Widener University's New Landmark

On a bright August morning, Verdin Installation Technician Rick Morin carefully assembled and hoisted Widener University's new clock into position. An alumni project, it's the centerpiece of a new crosswalk.

First the post was hoisted and bolted securely onto the foundation. Then the head was lifted onto the post. Staff members from the University's Facilities Department were then instructed in the clock's operation and care.


A small crane is needed for just a few hours to install our larger clocks. Our Technicians do all the work.








This clock is our Howard Replica/Seth Thomas four-dial Victorian. A real classic. A traditional dial face of Roman Numerals was appropriate for an academic institution. Two of the headers read, "WIDENER". The opposite headers read, "PRIDE".

Color Coordinated

Take a close look at this recent installation of one of our large Victorian four-dial clocks. The overall color is neither the traditional black nor dark green, but bronze, a match to the building's trim. It's at an apartment house in Philadelphia. An electronic carillon greets passers-by with the hours and familiar tunes. Red clock, blue clock, green clock? Verdin can paint your clock any color. Custom colors are not a problem - just send us a color chip and we'll match it. Make your clock a real landmark.
