Easy as 1, 2, 3!

The Metro 3 is a product Horizon Signs have supplied to Leeds Metro for the last three years and it continues to prove itself as a high quality poster case that stands the trials and tribulations thrown at it day by day.
Utilised in all bus shelters throughout West Yorkshire the Metro 3 was designed to ensure the local council can display their logo on the back whilst still giving easy access from the front to allow for a quick and easy change of the posters an timetables.

The Centro Wing

The Centro Wing is another bespoke Horizon product which is to be utilised by Centro, who act as the Transport Executive for the Birmingham area. Horizon has been commissioned to supply the Centro Wing for the next five years and we’re confident the product will continue to be a huge success.

Problem Solved

Horizon Signs designed this specific case alongside Centro to help them overcome a particularly expensive problem they had encountered. This came about due to the fact there are two types of shelter used in Birmingham whereby some have flat panels and same of the shelters have ridged panels. Previously Centro have had to have two different types of timetable cases that utilised different fixings dependant on the type of shelter. This resulted in maintenance teams having to take more units to a shelter that required a case changing to ensure they had the correct version for the particular shelter.

To over come this problem Horizon designed the case so that it had hinged “Wings” on the reverse that can be pulled out and used to be fixed to a shelter with either ridged or, alternatively, the case can  be left flat against the back of the case should it need to fastened to a flat panelled shelter.

Ultimately, this Centro Wing is proving to be hugely cost effective product and has warranted Horizon Signs registering the design.
