illuminated version can be considered.

Luminous or non-luminous variant depending on the project.

02

Folded tray panel + PMMA face + boxes

Structure in folded tray panel, front face in diffusing PMMA and applied channel letters. Backlighting of the panel and backlighting of the letters to be defined separately.

Luminous or non-luminous variant depending on the project.

03

Perforated sheet metal + applied PMMA

Sheet metal cut to the outline of the letters or logo, with applied PMMA. Fixing, thickness, diffusion and any PMMA overhang to be specified.

Luminous or non-luminous variant depending on the project.

04

Perforated sheet metal + through PMMA, 5 mm return

PMMA passing through the sheet metal cut-outs and protruding by 5 mm from the outer face. With or without lighting; assembly and thicknesses to be defined.

Luminous or non-luminous variant depending on the project.

On the 3D views, select the construction then its lighting. For the through-lit version, the 5 mm projection is measured from the outer face of the sheet metal to the visible face of the PMMA.

FacesTwo communication faces, with graphics and reading direction to be approved separately.
ConstructionSolid panel or box, materials, frame and finish depending on the selected version.
LightingNon-luminous version or integrated LEDs with diffusing faces. Distribution and power supply to be defined.
FixingBracket, plate or integrated fixings depending on the construction and the support. Load transfer to be assessed.

Compare the options

The configurations.

Rectangular

Horizontal or vertical format, square or with softened corners depending on construction. Width, height and graphics on both faces to be specified.

Round

A disc or circular casing. Diameter, thickness, graphics and fixing position to be defined.

Made to measure

A silhouette tailored to the logo or project. Vector artwork makes it possible to study radii, fine details and assembly.

Illuminated

Internal lighting and diffusing faces according to the construction. Allow for power supply entry and access to the components.

Non-illuminated

Solid panel or housing with opaque faces. Material, finish and graphics application method to be defined.

Professional questions

Before pricing.

What is the difference between width and overall projection?

The width relates to the sign itself. The total projection includes the sign and the distance separating it from the façade: please provide both values if known.

Can the graphic be different on each face?

Yes, subject to the chosen construction. Send one file per face and indicate the required reading directions to avoid mirrored graphics.

Can the exact outline of a logo be reproduced?

The vector file is used to assess feasibility. Fine details, radii, dimensions and lighting constraints may require an adjustment to be validated with you.

What do you need to provide for fixing?

Photos, the nature of the substrate, the height, dimensions and the desired projection. Brackets and anchors are defined according to the project; insulation or cladding requires an assessment of the load-bearing substrate.

Which approvals should be planned for?

Any site constraints and possible permits must be checked for the project address with the relevant contacts. The drawings on this sheet do not constitute site approval.

05 / OPTIONS TO CONSIDER

Visible from both directions.

  • Rectangular, round or custom shape
  • Luminous or non-luminous versions to be studied
  • Double-sided, bracket and fixings according to the project

The final choice depends on the graphic, dimensions, environment and installation conditions. Materials, processes and finishes are confirmed for each project.

Custom illuminated projecting and blade signs

Double-sided projecting signs, also called blade signs, for sign makers and resellers: round, rectangular or bespoke shapes, illuminated or non-illuminated. Acrylic faces, applied letters and cut-out panels offer different effects. Specify the wall bracket, projection, artwork and fixing requirements in your manufacturing brief.
