Architectural Modular Signage
Interchangeable aluminium architectural modular signage system
Introduction
The Architectural Signage Modular Series is a fully interchangeable aluminium signage system. A simple system, that offers extensive design and layout options.
Every AM Series sign consists of the 3 components, the Base, the Inserts and the Sidelocks, regardless of the size of the sign. This applies to all signs from small door signs to large directory boards.
Signs can be made with as few or as many Inserts as desired, which allows for a vast range of configurations and layout possibilities. Inserts can be updated or changed as often as name or information details change. Simply remove and replace an Insert as needed.
The Architectural Modular Series also has Inserts designed to accept paper and/or acetate, which makes the system extremely easy to update. The system’s most popular and cost effective graphic text option is vinyl lettering.
With many different mounting options available, the system is ideal for all business, interior and exterior signage requirements, from small door signs through to large directory boards.
How it works
The system comprises of three components:
-
The Base Plates (The backing panel / substrate)
-
The Inserts (The panels on which you add your text and graphics)
-
The Sidelocks (The locking bars on the left and right hand sides)
The Inserts slide onto a Base Plate and are secured by Sidelocks, one on the left and one on the right.
Every AM Series sign consists of the 3 components, regardless of whether it is a small door sign or a large directory board.
The AM Series allows you to design signs with your preferred number and size of Inserts. This system offers a vast array of configurations and layouts making it flexible and adaptable to your project and clients' needs.
Sizes
The Architectural Modular Series offers a range of standard Insert width and height sizes.
Insert Widths
Insert widths are available in multiples of 52.5mm.
The smallest width is 52.5mm, increasing in multiples of 52.5mm (i.e. 52.5mm, 105mm, 157.5mm, 210mm, 262.5mm, 315mm and so on). The widest single Insert available is 1890mm.
Insert Heights
Insert heights are offered in increments of 21mm.
The smallest Insert is 21mm, increasing in multiples of 21mm (i.e. 42mm, 63mm, 84mm, 105mm, 126mm, 147mm, and so on). The maximum height for any single Insert panel is 1197mm.
Inserts can be configured in a variety of layouts and designs to suit graphic requirements.
Locking Options
The Architectural Modular Series’ Sidelocks are designed to fasten and secure the Inserts and the Base Plate together.
There are five Sidelock options to choose from:
-
Standard – 1.5mm wide
-
6mm wide – square cut
-
6mm wide – radius cut
-
12mm wide – square cut
-
12mm wide – radius cut
All of the above options perform the same function. The difference in design of these is purely aesthetic.
