Project Overview

We were tasked to print and install hoarding to the site of The Exchange in Preston on behalf of Alliance Investments. After an initial site measure up we calculated 28 panels with 2 additional single panels to be installed alongside. One of the challenges In the installation was the hill and slope down towards Preston as we wanted to ensure a smooth run for the hoardings.

The hoarding is excellent quality and represents the building well! Roll on the next one!

Our Signage Solution

While the headers and kickers would normally take care of any slight slope – the extremity of this one meant a slightly different onsite solution was needed. We proposed to stagger the boards as standard but have the hill in the bottom and double up the kickers to hide the slope. When it came to the finish we believe we stood up to the challenge that any typical marketing agency faces whilst delivering a seamless finish.

Finishing for the Advertising Hoarding

When it came to the finish we believe we stood up to the challenge that any typical marketing agency faces whilst delivering a seamless finish. The client highlighted gaps between the hoarding where it ended and started so working in partnership between marketing agency and property developer we created custom di-bond panels to clip over the sides and left the job with a neat seamless finish.

Quote

We engaged Heckford to print and install our hoarding at our new site, The Exchange in Preston. Working alongside our account manager Anthony, I found the whole process to be painless from initial quotation through to installation. Additional elements that we required at short notice were installed next day, hassle free – the Heckford team couldn’t have been more helpful. The advertising hoarding is excellent quality and represents the building well! Roll on the next one!
