The Downside of Commercial Lights

 

A few years back, our ancestors may have dreamt of making our streets, homes, and building structures shine brightly. They may have wished that we will not be walking the streets with nothing but candle sticks or torches to light our path at night anymore. Moreover they may not have dreamt that with the changing times, we may not have made the night like day and the day like night. Architectural design lighting fixtures such as gooseneck lighting, warehouse lights and pendant lights which are popular lighting fixtures among business owners and most especially among advertisers played a huge role in changing our lifestyle. It had opened a lot of business opportunities to everyone. It had also made the night a lot safer for navigation for everyone.

However, if they see us today, they may not have wished the same. These gooseneck lights, warehouse lights and other architectural design lighting fixtures may have provided us with protection at night and made our lives easier, it also had some negative impact to our lives especially to our children’s. With all the glamour brought about by these lighting fixtures, it is hard for every parent to keep their child stay safely in the protection of our home. For all we know, most kids in general loves the thrill of going out with friends at night. They find it adventurous and more fun compared to staying home and studying. I pretty much understand where they are coming from. I used to sneak out and in of the house like a thief too. But eventually they found out my whereabouts. Although I did nothing that will make them shameful of me, I still feel ashamed that I have disobeyed them. What’s ironic is that after they found out, let hell break loose, and forgave me, they promised to allow me to go out just as long as I ask for their permission; I decided not to go out anymore. The fun and adventure of sneaking out and in of the house has ended. 

They may have done some reverse psychology method on me or perhaps they may have some of these adventures themselves when they were as young as I was. Whatever it was, the bright lights of these commercial gooseneck exterior lights no longer attract me like a moth to the fire.

Traffice Signs For Our Road Safety

Vehicular accidents are one of the leading causes of death across the globe. It is quite alarming that in spite of all the driving lessons we have, we still get involve into this type of accident. Traffic enforcers make sure that all motorists follow traffic rules and regulations by having traffic signs everywhere. Traffic lights and street lamps are also a great help in preventing road accidents. However there are still news reports of vehicular accidents everyday in all parts of the world? Has our government fail in to ensure our safety or the traffic rules are not yet perfected? Or is it because all of us are not responsible motorists?

Traffic signs  and road signs on metal sign frames are not put up on the street for decorative purposes. They are set up not for any reason but for our safety. We can find them in almost every to send us a message that we should be careful. However, some of us often fail to read these road signs. These road signs could have helped us avoid from hurting ourselves as well as others. This little misstep can cause us of our life and someone else’ life. There are also times that we fail to follow a simple rule that we should not drink and drive. Driving under the influence of drugs is also a big no. Texting while driving is also considered illegal. We should remember that every time we hit the road we are not only responsible for our life but the lives of others as well.

Being a responsible driver is not easy to most of us. To those who have no respect to the traffic rules should not be allowed to drive. It also means that they have no respect to life as well. They are the reasons why even the most careful driver gets into an accident. We should also remember that road signs and other traffic warning devices can greatly help us avoid accidents. Therefore, we need to learn them by heart.

Custom Sign For Your Business

A few days ago I pass by a newly opened store in our neighborhood with no signage or any indication of its name nor the nature of its business. Intrigued I went in and was greeted by a cheerful sales clerk who informed me that they are not yet officially in business. 

According to the sales clerk, their custom commercial sign has not been delivered yet and he is waiting for its delivery when I entered the store. I also found out that they are selling several types of Chinese tea and some Chinese medicines which according to the sales clerk are very effective in treating almost all types of ailments. I am not a big fan of herbal medicines or tea but I bought some tea products anyway. I was told that the Chinese teas especially the green tea they are selling is effective in weight reduction.  It is also high in anti oxidants and can lower high blood pressure. A week later after drinking the green tea, I lose a few pounds. So I returned to the store to buy some more teas and this time a huge custom sign bearing the name of the store is proudly hanging outside the same store greeted me. There were also a lot of customers waiting to be served. I was told by the same sales clerk who assisted me that their business has been doing fine since their opening day. The custom sign also made a big difference to their business because it gave them a sense of identity. 

Signage used to be an eyesore for me but I perfectly understood now why they are necessary in every business or commercial establishments. Without it, nameless business establishments would appear illegal and customers will not dare enter the store. These signage bear their name. Just like our names, signage also serves as their identity.

Securing Your Signage With Durable Sign Mounting Hardware

 

Signage and large billboards are often seen in the most crowded part of the city. You can often find them downtown especially in the shopping malls and hotels. They are also present in places which travelers pass all the time such as the bus stops or train stations. Some of these signage and billboards are put up to raise social awareness. But most of the time they are used to advertise products.

