How site surveys and installation work
From Rivonia we arrange Ormonde surveys by appointment. We measure, photograph the sign position from the street, check what the wall is made of, and look for power if the sign is to be lit. If you are replacing an existing sign, we assess its frame and cabling at the same time.
Once approved, we manufacture and install by agreed date.
For property owners and tenants (City of Johannesburg)
Ormonde is within the City of Johannesburg. Larger, projecting or illuminated signs may require municipal approval, which we raise during the survey. Tenants need landlord consent, and in shared industrial buildings the owner may specify where each business's sign can go.
Face-brick, sheeted and plastered walls each need different fixings. We choose them on the day and confirm the wall will carry the weight.
