Every so often, clients ask us to correct mistakes made by other signage vendors. La Quinta High School is one example. Earlier, we did see-through window graphics for the cafeteria and perforated window graphics for the library, Parent Center, and athletics department. This time, we replaced badly peeling high school window graphics in Orange County, CA.
What Went Wrong with the Classroom Door Window Graphics Already in Place?
Our specialists visited the client and checked on the problem. It was considerable. Another sign company had installed window graphics on the small glass surface of each classroom door. The vendor neglected to laminate the product. Moreover, we noticed several serious installation mistakes. These problems compromised the safety of students and teachers.
Windows with old graphics
Block-Out Window Graphics for Classroom Doors are a Significant Safety Issue
Our team treated 120 door windows. We started by removing the peeling graphics. Next, we thoroughly cleaned the window surfaces and readied them to install new block-out vinyl. Meanwhile, technicians at the shop manufactured the perforated window graphics that would fit perfectly on the door windows.
The perforated vinyl allows students and teachers to see outside the classroom; however, those standing outside the door cannot look inside. It is an important safety feature that may seem minor but is actually significant. If an intruder were on campus, this person would be unable to see into the classrooms and find out if students and teachers were inside. Of course, we used 3M best practices for installing the graphics. They will last a long time and continue looking great.
Entrust Your Vinyl Graphics to 3M Certified Vinyl Installers
We spent the time and money to undergo 3M’s rigorous installer training. Because the vinyl manufacturer’s representatives hosted it, our team learned the best practices for product selection, site preparation, and installation. The training was hands-on, and the manufacturer reps did not pull any punches. As a result, every vinyl wall, window, door, and vehicle graphics we install is done right – the first time around. There will not be any bubbles, peeling, or material shrinkage. Our work at La Quinta High School proves why working with certified installers is critical.
