POPULAR Metal Sign PRODUCTS
Dimensional Letters
Dimensional letters give storefronts and lobbies three dimensional presence that reads clearly from distance and up close, and we fabricate them from aluminum, stainless steel, or acrylic faced metal depending on your budget and exposure. We CNC route or laser cut each letter then finish edges and faces with powder coat, anodize, or brushed metal so the letters stay crisp under salt air or industrial cleaning cycles. For illuminated signage we recess LEDs behind returns and use acrylic pans to control halo or face lighting without hot spots that distract from your brand. We specify mounting methods such as stud and epoxy, French cleats, or hidden rail systems based on substrate and access, so each installation is secure and serviceable.
Monument Signs
Monument signs anchor a property and must withstand freeze, thaw, and vehicle impact while remaining readable from approaching lanes, and we design bases with reinforced footings and frost depth calculations for reliable longevity. Our monument faces can be fabricated from thick aluminum, corten steel, or powder coated structural steel paired with routed metal lettering and sealed LED illumination for low maintenance night visibility. We integrate drainage, tamper resistant fasteners, and service access chambers so lighting and electronics remain accessible without removing the entire face. For campus projects we provide site mockups and photometric plans, ensuring the monument reads correctly from the approach angles drivers actually use.
Aluminum Panel Signs
Aluminum panel signs offer economical durability for wayfinding, building IDs, or directional needs, and we use .080 to .125 gauge aluminum with routed edges and protective overlaminate for long term color retention. We can incorporate high intensity reflective sheeting for parking and traffic control panels, or use direct digital UV printing with overlaminates for crisp logos and photographic finishes that survive pressure washing. Panel mounting options include through bolt with backing plates, stand offs, or welded frames depending on wind load calculations and façade conditions. We advise clients on thickness, finishes, and edge treatments so panels remain flat, legible, and easy to maintain under real world conditions.
Plaques
Plaques carry recognition, dedication, and permanence, and our metal plaque work ranges from cast bronze to laser engraved aluminum with anodized fills for long lasting contrast and tactile quality. For exterior plaques we specify marine grade bronze or stainless hardware and a sealed finish to prevent verdigris or staining on building faces. For interior donor walls we offer panel mounting systems that allow individual plaques to be removed for maintenance while preserving the overall installation aesthetic. We also provide engraving proofs and scale samples so stakeholders approve tactile and visual contrast before fabrication begins.
Parking Lot Signs
Parking lot signs must combine regulatory compliance, night visibility, and vandal resistance, so we fabricate these signs from welded aluminum with reflective sheeting and tamper proof mountings. We advise on sign legend sizes that meet sight distance requirements for typical driving speeds in commercial lots, and we recommend breakaway or reinforced posts where impact risk is high. For lots that require changeable messaging we integrate slide-in panels or modular headers, so updates occur without full sign replacement. Our parking solutions are specified to reduce liability, direct traffic efficiently, and survive frequent washings and snow removal operations.
