Interior signage and wayfinding for offices and facilities in Jeddah
Reception and door plaques, floor directories, safety and emergency signs in Arabic and English, built from a sign schedule agreed with you before production.
What it is and who it is for
Which option suits your site and Jeddah's climate
| Type | Best for | Lifespan and Jeddah climate | Lighting and finish |
|---|---|---|---|
| Acrylic: clear, frosted, coloured or back-painted | Door and reception plaques with a clean look at moderate cost | Interior; tolerates daily cleaning and does not yellow out of direct sun | Unlit, or halo-lit at reception |
| Brushed stainless or aluminium | Premium offices and directories in high-traffic buildings | Withstands scuffing and frequent cleaning in corridors | Unlit or halo |
| Brass | Classic identities and entrance plaques | Needs a protective coat to hold its colour in humidity | Unlit |
| Vinyl on glass and frosted film with a cut logo | Meeting rooms and glass office fronts | Interior; removes cleanly when names change | Not applicable |
| Reflective or photoluminescent exit signs | Every facility: exits, assembly points, evacuation maps | Fade-resistant, in the approved wording and both languages | Photoluminescent |

Questions clients ask before ordering
Must wayfinding signs be bilingual?
In public facilities and stations the regulations require Arabic and English for wayfinding and emergency exit signs, Arabic first. We typeset both consistently across every sign.
Which material suits office plaques best?
Acrylic for a clean look at moderate cost, brushed stainless for premium offices, brass for a classic identity. We send samples before fabrication.
How long does an office signage package take?
It depends on the number of signs and the materials; production starts after the schedule and samples are approved, and we confirm the timeline in the quote.
What is a sign schedule?
A list of every sign: type, Arabic and English text, location on the plan, material. We build it with you first so nothing is remade.
Do you make emergency exit and assembly point signs?
Yes, reflective or photoluminescent, in the approved wording, in Arabic and English, compliant with the Saudi Building Code and civil defence requirements.
At what height are wayfinding signs mounted?
For shopper signs in complexes the Jeddah Amanah guide sets 2.5 m, out of reach, with clear single-colour letters on a contrasting background. Door plaques go beside the handle at about 1.5 m.
Can names be changed later?
Yes, with interchangeable slat systems or paper/acrylic insert plaques. We recommend it for offices where titles change.
Do you produce braille and tactile signs?
Yes, with raised characters and Arabic and English braille for buildings applying universal access requirements.
How much does a reception sign cost?
It depends on material, size, lighting and mounting. Send the logo, wall size and a photo for an itemised quote.
Do you install after hours?
Yes, most office projects are installed in the evening or at the weekend to avoid disruption.
