George,
It looks like a Kestrel Signs box. They are in the toolbar listing under post and panel signs, my experience of them is a very helpful company and I believe they can produce the replacement face material.

Thanks Steve, have you ever used that system if so do you need special tools?

No, but a couple of years ago I had a sample box made up. The whole idea seems quite straight forward, method of tensioning etc and there is a tool that they supply to hook it all together. It’s one thing fixing 20" square panel together on the bench though
I think that a good flat wrinkle free installation will rely on the face material being made accurately, by Kestrel?
Stuart or Lorraine are the people to speak to at Kestrel. -
Ta Steve …..one of you old hands must of fitted these doofers :lol1:

or even know where there is a video as I have emailed kestrel but awaiting a reply

it is the kestral system.
i havent used that one but i think you have a sort of small handled hook that you just pull the spring up to meet the hole in the tensioning bar and it self adjusts. -
Its called ‘springflex’, surprise surprise!!
If its a big one you will need something to pull the springs off and on, your fingers start to hurt after about 20 or so.
