Cut-out Plate Signage
Cut-out Plate Signs are a type of sign where a plate size is chosen and a specified text is cut from this plate. The text is then discarded, leaving the plate behind. These plates can then be attached to a surface through the use of Mounting Studs or Mounting Spacers.
Grades of Stainless Steel
Our Cut-out Plate Signs are cut from 1 of 3 grades of Stainless steel:
Grade 316 - For exterior signs in coastal regions our grade 316 stainless steel is used, this grade is better suited for harsher weather conditions and sea air. Grade 304 - For internal signs or signs which are mounted in non-coastal regions, we recommend grade 304 stainless steel. Grade 3Cr12 - Signs which require a colour are cut from grade 3Cr12, which allows for the steel to be powder coated to a specified colour.
Stainless Steel Finishes & Powdercoating
We offer 3 different finishes for the signage that we fabricate:
Brushed Finish - This is our standard satin brushed stainless steel finish which removes any unwanted scratches created by the laser-cutting process. Mirror Polished Finish - This is an alternative finish that is highly reflective and very well suited to extremely coastal environments. Powder Coated - We offer a powder coated finish to achieve a specific colour that is required.
Mounting options
Mounting Spacers - these are machined from stainless steel. These are fixed into the wall with easy-to-install wall plugs and screws. The plate is then pushed onto the spacers and the screw cap applied, fixing the sign in place. These fittings leave the sign about 25 millimetres away from the wall. This mounting option requires minimal DIY skill. Note that mounting spacers are best used in secured applications were the potential theft of the sign is not a concern. Mounting Studs - These are pins that are welded onto the back of the plate, leaving the face clear from fittings. The sign is mounted onto wall by drilling holes in the wall and bonding the pins into the wall with Chemical Mortar. A gap is typically left behind the plate, which can be made as big as desired. This mounting option requires slightly more DIY skill, particularly with larger signs.
Perspex Backing Option
With our signs, we can also include (at an additional cost) a perspex backing which will make the text of your sign to a desired colour. Some of our most common colours are black and white, but we can supply other colours as well.
