    I have a customer looking for some new signage and has said he might like something like separate sections rather than one panel. I was looking at Ashby and the slat type signs they do are on posts. Can anyone suggest where I could look?

    thanks.

    thanks boys!

    This sign is for allotments 😕 So I’m hoping to find something not too officey looking!

    Blackburns Metals. Much Cheaper than ashby.

    do they have a website Gary?

    I’m looking for something more old fashioned that these modern slat type signs. As I mentioned it’s for allotments so I’m looking for something a bit different.

    The only thing the customer has asked for is that it’s individual panels for each name, not a single piece sign. But he wants them all connected. 😕 He initially asked for them to be connected by chains but if it’s wall mounted then that defeats the purpose!

    Hiya Marcella

    I have just got some of this channel in http://www.jagsignsupplies.com/aqshop/c … php?id=834 to use for slider panels, but I’m not sure it’s going to do the job now….

    If he wants chains there is this system, but the last time I spoke to them there was a minimum order of 25! http://www.signwavesgroup.com/products. … 23&pid=289

    How about T-channel http://www.jagsignsupplies.com/aqshop/c … php?id=499
    inside a hardwood frame, with spacers between each slat of composite panel?

    Just throwing some ideas around…..

    Good luck! In my experience this type of customer doesn’t want anything other than ‘CHEAP’!
