Sign Face Replacement Heywood

When a new face is the sensible choice in Heywood

On Heywood Distribution Park, entrance totems often carry several tenant names, and each panel needs changing when a unit is re-let. Warehouse lightboxes above offices fade after years of sun. In the town centre, shop and takeaway lightboxes go yellow and crack around the edges.

In each case the frame, fixings and lighting are usually fine. Replacing only the face is quicker and avoids disturbing the building. Our sign face replacement Manchester page explains more.

Measuring

Heywood is roughly 25 to 30 minutes from our office via the M60 and M66 or through Middleton, depending on traffic. Many signs can be measured from photos with a tape measure in shot, but totems and high signs are better measured on site so the new face fits exactly.

Totems and warehouse lightboxes

A gate totem is often the first thing a driver looks for, so a missing or faded panel causes real problems with deliveries. Panels usually slide out of a channel from the top or side. We check how yours is built before we make anything, then make a panel that matches the others in size, colour and lettering height.

Lightboxes high on warehouses are larger and need access equipment to reach. We plan that around the yard so deliveries are not held up, and fit at quieter times where needed.

Shop signs in the town centre are simpler but face more knocks. Polycarbonate faces are much tougher than acrylic and worth choosing for low signs.

We do not touch electrics. If a sign is not lighting, a qualified electrician needs to repair it, and we fit the new face afterwards. For new signs, see illuminated signs and fascia signs, or shop signs Heywood.

Photos that help us quote

• A straight-on photo of the whole sign
• A close-up of the edge trim or channel
• A photo with a tape measure across the face
• Your logo files, if you have them

Flat warehouse fascias and office signs without lighting can often be refreshed with new vinyl. We strip the old lettering and glue, clean the panel and apply new cut or printed vinyl, which changes the sign without new fixings in the cladding. It is a quick way to rebrand a unit when a new tenant moves in.
