  • Anyone recognise this sign system

    Help!

    Does anyone know where the hell I can get this system from?

    Pictures show the curved wall mounted system and the suspended one which has the same aluminium profile as the wall mounted one.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙂

    There’s another company ……… big company, but their name escapes me. They have an outlet in Kirkcaldy too, somthingorother Sign Systems. It looks like their type of system ………… if the name comes back to me I’ll let you know!

    Robert, they are not owned by Spandex but they are the official Spandex supplier for Scotland, I won’t use them personally for reasons I wont mention here but they are not suppose to quote for jobs where spandex systems have been stipulated and another sign company has asked them for a quote.

    Thanks Martin, yet another trade supplier undercutting their own customers then!

    Robert I didn’t say that 😉

    Just so you know they are a Sign Company as well as a trade supplier.

    I’ve used them several times …….. although a couple of years ago. No probs with service. It does look like something they do.

    It’s a Modulex system… "Pacific Interior" pretty sturdy and a really good profile.

    I don’t know if anyone is interested in this system so I thought I would make a couple of things clear about this company.

    1. Their standard quotation time is three days, no matter how simple the the enquiry (I was told snottily).

    2. They do not give trade discount or trade prices as they only deal with end users (I was told by email – that read snottily).

    At this point, I need a smiley with a simple raised middle finger if possible please 👿

    I stopped dealing with these guys here for similar reasons. They do supply the sign makers, but also compete for tenders against the signmakers, so you’ll never win.

    I changed over to Vista Modular signs. Arguably a better system, and they don’t compete for the job. They only supply sign makers and don’t deal direct with the end user.
