There are several things to consider with the height of signs, they are:

● Sprinkler interference –
Signs should always be placed at sufficient distance from sprinkler heads to ensure the diffusion is not altered or prevented by the signs or rails. If hanging the signs above, this is not an issue.

● Block stack storage height –
The signs will need to be higher than the highest stacking point, but you should consider here that if the signs are hanging behind the front edge of the stack, they will need to be higher still, due to the angle of sight.

● Scanner distance capabilities –
Most modern scanners are equipped with long range scanning components, however this should be checked with the manufacture/supplier. If you want to test the distance before ordering, you might consider requesting a sample to perform on site tests.

● Sign/barcode size –
In a simple explanation, the wider a barcode is, the greater the distance it can be scanned at. Having a wider barcode will need a bigger sign, resulting in a more expensive product.

Depending on the scale and access requirements we may be able to working without effecting your operation, or we may need to provide detailed work plans which show how much we can do, where and when. The project team will also detail access requirements and safe working areas to be agreed and confirmed with the customer.

Yes, this is a specialty of ASG Services. Working in and around a fully operational distribution center can be daunting, not to mention it having a significant impact on productivity.

Absolutely, we would be happy to do with this with any order.

There is always a best fit design, but a best fit for your facility is key to making your operation efficient, but not necessarily the same for another.

We are able to recommend ideas from previous designs, from knowledge and experience in the industry, as well as samples for you to test. Most customers have an idea of what they want or need, if we think there can be improvements or something has been overlooked, we’ll let you know and discuss the details.

This is potentially a long answer, however to make things a little more simple… We ask for a list of location references or sign data to be provided, ideally on an excel spreadsheet. In addition, we would ask for any drawings or design ideas you have, based on the quotation you received.

If you change your design idea and need a new quote just ask, it’s better to ask before we start production.

As well as the information to create your signs, we’ll also need payment and/or invoicing details, a delivery address or site address for a warehouse sign installation.

Lead times are variable, owing to quantity, complexity and production volumes at the time of order. We prefer to work swiftly with every order since we never know the scale or quantity of the next, so you can be assured that we will not delay the process once your order is placed. We do typically aim for a 1-2 week turnaround from order confirmation.

Order quantities are irrelevant at ASG, we treat all orders as a customized requirement. We do have a minimum order value in dollars, but this is nearly always irrelevant.
