Office complex directory signs for Tempe, AZ, area buildings are not just a good idea but a very real necessity. What is it about this signage solution that makes them so important? A closer look at the benefits answers this question.

Wayfinding. If there are multiple businesses that have set up shop in your office building, visitors, clients and customers are going to need some helping finding their way around. This is particularly true if the structure is large or part of a sprawling campus of buildings. Pylons with arrows – or post and panel signs – are a great directory solution for the latter.

Savings. Putting up suite signs for office buildings in Tempe, AZ, is a lot less expensive than hiring a building receptionist or concierge. While this personal service has a lot to offer to a company, it does cost a leasing company quite a bit of money to fulfill a task that some well-placed and well-designed lobby directories could also handle.

Changeable. The tenants in the building change. The names of the primary office holders change as well. With adjustable directory signage, you can make instant note of these changes, which cuts down on confusion by clients who are coming to visit an office and looking for the new name on the door.

Customizable. The atmosphere of your building is not accidental good luck. Instead, it is the product of careful interior decorating choices and quite possibly the touch of a professional who helped tie it all together. Since having suite and directory signs is a must for your Tempe building, there is no reason why these markers cannot harmonize with the look and feel of the lobby or the individual floors.

Of course, to reap these benefits from the signage that you put up in your office building, consider the way that the individual markers work together.

Directories and suite signs. Use similar materials and fonts when having your directory signs as well as your suite markers printed or engraved. If you favor metal, stick without the material across the building. While inside the offices the tenants may choose different materials, on the outside, the look should be cohesive.

Wording and display. If you choose to put the suite number on top of the suite sign displays, do so across the board. This is particularly important if your directory is sorted by suite numbers. If the opposite is the case – your directory is sorted in alphabetical order by tenant – it is a good idea to display the tenant name on the suite marker above the number.

Repetition is a good thing. Wall-mounted directory signs, stand-alone pylons, floor graphics and overhead signage are just a few of the ways that you can help visitors to your buildings locate the offices that they are looking for. By duplicating your wayfinding signage, you ensure that folks who might not have been paying attention to one marker have a second chance at finding the information that they need.
