Ordering custom outdoor business signs is one of the best ways to get your business to stand out. However, agreeing on custom signs with the business preparing your signage requires some preparation. You will have to make a lot of decisions about what you want, which can be overwhelming for people who don’t know much about signs.
One of those decisions includes which types of signs you want. Here is a quick guide to the most common types of signs.
Channel Letter Signs
Channel letter signs are three-dimensional lettered signs where each letter is an individual element. They are usually used to spell out the name of your business. Since each letter is lit individually, the name of your business will stand out, but this signage may seem too big for smaller facades.
Blade Signs
Blade signs are signs that stick out from the side of your building (think of them like the old-fashioned shop signs you may see in a colonial village or old Western). They are great for well-trafficked pedestrian areas, but hard to see from the road.
Monument Signs
Monument signs are free-standing signs that are usually about eye-level in height. Like all types of custom outdoor business signs, they have their advantages and disadvantages. They are easily visible from the road, but may not be allowed if your business is on a sidewalk or pedestrian area.
These are just some of the types of custom outdoor business signs that you can choose from when ordering signage.
