How to Reduce Uneasiness when Choosing Cubicle Name Plate Holders?

You might not realize the problem with your cubicle name plate until you do the math and find out how costly it is to replace them. The average turnover rate across industries is about 18%, so it is safe to assume you will be replacing an equal amount of name plates each year. And on top of that, you will also have to take on with changing environments, as employee designations, locations, and workstations change. Therefore, having a plan in place for how you are going to manage all those name plate updates is critical to avoid unnecessary expenses.

Cubicle name plate holders come as a common solution as you can easily swap out the insert relatively quickly. However, these holders are not the perfect ones. Without customization, you will likely be stuck with a generic look that doesn’t match your corporate brand. Therefore, your choice includes either to customize your cubicle name plate holders, which can be costly, or customize your inserts, which further creates challenges for the staff.

Here, in this webcast we have come up with the essential considerations when choosing cubicle name plate holders-

• Transferability

It is not unusual for employees to change spaces, make lateral changes, join a new team, or even make a switch between working from one area to another on a regular basis, and their name plate needs to go with them. Options for cubicle name plate holders are no longer restricted to static plates. Now, some come with Velcro on their back, which makes them perfect for sticking to felt cubicle partitions. However, other ‘over the cube’ designs enable you to simply slip your mounts over the top of the cubicle. The best cubicle name plate holders allow you to just remove the insert and switch it to a new one.

• Availability

It is also possible to order custom name plate holders in line with your interior office branding, but this creates a problem with the availability. Creating new name plate holders on the basis of company specifications will take time, which ultimately will cause a delay in getting them for the office staff. Therefore, choosing a mass-produced option is a much better option to make sure that you will be able to get more cubicle name plate holders as required.

• The Standard Dimensions

Until and unless you choose a completely customized option, you are going to have to create name inserts to go inside of your cubicle name plate holder. That clearly means that you are going to use a template. Choosing name plates with standard dimensions, usually 8.5” wide and 2.5” high will make it much easier to find a template and update it as required.

The bottom line is you really need to think of the cubicle name plate holder as the frame of your sign. Obviously, you will want one that is aesthetically pleasing but most of your branding and customization is not going to come from it. Instead, it is going to come from how you manage your inserts properly.

What’s the Difference between Cubicle Name Plates and Customized Inserts?

The scope of sign alerts is often overshadowed, and this is nothing more than a shame as it is where you can really show your creativity and corporate branding. So instead of just using plain white card stock paper, you can always use textured paper that complements your office space. You can also get artistic with the writing and font choices by choosing distinct colors to match your brand. And as you can print out as many inserts as you want, this customization is cost-effective and far more cost-effective than customizing your cubicle name plate holders.
