Clocks are ornament for a building as they enhance the appearance of the architecture with their center jewel presence. Clocks are great exterior design elements though their primary duty is to tell time to people nearby with precision and accuracy. Custom architectural clocks are in vogue because they allow modifications to a clock makeup and enable owners to integrate their theme elements.  Architectural clocks being large in size automatically qualify as an advertising banner for the owners and their business. Whether it is a corporate building or a K-12 school, these clocks are able to muster enough publicity to keep their name afresh in the mind of people.

Architectural clocks also derive their name from the fact that they are integrated into the construction of a building. Clock faces are imposed on walls while the mechanism could remain on the other side of the wall or install prefabricated clocks on the wall face. A building clock can be occupying the whole face of a building wall or placed on top as a jewel in the crown. Either way the clock will be generating tremendous publicity for the establishments,

You can buy two types of architectural clocks and they are electric powered or solar powered or both. Integration of solar energy option provides self sufficiency in power thus eliminate the need of installing extra cables for supplying mains power to the clock. But it is advised to have both elements integrated in to the clocks as you will need the clock to shine during nights and show time to the public by illumination. This may not be possible with just solar power option as it will only work during day time.
