What Size Plans Do We Print?

Why Print Plans Online?

Click Post gives you the tools to print and send A0, A1, A2, A3 and A4 plans online. Using our online plan printing upload tool, you can select your paper size, the scale of print, colour or black and white and the number of copies. You have the option to send plans direct to a client, contractor or local authority. The most common paper size for drawings provided by Architects, Engineers and designers are A1. A1 plans are easy to handle, simple to store and provide a great way to communicate design intent with clients and contractors. Detailed A1 plans will often display colour to assist with clarity and identifying key details. If an A1 plan does not provide sufficient space, A0 plans are the next size up. A0 plans get generally used for site plans and low use drawings such as key layout plans. A0 plans are large and not comfortable to handle and therefore tend to be used less for on-site work, and more for in-office review.

For smaller works, A2 plans offer a more modest alternative. A2 plans are smaller in size than both A0 and A1 and are used commonly for presentation, electrical layouts and interior design. Householder planning application drawings often are presented on A3 plans due to the small scale nature of the works. It is, however, common to see both existing and proposed layouts displayed on a single A1 plan. Planning application drawings generally use colour to present design intent clearly and show the contrast between materials.

Architects

Architects regularly to use our service to print and send hard copies of proposals to their clients. With the advent of PDF files, Architects no longer need to print several drawings each week and therefore cannot justify the cost of maintaining a large format printer. Instead, Architects now send paperless copies in seconds to contractors, estimators and local authorities. However, when presenting proposals to a client, hard copy plans remain a favourite.

Estimators

Estimators and Quantity Surveyors use printed plans to measure, take off and make notes as they proceed with preparing bills of quantities. Printed plans make it quick and easy to scale from when preparing a bill of quantities. A1 plans get used regularly for detailed drawings, and now that Architects issue plans mostly in PDF format, it is up to the estimator to select which plans require printing. Online plan printing provides a quick and cost-effective solution for the estimator.

Specialist Contractors

Builders and Contractors require printed plans for quick and easy reference. A well-defined drawing can be pinned on a wall or laid out on the floor. A typical example is an electrical layout. An electrical plan will show a contractor where to position wires, holes, trunking and other services, including fixtures and fittings. Electrical layouts are often colour A1 plans which clearly show design intent. Specialist Contractors are increasingly using our services to send plans directly to the site from head offices.
