Signage needs in Montana, Pretoria
Montana is a working suburb. Along its main routes you find small retail centres, trade counters, service providers and light industrial units, with houses and estates spreading out behind them. Traffic speed is a real factor here: many businesses depend on being read from a moving vehicle, so size, contrast and a simple message count for more than ornament.
That favours dependable, easily maintained signage: bold fascias, pylon or totem panels for shared sites, clear unit numbers, and vehicle branding for the many owner-operators who drive their advertising around.
What businesses and properties typically need
Retail strips and small centres
Shopfront fascias, shared pylon or totem signs and window graphics so each tenant is visible from the parking area and the road.
Light industrial and workshop units
Unit numbers, name boards and safety signage that suit a yard or warehouse frontage.
Service and trade businesses
Bakkie and van branding for builders, installers and delivery operators who work from home bases.
Residential developments
Entrance signs and numbering for new clusters and townhouse developments.

Site surveys and installation
Our base is Rivonia Central in Sandton. We travel to Montana for surveys by appointment, and for multi-unit sites it saves time if one person can speak for the owner or managing agent.
At the survey we measure the fascia or pylon position, look at the approach from the road to judge viewing distance, check the fixing surface and note power. Vehicle branding is done by arranging a time to see the vehicle, or for a fleet, a representative sample. Design, manufacture and installation follow once you approve the mock-up.
For property owners and tenants
Montana is in the City of Tshwane. Roadside pylons and large signs generally attract more municipal attention than a fascia on a shopfront, and we identify likely requirements during the survey and design stage. In shared retail sites, the landlord or managing agent usually controls the tenant signage criteria, and written approval is typically needed.
Tenants should check lease clauses on signage and removal. We examine existing fixings, any old sign remnants and the power available, and we say plainly if an electrician or the landlord needs to supply something before we can install.

Frequently asked questions
Can several tenants share one pylon or totem?
Yes. We design multi-tenant panels with a consistent layout, and can make them easy to update when tenants change.
How do I know what size sign to use?
As a rough guide, many designers allow around 25 mm of letter height per 10 m of viewing distance. We confirm the real figure on site.
Can you brand my work bakkie as well as my shopfront?
Yes. Matching shopfront and vehicle branding keeps a small business recognisable on the road and at the premises.
Do you install in industrial units?
Yes, by appointment. We survey the frontage, check access and fixings, and arrange installation around your operating hours.
