Visual branding
Whether you occupy a whole building, a floor or floors, or a smaller space, the signage you choose communicates a clear message about your company - about who and what you are. You may be facing the challenge of planning a new office or wayfinding system around a set of architectural plans, or perhaps you're looking to add to or update an existing system. Whatever the size of your project, we can work with you to ensure that you are seen the way you want to be.

What a good wayfinding system can do
A good wayfinding system (including directional, informational, identification, and safety and security signage) helps all facility users, both permanent staff and visitors, to save valuable time, while reducing stress and encouraging self-reliance. It also enhances building and personnel safety and security. Whatever its content or location, the fundamental purpose of signage is to help people find their way, quickly and easily, to the person, service or location they need.

Interior Signage - Permanent or Changeable?
Based on its content and purpose, Interior Signage may have text that is unlikely to change over time, for example, floor numbers, washroom facilities, meeting room signs, etc. One the other hand, signs such as workstation signs, office signs including employee names and titles, etc., may require more frequent updating. Wm. Whiteley Limited designs and manufactures signs and sign systems which can accommodate the need for both permanent as well as changeable text. Our changeable signs are designed to hold paper inserts which can be updated virtually instantaneously using on site computers and printers. Let us work with you to develop a sign schedule identifying the types and content of signs required for your project.

Outdoor Signage - First Impressions Count
When was the last time you saw a beautiful looking parking lot? Even though outdoor signage creates a lasting first impression, it's always been difficult to select something distinctive. Until now. Wm. Whiteley Limited's new Outdoor Signage and streetscape products - including parking signs, traffic control, and mandatory regulatory notices - set new standards for outdoor signage.

Our Outdoor Signage is a structural aluminium post based system with information flags, blades or panels attached as determined by site and/or text requirements. Great graphic design, weather resistant powder coating in standard or custom colours, and superb attention to finishing details (such as all stainless steel hardware) make our signs truly a pleasure to look at. And best of all, they're height adjustable and shipped ready to install. Complementary exterior wall mount signage is also available in a similar scale and finishes in order to ensure a cohesive look to your wayfinding or signage project.
