The 500T & 525T Series is a non-illuminated tackboard directory that utilizes natural cork or felt covered cork tackboards for display of posters or changing notices.
Materials and Construction
Standard tackboard material consists of 1/2" thick tackboard with natural cork laminated to the face. Any standard felt color is available to cover cork material if specified.
Felt colors are indicated by an order number and have been oriented to coordinate with the standard plaque colors, but they are not an exact match.
Integral Header Panels
Integral header panels are offered in the standard 5" height and in all Vomar acrylic colors. Graphic processes include front surface silkscreen or applied graphics such as vinyl die-cut
letters or dimensional cutout letters. "H" after elevation number indicates the standard 5" integral header panel. For exterior environments, the standard cork material must be laminated to an aluminum back. Felt covering is not recommended for exterior exposure and black Koroseal vinyl covered boards are recommended in lieu of felt.
Cover Panels and Door Types
Standard cover panel is a hinged clear glass panel that is held in place by spring retainers. A clear acrylic plastic cover panel material can be substituted for clear glass if required. Doors
with tamper-proof retainers for locking can be specified. A dust-seal is recessed into the reveal area between the frame and glass cover panel.
