Abstract
A sign unit is described which may be used in a variety of ways to make up signs. The unit consists of an extruded section having a flat central web (1, 30) and two flanges (2, 3, 32, 33). The outer surface of web (1) remote from the flanges can have a legend printed on it. Alternatively a sign plate (14, 15, 37, 38) may be inserted between flanges (2 and 3) and held against e.g. ribs (4) or in grooves (35, 36). The flanges or formations thereon may be dimensioned to cooperate with a holder on which the unit may be clipped. The sign unit is preferably made of aluminium alloy or rigid plastics material.
