Could you please give me directions to the train station?  Where's the lift?
Which way to the toilets? Is there an access ramp nearby?

Sound familiar? Business' and governments of today cannot afford to not have good directional signage to aid their customers and keep them safe.

Just think about how many times a day we need direction? Literally dozens!! Signage plays such an important part in our everyday life that sometimes we don't actually realise how critical it is to easing us through the day, guiding us to our destination or helping us in our time of need.


A direction sign, more fully defined as a direction, position, or indication sign by the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals, is any road sign used primarily to give information about the location of either the driver or possible destinations, and are considered a subset of the informative signs group.

Did you know that direction signs are the oldest type of road sign? The first direction signs were 
milestones on the Roman road network; helping to find a location on the long, straight roads was difficult, and hence, large stones were placed at intervals along the roads, giving the distance in Roman miles to nearby major cities, and usually to the capitals of major provinces. These are still in evidence today.

We make ALOT of directional signs. To find out more about how directional signage can really make an impact AND assist your customers, contact Signs & Lines today on +8 9274 5151 or admin@signsandlines.com.
