Welcome visitors with established timber sign systems suited to their surroundings. From entrance and vehicle portals to location signs and map portals for parks, recreation and your site.

From material selection to its next destination.
Design a lasting foundation
A calm timber structure can carry different messages. Put changeable information on a separate panel.
Care for the construction
Check posts, connections and panels periodically. We discuss care suited to the selected species and finish.
Replace only what is needed
A changed route or new identity need not mean a completely new portal. Dismantlable connections enable targeted updates.

Frequently asked questions
Which timber wayfinding systems can you supply?
We use established systems: an entrance portal with lighting canopy, vehicle portals, a map portal and a location sign on a timber post. We adapt the panel design to your site.
Why is timber a considered choice?
Timber is a renewable raw material. FSC-certified sourcing and a considered design give the support responsible provenance and a useful long-term role.
Which timber species are possible?
Options include chestnut for posts and supports. We select the species and dimensions around the desired appearance and construction.
Can the sign carry our own photo or logo?
Certainly. Nature photography, branding, maps or combinations of pictograms make the sign recognisable to your visitors.
Can an entrance portal be lit?
Yes, a suitable version can include a lighting canopy. We consider installation, power connection and maintenance.
Can I change the information later?
We can design for that. Mounting the panel separately allows the timber structure to remain when the message changes.
Do you provide design and installation?
Yes. BlinkOut helps from route planning and graphic design to the selected specification, fixings and installation.
