Floral clocks
Floral clocks make stunning features in parks, seafront promenades and open spaces.
We offer hands and mechanisms that are suitable for planted clock dials up to 5m in diameter. Manufactured to the highest specification for heavy duty outdoor use the mechanisms have stainless steel enclosures with acetal gears (a hard wearing self lubricating moisture resistant material) and stainless steel drive shafts. To help prevent vandalism the mechanism is fitted with torque limiting hand fixings.
The clock face itself can be planted out to entirely fill the space and create the chapters around the dial, alternatively we can manufacture Roman or Arabic numerals that can be positioned around the dial with plants and flowers used to fill in behind.
Time Control
Our TCS controller will automatically adjust the hands for summer and winter time changes and advances to the correct time following any power failures.

Clock Hands
Our floral clock hands are moulded in GRP - 'glass reinforced polyester', a lightweight, durable and astonishingly tough constructional material with a very long life span.
The hands can be finished to any BS or RAL colour.
The hands are fitted with torque limiting fixings to help prevent against damage from potential vandalism.
