The signs you look after
- Site entrance totems, monoliths and tenant boards
- Car park, directional and traffic signs
- Reception, directory and floor signs in multi-let offices
- Fire safety, health and safety and statutory notices in common parts
- Tenant fascias where the landlord controls the frame or the rules
What gets in the way
- Tenant changes mean tenant panels and directories go out of date
- No baseline of signs when a building is bought, sold or re-let
- Contractors quote from site visits that should have been unnecessary
- Responsibility for each sign (landlord or tenant) isn't written down anywhere
How Signcensus helps
- Survey each building once and keep the record live as signs change
- Use a custom field to record who owns and maintains each sign
- Filter every site for damaged or out-of-date signs and brief contractors with photos
- Give managing agents and contractors their own logins
Every sign is pinned to its plan with photos, a sign type, a status and your own fields, and every change is logged with who made it and when. See all features.
Where to start
Start with the building that generates the most sign requests. Read how to keep a sign estate in good order and what a signage asset register is.
Questions
- Can we record whether the landlord or the tenant owns a sign?
- Yes. Add a custom field such as “Responsibility” with the values you use, and filter by it.
