Panel Trim DIY Lengths Large

Our Large Panel Trim has a cover face of 45mm (which takes a 5mm panel), and is specifically designed for the deeper panels and/or for use in particularly windy locations.

  • We stock Anodised Silver, and powder coated Black or White.
  • Each completed frame requires 4 corner fixings.
  • If your sign Is longer than a single panel, you should use a pair of panel locks to keep the panels together to ensure no gaps appear between the sheets.
  • Large PanelTrim frames will take a 5mm thick panel, such as ACM or PVC Foam.

It is best practice to suspend the panel from the top rail by means of a 'hanger strip' so that the panel will always hang straight & flat.

If you just stand the panel in the bottom rail there is a danger that it may become distorted due to it's own weight, particularly in the summer when the panel can get very hot & lose their rigidity. This sort of problem is more likely when the panel is Acrylic or Foam PVC, but even if your using ACM, its still better to use Hanger Strips because then the bottom of the panel dosn't get stuck in the build up of dirt in the bottom frame, making them easier to get them in & out in the future.

TIPS   

  1. Remember that the panel needs to be loose enough to allow it to expand in the summer & contract in the winter without it becoming trapped & then distorted so we suggest that your panel be 30mm less than the overall frame size, and that you notch the corners as shown so as to prevent the panel nipping in the corners.
  2. If your sign is made up of more than one panel you really should 'half lap' the joint and fit anti flex plates and put 'Panel Locks' at the top. This is to keep the panels tight together at all times, which looks better, and also prevents the wind getting behind the panels, which can risk blowouts.

A run of grease along the hanger strip & on the frame where it touches the panel makes it easier to get in & out in the future.

Panel Trim sign frames are aluminium extrusion systems designed to hold and secure rigid sign panels. The main reasons for using a Panel Trim frame are that there are no face fixings spoiling the look of the sign and the panel hangs flat without any ‘cockles’ or dimples around the screws. Commonly used for outdoor and commercial applications, they ensure durability and a professional finish. 

The Panel Trim frame kits come complete with all the Rawlplugs, screws and corner cleats required for installation.

A frame is ‘value adding’ to your sign panel. The perceived value for your customer is higher than the actual cost, which increases your profit margin.

You’ll need a drill with the bit appropriate to your wall, a screwdriver and a level.

Panel Trim is very easy and quick to fit.

The frame comes as a complete kit with everything you need. The frames are pre drilled and come with the corner cleats already inserted. All you need to do is drill the wall, insert the supplied Rawlplugs and the screw the frame to the wall. Then slide your sign panel in and then fix the loose end in place.
