This month, Reliant Bank announced its acquisition of First Advantage Bank. With this new merger, six First Advantage Bank branches needed a refreshed, renovated look with Reliant Bank's branding. This is where we came in- the experiential graphics experts!

We have worked with Reliant Bank on multiple rebranding and custom signage projects. Let’s check out the new, renovated look of the interior and exterior graphics that solidified a new beginning for these branches!

The colors of this dimensional logo stand out beautifully against the stone wall. An eye catcher for sure!

Acrylic Logos

After removing First Advantage interior and exterior graphics from the eight branch locations (six plus the two that are closing), our installation team installed new dimensional Reliant Bank logos at two of the locations. These logos were painted with acrylic and placed on the wall near the coffee station, in a lobby waiting area, and behind the tellers on the beautiful, stone wall in one of the banks’ lobbies.

This hanging sign, which we also installed at one branch's coffee station, gives customers reassurance in Reliant’s mission to always be there. 

We also supplied Reliant Bank with new logo rugs for the branch entrances- an added touch of “welcoming” to enhance the company’s  customer service experience.

Directional Signage/ Window Graphics

Of course, with any renovations, there are wayfinding changes that need to be made in order to keep customers updated. We installed new directional signage in the parking garage at one branch in order to direct customers to the entrance. 

Easy wayfinding is essential to have to help customers navigate through your facility, especially a garage! 

Our installation team then proceeded to apply new window graphics (custom cut with our vinyl plotter) on the front doors and the drive-thru windows. The graphics provided customers with new branch hours and Reliant’s logo with the words “Welcome friends” underneath. 

The “Welcome friends” statement is our favorite part! 

We Can’t Forget About the ATMs!

For the exterior ATMs, we used our vinyl plotter to fabricate Reliant’s branding graphics to be applied above the ATM screens and on its bottom base, which sat in between two lime green vinyl stripes. Instead of painting the ATM bases, we wrapped them in a high performance charcoal gray vinyl to be consistent with the brand's color scheme.  

The vibrant lime green really stands out! Hopefully, people can avoid hitting the poles. 

Our production team used the same fabrication process for the interior ATM branding graphics at one branch as we had done for the exterior ATMs. However, in this case for the interior ATM, we also wrapped a wall graphic on the wall that surrounded it and its companion night deposit box. Check out the before & after comparison!

Other Custom Signage

Along with the other experiential branding within the new branches, we also fabricated and installed new compliance boards that were installed in the lobby of each branches. Our laser, flatbed cutter, and our HP L570 printer were used to create the various parts of the panel assemblies.

Each compliance panel assembly consisted of printed graphics, laser-cut acrylic and a composite panel material with a brushed aluminum finish

For the two branches that were temporarily branded prior to closure, we fabricated and installed some temporary cover-up banners to conceal the previous First Advantage building wall signs. 

Did you know that this merge solidifies Reliant Bank as the 4th largest community bank by asset size headquartered in the Nashville MSA?

We are fortunate to have a continued partnership with Reliant Bank and with many bank institutions who support and love the work we accomplish for them. For each project we complete, we see the positive impact of well-designed and properly installed facility branding that boosts those first impressions and give customers a long-lasting experience.
