Directory Signs – Go Big or Go Home!

Multi-panel directory signs are the preferred choice for large office buildings or buildings with room for expansion.  Typically used as building directory signs, these versatile sign holders can also be used as menu boards, directional signs or wayfinding signs.  They’re available with flat and curved profiles and be used for both interior and exterior signage applications.

The flat profile directory signs, such as the DF34U, consist of three portrait-oriented directories with one landscape-oriented header.  However, the curved profile directory signs, like the D36U, have two horizontal curved directories with one vertical curved header.  The entire line of Vista office signs are built to order so if you need custom sizes, including the number of panels per sign frame or the size of the frame itself, we can accommodate your requirements.  This is especially advantageous with menu boards or similar sign holders where unanticipated space is needed.

On the topic of menu boards and sign holders, these multi-panel sign frames accommodate a wide variety of insert materials.  Paper is the most popular since you can print the inserts yourself in minutes.  It’s fast, economical and you don’t have to wait for the local sign company to get them done.  If you have existing office signs in place which utilize engraved, acrylic, vinyl, PVC or comparable materials, the Vista multi-panel directory signs can accommodate them all effectively blending into the existing sign program.

The frames come in three elegant anodized aluminum finishes; brushed silver, black and gold.  There are metal end caps to match or choose from grey or black plastic to complement your existing color scheme.

Directory Signs and How to Master Them!

Directory signs that have no errors, are cost effective and can be updated in minutes?  Yes!  Create designer-quality inserts for your directory signs in the comfort of your own office saving time and money.  Drive consistency in your sign program with wayfinding signage that you control especially when the information on your directory signs changes frequently.

The Vista System line of wayfinding signage is made from anodized aluminum and comes in three sleek finishes. For a closer look, check out the following video.

Directory signs can also be used in various capacities including directional signs or wayfinding signs.  They’re highly effective in allowing customers or clients to navigate through your building or campus environment.  Directional signs help control traffic paths which allows you to be more efficient by having to spend less time providing instructions on how to get them to their specific location.

More importantly, directory signs typically change quite frequently.  Having the ability to create inserts on-site has many advantages.  First, it’s fast.  You don’t have to wait days or weeks for the local sign company to respond.  In addition, you don’t have to worry about fonts, font sizes or colors to go wrong when you control the templates.  Even if you’re not a computer whiz but can do the basics in Word, printing on specialty paper from the local office superstore will make your directory sign inserts look like they came from a graphics designer.
