What
can I do to make my signs vandal-proof?
|
|
It's
impossible to make them vandal-proof, but you can make them
vandal-resistant by use of the correct materials and
construction. |
|
 |
I'm
building in a historic district. What type of sign can I
use?
|
|
Historic
districts generally require historic signs. Contact the
local Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) or building department
for the area. They will give you all the specifications.
We will handle this for you if we are involved in the
designing. |

Truck
trailers flex quite a lot while on the road. What material
can I use to identify our trailers and what do I need to
consider about applying the material?
|
|
There
are many systems that will work on trailers. The ideal
system is one that does not create a lot of maintenance.
Aluminum signs can be used, but they require a fastening
system that requires maintenance. The best system is
pressure-sensitive vinyl, but it too can require maintenance
and repair unless good materials are used and installed
correctly. |

 |
What's
the best color for my sign on our glass windows?
|
|
From
any distance, glass will look dark and requires a light
color for graphics. If it is smoked glass, you must put the
graphics on the outside. Color will not come through smoked
glass. |
|
 |
How
can I get our local Zoning Board of Appeals to grant a
variance for our new signage?
|
|
Present
them with all the facts, Show them why it could be safer.
Remember, they don't want to set a precedent that the next
person will want to use for even more of a variance than you
want. |
