What is the Circle Blade Sign?
The Circle Blade Sign is a projecting wall sign with an 11″ (28 cm) diameter face, made from folded aluminum. It mounts perpendicular to the wall on a 2″ (5 cm) folded tab with pre-drilled holes, so it's read from along a corridor or street rather than face-on. It's supplied as a blank, most commonly used for restroom and wayfinding signage.
What else is the Circle Blade Sign called?
The Circle Blade Sign is also known as a projecting sign, flag sign, or wayfinding sign.

Because it projects from the wall, it's read from along a corridor — unlike a flush-mounted plaque, which is only visible once you're in front of it.
