About Advertising Hoardings

Our advertising hoardings are designed to grab attention for your construction project while maintaining a level of privacy and security for the construction site itself.

Using the very latest hardware, we print direct onto the panels using premium quality, UV weather-resistant inks, that produce absolutely stunning results. This enables you to promote your project to passing traffic and display a marketing call to action that generates sales.

What Materials Are Used For The Panels?

Our advertising hoarding panels are designed to transform your building site or store refurbishment and are available in the following materials.

4mm Correx
Our cheapest panel solution, Correx is a corrugated plastic material that is ideal for temporary site boards. Affordable, lightweight, easy to fit and totally weatherproof. Printed direct using UV stable, eco-friendly outdoor inks.

3mm or 5mm Foamex (Rigid Foam board)

This is a lightweight rigid plastic board that can be screwed onto your ply hoarding. It has a smooth surface that looks great when it is printed. This is our mid-priced panel and is a popular option. We recommend the 5mm thick version for greater durability.

3mm Dibond

Also known as ACP (Aluminium Composite Panel), Dibond is a PET core between layers of aluminium. Our most expensive panel option, but for good reason. It offers the greatest durability and prints beautifully. Due to its composition it can be affixed in a variety of ways without bending or cracking.

440 gsm PVC Banner

An economical solution for hoardings. Our PVC material is durable and lightweight. Our impressive 2.5m wide printer allows us to print seamless hoarding banners for incredible results. PVC Banner can be easily screwed or nailed to ply hoardings for a quick and affordable finish.

What Size Are Your Hoarding Panels?

Our panels are available in both standard sizes and custom sizes. Our standard size, 8ftx4ft (2440mm x 1220mm) is by far the most popular size we sell. If you are looking for a custom size we can also produce this, just select the option and enter your panel dimensions in the boxes above.

Can You Offer An Anti-Graffiti Protective Laminate?

Yes, we can offer a special protective over-laminate that protects against graffiti. Just select this option when placing your quote request above.

Can You Design My Hoardings?

We offer a comprehensive sign design service at a small additional cost, carried out by our team of graphic experts. Simply give us your specification and any branding assets and we will bring your ideas to life.

Can You Install My Hoardings?

Yes, we offer a nationwide installation service. Please contact us to discuss your requirements and we can provide a cost to you.

How Quickly Will They Be Delivered?

Delivery is dependent on the number of panels required, how quickly print ready artwork is provided and the location of the site. We strive to get the printed panels out to you as quickly as possible. If you have a specific deadline, you can enter that in the boxes above when requesting a quote and we will work to that.

Do Your Hoardings Meet All The Legal Requirements?

Yes! We’ve worked on some of the biggest construction projects in the UK, so we know the various legal requirements and regulations that need to be adhered to in order to ensure the safety of the public. We can work with your contractor or temporary works coordinator to make sure your hoardings are up to standard.

Whether you're a novice or a professional when it comes to artwork, we're here to give you the guidance needed to make sure your end result is print perfect.

I don't have print ready artwork, can you design it for me?

If you have the elements, such as text, logos, and text, we can take these and create a print ready design layout for you at a small additional cost. We have a number of affordable set price packages available to suit any requirements. Many of our products have a design service as an additional extra for instant ordering. For products that don't please contact us to discuss your brief. Visit our in-house design service page to find out more.

I will be supplying print ready artwork.

Many of our print products have the option to upload your artwork on the product page. If that option is not available, you will receive an email shortly after placing your order with instructions on how to send your artwork files.

In order to avoid any delays in production, please follow our guidelines below to make sure your artwork is ready to go. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch to talk to one of our team.

Resolution - 100dpi At Full Size

Generally, 100 dpi is a good standard for images with the document size set at full size of the large format printed product. For example, if you want to order a 40"×60" print, the image size should be 4000 pixels (40 x 100) by 6000 pixels (60 x 100) at 100 dpi.

100% scale at 100 dpi
50% scale at 200 dpi
25% scale at 400 dpi
10% scale at 1000 dpi

If any dimension of the product is greater than 5000mm, please produce the artwork to scale. For very large artwork such as hoarding walls, 10% scale can be utilised at 1000dpi for images, or use vectors as these will scale perfectly.

Bleed - 5mm All Around At The Final Print Size

If you are creating set size artwork for hardware then please use the product template. If you have ordered a custom size product please ensure you include 5mm of bleed on your design.

You only need to add print bleed to your artwork if the design extends to the edge of the page. If all of your text and images are in the centre of the design and are surrounded by a plain white background, you won’t need to worry about print bleed as the edges will blend seamlessly into your overall design. If any element of the design goes right up to the edge of the page, a 5mm bleed on all sides is necessary.

Colours - Please Supply All Colours As CMYK+

Computer screens use RGB, while printers use CMYK. You may ask why this matters? Most colours created in RGB can be closely matched in CMYK but some cannot. If colours are critical we always suggest ordering a printed proof.

Other things you can do to check your colours:

- Use a calibrated monitor (colours vary from monitor to monitor)
- Use a printed CMYK colour swatch to check your colours
- Don't check samples from a desktop printer
- Order a printed proof from us (this may cause an increase in lead time)

Fonts - Please Embed, Flatten, Or Convert To Curves

For large format print, we recommend that the minimum font site is 8pt (point size).

Our preferred file format for print-ready artwork is a PDF, please make sure you embed any fonts for perfect results. With other file formats please ensure fonts used in your design are converted to outlines and include all fonts and images used when you send your files to us.

Do You Need A Proof?

If you are providing print ready artwork, we do not provide a proof as standard, which enables us to get your print to you quicker. If you require a proof please get in touch with us to discuss. We do provide a free technical file check as standard, as outlined below.

We can provide a machine print proof for the extra cost of £25 plus delivery. This involves printing an A3 proof on the machine that will be used to produce your final print. This will give you an accurate representation of colour. If you are using our design service, we do send out a PDF proof, which is an accurate representation of content and positioning. It is not an exact indicator of the final colour due to the limitations of screens.

Quoted delivery dates for print are from approval of artwork, so please bear in mind that requesting a proof may delay the delivery date of your product.

Delivery

After you have placed your order a provisional despatch and delivery date will be sent to you via email.

Our standard delivery time for printed products is 2-5 working days after artwork has been approved for print. If you have a specific deadline, please contact us to ensure we can meet this. Please check that your artwork meets the guidelines above to prevent any delays in approval.

Free Artwork Check

Before we go to print, we will carry out a free technical check on your artwork. If there are any issues, we will contact you to let you know what needs to be changed.

Colour Matching

Our printers and media are of the highest standard and are carefully calibrated to produce vibrant, full colour prints. The process involves CMYK printing and this means it is not always possible to match Pantone colours, but they will be converted to the nearest CMYK equivalent.

If exact colour matching is critical, please send us a physical copy of other printed material, such as a letterhead or brochure, and we will check your file prior to printing. If we cannot achieve a reasonable match we will call you to discuss.

Please send any physical examples to: Discount Displays, 31-35 Wortley Road, Croydon, Surrey, CRO 3EB.
