Roadway Displays has built the Quick-Change Frame System in Temecula, California since 1987: an aluminum frame riveted to the truck body once, holding a printed panel your crew changes at the yard in under 30 seconds. When the message changes, only the panel changes. Deciding between a frame and a wrap? See frames vs. wraps for city fleets.
One Permanent Frame. Unlimited Campaign Changes.
The frame stays mounted to the vehicle. Only the printed panel changes.
Permanent hardware
Anodized-Aluminum Frame
Mounted once and engineered for long-term service on working fleet vehicles.
- Spring-loaded edges open on all four sides
- Multiple sizes for different vehicle bodies
- Rivet or bolt mounting based on fitment
- Vehicle-specific fitment reviewed before quoting
Replaceable graphic
Interchangeable Printed Panel
A durable outdoor panel that can be replaced whenever the department's message changes.
- Changed by authorized customer personnel
- Typical outdoor life of approximately 5–7 years, depending on conditions
- Reordered without remeasuring an existing Roadway frame
- Suitable for recurring, seasonal, and program-specific campaigns
The frame is permanent. The message is replaceable.
Change the Message Between Routes.
Once the replacement panel is at the yard, an authorized crew member can change the display in under approximately 30 seconds.