Considering the number of people passing through in these crowded areas, advertisers and marketing experts must also take into account the safety of the crowd. Surely, nobody would want any of these signage and billboards falling off and hurting everyone. If this type of accident happens, it will not only hurt your company, you will also be held liable for risking the life and safety of everyone present in the vicinity. Thus, it is important that people involved in installing the signage and billboards must use not just any sign mounting hardware. Sign mounting hardware such as the functional brackets like the oxide black stainless steel S hooks, jack chain and the likes, which are often used for mounting these signage and billboards, must be durable and should be within the standard set by the experts to ensure the safety of everyone. Moreover, these sign mounting hardware are not only durable but they are manufactured in an attractive way to match your artfully made commercial signage and billboards.

A company which is not only after the increase of its sales but with the safety and well-being of their customers, prospective customers and even its competition as well is admirable. A good advertising such as the billboards, banners and signage will probably make the people notice your product. But it is the importance you give to your customers or prospective customers will earn you their loyalty.

Travelling With The Help Of Street Signs

 

Not all of us know how to use the GPS . Neither know how to use the Google map nor Google earth. Unlike our great forefathers, we are not skilled to know how to get directions using the natural elements of this world. For these traffic officers, traffic signs and street names are of great help and important to a lot of travelers and commuters. Even those who can barely read will be able to reach their destination just as long as they are familiar with the shapes of these cast aluminum sign frame.

Isn’t it that whenever we go to a new place or travel to a strange place, we usually depend on the road signs which we pass along the way. Although not all of us has a sense of direction, still these road signs or traffic signs help us avoid accidents . It helps us reach our destination safe and sound especially if we are traveling at night. However, there are times when these signage are not that helpful especially when it is dilapidated and are hard to read. That is quite distressing for travelers especially those who are not familiar to the place. Even those who are suppose to know the place at the palm of their hands will have difficulty in finding the right way to reach their destination since landmarks and other road identifications are known to change because of some natural elements.

I know I have said many times in my previous blogs that I have no sense of direction and often get lost even in my own place. I have been too dependent to technology such as my GPS that had somehow made me panic and cripple if I am not without it. But somehow I still manage to reach my destination with a few hiccups. But worst things could have happened if there are no road signs, street names and other helpful signage which tell me where is leading to where.

Street Lights And Traffic Signs For Road Safety

Road accidents or vehicular accidents is known to be one of the leading causes of death among Americans according to FHWA or Federal Highway Administration. It is also the leading cause of death across the globe base on statistics. In spite of the best efforts of offices such as FHWA who are responsible for making our roads safe, this type of fatality still happen. Is it because of our lack of discipline? Or is it because of our carelessness? Perhaps. But then again, accidents just happen.

I have a few near death experiences because of road accidents myself. My last experience happened sometime in mid-April. My cousin and I were driving home from their farm in spite of my uncle's wishes that we spend the night with them. We should have listened to him because on our way home we almost crashed into a road safety barrier which could have badly injured if not killed us. That would not have happened if there are roadway lighting or street lights along the way. There are no safety road signs or traffic signs to guide motorist as well. 

Street lights and traffic signs may not ensure total road safety or prevent accidents. But somehow, these will lessen road accidents and other traffic related accidents.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

 

We are living in an era where almost everything we own or possess are easily disposed such as cups, spoons, forks, plates, and towels. It does not matter whether they are expensive or not because these days you can seldom find items which are 100% durable. Compared to the products which were sold a few decades ago, the current products are inferior. For example, one of the electric fans we have at home was purchased sometime in the mid 80’s and amazingly, it still works. On the other hand the electric fan which I bought earlier this year does not work like it used to. What happened was that the quality of the the product is often compromised in order to sell it at an affordable price. Some manufacturers do not care about quality anymore just as long as they earn. Sure I purchased the new fan at a lower price but the stress it gives me every time it fails to work is incomparable. I would rather pay for something expensive just as long as it will last than buy something that will only work whenever it wants to. 

However there are still manufacturers such as the Signbracketstore which would ensure the effectiveness and durability of the products they sell in the market. They value customer satisfaction more than anything else. Everything they sell is satisfaction guaranteed which means that if you are not satisfied with the products such as the sign hardware, banner brackets, and other signage related items, they can be returned and 100% refunded within 15 days upon purchase. You can seldom find a manufacturer like them who values their customer and establishes for a long term relationship by ensuring the quality and effectiveness of their products. 

It is hard to stay afloat in in the business especially when you have a lot of competition. The only way to survive is to be even better. Always treat your customers right and for sure you will be rewarded with their loyalty.
