POPULAR Hanging SIGN PRODUCTS

Blade Signs

Blade signs project outward, positioning your name or logo in direct view of people passing by. They’re often two-sided, so both directions get the message. Materials range from metal and wood to acrylic. Some businesses choose a vintage bracket for a timeless look, while others go modern with sleek edges. Thanks to their perpendicular placement, blade signs excel in areas where front-facing signage gets lost. If you’re tucked between two larger shops, a boldly designed blade sign can be your visual handshake to anyone walking by.

Banners

Banners deliver a prominent statement with minimal fuss. Whether they’re hung across a storefront or between fixed posts, they shout your news loud and proud. Vinyl remains a go-to material—thick, weather-resistant, and ideal for full-color graphics. Grommets at the corners make installation simple, and if you need a splash of personality, you can go for a custom shape or bold lettering. Banners work great for announcing special events or seasonal sales. When your promotion ends, just roll it up and store for next time.

Flag Signs

Looking for something that moves with the air and catches curious eyes? Flag signs are the ticket. Their flutter attracts attention from people strolling by, and the bright colors often seen on flags add playful energy. Mount them on a pole fixed to your exterior, or position them curbside if you have the space. Choose fabrics that resist fading, so your design stays vibrant. Because the motion itself can be intriguing, flag signs work well for businesses that rely on quick decisions—like cafés hoping to draw in the lunchtime crowd.

Awnings

Awnings do double duty: they display your name and protect customers from drizzles or harsh sun. They’re especially handy on days when people appreciate a brief respite before stepping inside. Materials vary from sturdy canvas to aluminum frames with printed graphics. Because they’re directly over the entrance, awnings catch the eye of anyone scanning storefronts along the block. A custom color or pattern can reinforce your brand, and it adds a touch of style even when your doors are shut.

Ceiling Signs

Sometimes you need indoor direction instead of outdoor flair. Ceiling signs hang in large lobbies, showrooms, or retail floors, pointing visitors to departments, registers, or specific promotions. Suspended from cables or rods, these signs keep walls free for other decor while still offering clear guidance. High-contrast text or arrows work best if you want people to spot them from afar. They’re also handy for open-concept offices, giving guests a quick visual cue on where to head next.
