General claims

FAQ

What makes effective wayfinding signage?

Effective wayfinding signage combines strategic placement at decision points, clear visual hierarchy, consistent terminology, intuitive symbols, and appropriate sizing for viewing distances.

How do you determine where wayfinding signs should be placed?

Gigantic Signs conducts comprehensive facility audits mapping user journeys from entry to destinations, identifying decision points where directional guidance is needed, and analysing traffic flow patterns specific to the facility's layout and visitor behaviour.

Can wayfinding systems accommodate facility changes?

Yes, Gigantic Signs designs modular wayfinding systems with replaceable inserts allowing easy updates when rooms change function, tenants move, or facilities expand.

What's included in a comprehensive wayfinding system?

Complete wayfinding systems include exterior directional signs, building directories, corridor directionals, room identification, floor plans, overhead signs, and specialised elements tailored to the facility type.

How much does it cost to wrap a vacant shopfront with hoarding graphics during a fit-out?

Cost depends on the hoarding panel area and whether Gigantic Signs supplies install and removal, so a vacant shopfront hoarding wrap is quoted from the panel dimensions rather than a fixed price. Hoarding graphics are printed and fixed to the existing temporary fencing or barrier at the Kent Town facility.

How long does it take to implement a full hospital or campus wayfinding system?

Gigantic Signs states large hospitals or corporate campuses can require 3 to 6 months for complete wayfinding system implementation, against 2 to 4 weeks for a small Adelaide facility.
