Horses Stable Door Sign

All our signs are made from hand picked Prime A Grade European Oak, the text is carved out using our CNC machine creating the perfect finish. Please note that as Oak is a natural timber the grain will vary from sign to sign. In European oak you will get a variety of grain changes, muldullary rays and small knots.* Sizes of 300mm+ wide will be constructed of two planks glued together, a small joint line will be visible on the outside edge.A CAD drawing will be emailed after you placed your order to show exactly how your sign will look, once this has been approved we cannot accept returns.

We have selected the most commonly asked fonts as an easy option to pick from, however if you would like a font we have not got listed then please get in contact to see if we have it available. Images of the fonts to chose from are in the image gallery to view.Please be aware, the more text you have the smaller it becomes, so choose the correct size!

With this option, not only do we still carve the timber, we then apply 2 coats of enamel sign writing paint into the engraved text. Black painted text is the most visible option to stand out against the colour of oak. The gold option is visible but not suited for smaller signs with smaller engraved letters.All our paint is Zinsser allcoat paint mixed to Farrow and Ball colours or stock colours.

Ours oiled signs are treated with Rubio Monocoat Woodcream to give protection from the elements.Ultimate Protection 100% ecological, 0% hazardous substances (VOC)Maintenance freeWater-repellent with long-lasting pearl effectPlease note:Transparent  (clear woodcream), which allows the wood to age naturally, but protects it and makes it water-repellent.

Our signs can come with a choice of ways to hang your signs.Pre Drilled Holes – Pre Drilled hole space is generally 20x20mm in from each corner on 120/150/180 & 240mm high signs. On the 70 & 95mm signs the pre drilled screw holes are centered.Hidden Keyhole Brackets – If you choose keyhole brackets for flush easy fitting, simply screw 2 or 4 screws (dependant on height of the sign) in the wall that the sign will be mounted and slide the sign onto the screws. (they need to protrude out slightly to fit into the keyhole brackets). Our pre drilled and hidden fixing options both come with A4 Marine grade screws and wall stand offs. A2 or A4 stainless crews must be used at all times with Oak to ensure black/purple tannin stains do not occur.If your sign cracks/warps or turns grey we can not be held responsible for this, as wood is a natural product. It may do this once exposed to the sun and the weather.

Please note the order date of your sign as we have changed the products we use on the sign over the years to improve our service and quality of signs.If your sign cracks/warps or turns grey we can not be held responsible for this, as wood is a natural product. It may do this once exposed to the sun and the weather.
