WRAP YOUR GENERATOR

Designed for the generator you actually own.

WYG creates printed vinyl graphics for residential and commercial generator enclosures. A project begins with the generator brand, model, enclosure, photographs, and desired coverage.

Concepts and previews help define the direction. Final fit, artwork placement, materials, and installation details are reviewed for the specific generator before production.

Buying advice

A few well-chosen photos can make a wrap discussion much more specific. One attractive angle rarely shows everything needed to plan the design. Aim for a small, organized set that answers four questions: which unit is this, which faces matter, what condition are they in, and how can the installer reach them?

Begin with the generator and its surroundings

Take one wide photograph that includes the complete enclosure and nearby walls, landscaping or fencing. Keep the camera level where practical. This view explains the setting and the main viewing angle, while separate closer photographs can describe the panels.

Work from accessible positions without moving equipment or reaching into restricted spaces. Standby generators can start automatically. If getting a model label or a particular view requires opening or removing a panel, ask the generator service provider to help according to the exact unit’s instructions.

Give every requested face its own photo

Photograph the front and both ends as straight-on as the available space allows. Include the rear or top only when accessible safely. Keep the full panel edges in the frame instead of cropping tightly around the blank area where you imagine the graphic.

Add one angled overview to connect the separate views. Describe faces consistently, such as “front facing the driveway” and “end facing the house.” If one face cannot be photographed, say so; an identified gap is more useful than an assumption that every side looks the same.

Include the details that could change the scope

  • The full model number, taken from existing paperwork or an accessible label.
  • Close-ups of any peeling paint, rust, dents, old graphics or replaced panels.
  • An overall photo showing where each close-up belongs.
  • Notes about tight access, gates or other site arrangements.

Use clear daylight when possible and check that small details are in focus. Keep the original images rather than sending only a collage or heavily compressed screenshot. If dimensions are available, label the panel and measurement units; do not estimate exact panel sizes from the photo alone.

Send a brief that matches the photographs

Name the files by unit and view, such as “Home-front” or “Unit-02-right-end.” Include the design name or reference, the faces you want reviewed, the project location and whether you are asking about graphics only or installation as well. Photos support the initial review; they do not replace any measurements or inspection required for final fit.

Plan Your Project sends the request details to WYG for review. Keep the original photo folder together so it is ready to share during the project follow-up.
