Professional signage without visible fixings

Within offices, commercial buildings, warehouses, and public buildings, magnets are increasingly being used for attaching signage and information panels. They offer a neat solution without visible screws or permanent fixings.

This allows signs to be easily replaced when departments move, rooms are reassigned, or information needs to be updated.

Flexible and easily adaptable

Traditional signage is often screwed or glued. This makes changes time-consuming and can cause damage to walls, doors, or panels.

With magnetic fixings, information boards, door panels, and directional signs can be easily removed and replaced without tools.

Applications

  • Door signs
  • Nameplates
  • Office signage
  • Warehouse signage
  • Wayfinding
  • Commercial buildings
  • Shop fitting
  • Information panels
  • Temporary signs
  • Advertising boards

Which magnets are used?

For aluminum composite panels, acrylic, and plastic signs, disc magnets or block magnets are often used, which can be completely concealed.

When a sign needs to be removed or replaced regularly, rubber coated magnets are popular due to their protection against damage.

For larger panels or heavier advertising boards, pot magnets with countersunk holes are frequently used due to their high holding force.

Which magnets are suitable for outdoor use?

When magnets are used outdoors, weather conditions such as rain, moisture, temperature fluctuations, and UV radiation play an important role. Not every magnet is equally suitable for this.

Nickel-plated neodymium magnets

Most neodymium magnets have a nickel coating. This coating offers protection against corrosion but is less suitable for long-term exposure to moist outdoor conditions. If the coating is damaged, corrosion can occur.

Epoxy coated magnets

Epoxy coated magnets are often chosen for outdoor use. The black epoxy layer offers better protection against moisture and weather influences than a standard nickel coating. In addition, the black finish provides a neat appearance when the magnet is visibly incorporated.

Plastic-coated magnets

When maximum protection is desired, plastic-coated magnets are an excellent choice. The plastic housing shields the magnet from moisture and damage, making it suitable for long-term use in challenging conditions.

Rubber coated magnets

Rubber coated magnets are widely used for temporary advertising boards, signage, and metal constructions. The rubber layer protects both the magnet and the surface and prevents damage and displacement due to vibrations.

A neat solution for professional environments

Magnetic fixings make signage flexible, low-maintenance, and easily adaptable. This makes them a popular choice within offices, commercial buildings, shops, warehouses, and public buildings.
