Building Opening Plaques
Building Opening Brass plaques, can be custom made to any size, complete with logos, borders and mounting holes. Speak to us about your requirements.
We are also very well placed to offer schools their 'Investing in Our Schools Programme' plaques, with a quick turnaround time, and right on budget.
Stainless Steel
For today's needs we use materials that are not likely to be stolen to be melted down by vandals. The Marine Grade Stainless Steel plaques are super hard and weather resistant.
The text and logos are laser engraved (black) and permanent.
You can purchase these direct HERE.
Turnaround time 7 to 10 days.
Permabrass
The PermaBrass plaques not only looks like brass, but will always look as good as new, and never tarnish. It's only minor downside is that it's a softer material.
The text and logos are acid etched and then paint filled.
Turnaround time 7 to 10 days.
Metalgraph
We also have a range of much cheaper materials for use on all plaques. These are commonly used for internal applications, but are UV stable and great for outdoor use too. They look like the real thing, at a fraction of the price, and are available in brushed gold and silver. We often use these in an emergency when a customer requires a plaque, but cannot get the real thing made up in time.
They are made from a strong, high density plastic type material, and we laser engrave away the top coloured layer to expose crisp black text and logos.
Screw holes can also be inserted, but as this material is not as rigid as the metal plaques, the preference is to use liquid nails or double sided tape for mounting purposes. If screws are to be used, please do NOT screw them in tightly.
Turnaround time 24 to 48 hours (or less*).
Unveiling Curtain / Plaque Revealer
To assist with your unveiling ceremony, we can supply a portable unveiling lectern or plaque revealer made from beautiful jarrah complete with drawstring blue velvet curtains. It is designed to accomodate a variety of plaque sizes, and is available for rent on a per day basis.
Please check with us that it fits your plaque well in advance, as it simply cant hold some of the really large plaques.
