Mirror Polished Stainless Steel Sign Letter Ref 220
Letter heights start at 40 mm and run up to whatever the facade will carry.
Reference 220 as photographed in our Shenzhen workshop before packing.
Product Overview
What Ref 220 Actually Is
Reference 220 is a custom sign letter set built to the artwork supplied, with the construction chosen to suit the letter height and the fixing surface, made in mirror polished stainless steel with a full mirror polish. It is not a stock item. The photograph shows one set we built; what you receive is the same construction cut to your own letters, your own height and your own colour.
A mirror face borrows the colour of whatever is in front of it, which is why it suits lobbies, boutique frontages and dark cladding where a matt letter would disappear.
Letters are computer-cut for precision, fully welded, and painted to the PMS or RAL reference you supply.

Key Benefits
Why Buyers Specify This Build
Four things reference 220 gives you that a generic letter order does not.
No redraw of your artwork
We cut from the vector file you send. Nothing is traced, so stroke weights and letter spacing survive the trip to the workshop.
One finish across the set
Face and returns are finished together after welding, so the grain runs the same way on every character.
Installs without a specialist crew
A 1:1 template, pre-welded studs and a flat-packed kit mean a general fitter can set the job out and hang it the same day.
Lit or unlit from the same drawing
If lighting is added later, the return depth and cable entries are already sized for it.
The same construction installed on site — depth, finish and fixing carried over unchanged.
Application Scenarios
Where This Reference Belongs
Brand rollouts, franchise programmes, corporate identity refreshes and multi-site fit-outs.
Who it is for. Sign contractors and fit-out companies buying letter sets to install themselves, brand owners rolling an identity across several sites, and architects specifying lettering as part of a facade package.
The problem it solves. A logo that has been redrawn by the sign shop rather than cut from the brand file is the detail a brand manager always spots.
- Wayfinding and Building Identification — Numbers, unit marks and directional lettering that stay readable for the life of the building.
Manufacturing Process
How Ref 220 Is Made
The same four stages run on every set, which is what makes a repeat order match the first one.
We stage
We work from your vector artwork, not from a redraw
Colours stage
Colours are matched to the RAL or Pantone reference you quote
Mixed-Material stage
Mixed-material marks are built as one assembly so the seams line up
The stage
The logo and the lettering ship together on one template
LED modules and power supplies used in our illuminated letters are CE, RoHS and UL approved.

Materials and Quality Control
Material and Finish Notes
Mirror faces show handling marks, so they are wrapped individually and unwrapped only at installation.
Welds are ground back before the finish is applied, so the grain or polish runs across the joint rather than stopping at it. Faces are checked against the approval drawing for letter spacing and stroke weight before packing.
Letters are checked against the approval drawing before they are wrapped.
Certifications
LED modules and power supplies used in our illuminated letters are CE, RoHS and UL approved. Certification of the metalwork itself is TBC — ask for current documentation with your quotation.

Guides That Cover This Build
Answers
Questions About Ref 220
The points buyers usually raise before ordering a sign letter set.
Can you supply a mixed set of materials?
Yes. A logo in one material next to lettering in another is built as a single assembly so the alignment is set in the workshop, not on the wall.
How thick are the letters?
Material starts at 6 mm and goes thicker on request. The right thickness depends on letter height and how close people get to the sign.
How do you handle payment?
By T/T, PayPal or Western Union.
Can you ship by sea instead of courier?
Yes. We arrange shipping by sea, by air or by courier, chosen against the size of the packed order.
How are the letters installed?
Every set ships as a ready-to-install kit with a 1:1 mounting template. The template is drilled from the same file the letters were cut from, so the set-out matches the artwork exactly.
What is the minimum order quantity?
TBC — the source material for this catalogue does not state a minimum order quantity. Send your artwork and we will confirm it with the quotation.
