Door Signage

Architectural signage is more than just identification, it’s an integrated design element that defines how people perceive, navigate and interact with your built environments. Our service delivers signage systems that combine functional clarity with aesthetic coherence: wayfinding, demarcation, room numbering, directory boards, safety & regulatory signs, all crafted to harmonise with material finishes, lighting, spatial scale and architectural character. We work with you from concept through to installation to ensure every sign is legible, durable, compliant and visually aligned with your project’s identity.

For architects and builders, engaging professional signage design early means fewer disruptions later. We assist in selecting materials and methods that suit interior or exterior conditions, coordinate signage with other architectural or interior finish elements, ensure compliance with accessibility and safety regulations, and deliver high quality fabrication with longevity in mind. The result: signage that doesn’t just fulfil functional needs, but enhances the spatial experience, improves legibility and wayfinding, aids compliance, and contributes lasting value to the project.

Our Door Signage Solutions

  • Custom design of signage systems (wayfinding, room & door identification, directories, safety & regulatory signs, etc.) that reflect the building’s architectural style and branding.

  • Material selection & finish guidance to suit location (interior / exterior), durability, maintenance, environmental exposure (e.g. moisture, UV, traffic).

  • Typography, graphics, contrast, colour use & scale to ensure legibility at appropriate viewing distances, including considerations for low vision and accessibility.

  • Compliance with accessibility standards (such as tactile text / Braille if required), building regulations, safety signage codes, illumination / visibility standards.

  • Integration of signage into the overall architectural or interior design: coordinating with wall finishes, lighting, ceiling heights, sightlines, mounting methods so signs feel like part of the building fabric rather than additions.

  • Fabrication and installation oversight: ensuring high quality production, durable fixings, correct placement, alignment, and finish.

  • Maintenance and lifespan planning: selecting materials, hardware and finishes that age well and are easy to clean / repair / replace if needed.

  • Clear specification documents: sign schedules, mounting details, locations, lighting and illumination details, artwork / graphics files, colour codes etc., so builders and contractors have no ambiguity.

  • Early phase consultancy so signage is part of the tender / construction drawings, avoiding retrofits or last-minute changes.

  • Visual and spatial mapping: advising where signs should be placed to support intuitive wayfinding, safety, and visibility (entrances, corridors, exits, intersections).
