Types of Building Signs We Create

We design and produce a wide range of building signs, tailored to your location, brand identity, and visibility goals. From simple letterforms to illuminated signs, we customize every detail to match your colors, fonts, graphics, and logos.

Channel Letters

Channel letters are individually fabricated letters mounted directly to your building facade. They can be front-lit or halo-lit so your name stays visible in the evening and in low light, which can help customers find you more easily.

Dimensional Letters

Dimensional letters add physical depth to your exterior signage and create a clean, architectural look. They are a strong option if you want a premium appearance without internal lighting, and they work well for offices, medical practices, and professional services.

Illuminated Signs

Illuminated signs use energy-efficient LED lighting so your message is easy to read day and night. We help you select the right illuminated sign design for your building, brand goals, and local code requirements, then manage the process through fabrication and installation.

Monument Signs

Monument signs are freestanding, ground-level signs typically placed near a street or main entrance. If your building is set back from the road or located within a larger commercial center or campus, a monument sign can make it easier for visitors to spot your location from passing traffic.

Whether you are a retail store, restaurant, medical office, or corporate campus, we can combine channel letters, dimensional letters, illuminated signs, monument signs, and even wall graphics into a cohesive exterior signage program that supports your overall visual communications strategy.

Our Building Sign Project Process

Every project starts with understanding your goals, location, and brand identity. From there, we move through a structured process that keeps your project organized and on track.

1. Consultation and Site Survey

We begin with a conversation about how you want customers to experience your business from the street or parking lot. When appropriate, we complete a site survey to review your building, measure key areas, and confirm the best placement and size for visibility from primary traffic approaches.

2. Design, Graphic Design, and Content Development

Our graphic design team translates your brand into an effective sign layout, incorporating your logo, colors, fonts, and any required graphics. Through content development, we help refine the words on your sign so the most important information is easy to see and understand.

3. Survey and Permitting Support

Most commercial exterior signage in Canton will be subject to local regulations. Requirements can vary by size, height, illumination type, and property zoning. We provide survey and permitting support to help you prepare the necessary documents and align your building sign with applicable guidelines.

4. Production and Fabrication

Once designs and approvals are in place, we move into production. Our team focuses on material selection and fabrication details so your sign is built to perform in your environment and complement your architecture.

5. Installation and Follow-Up

We coordinate installation so the final sign is mounted securely and positioned as planned. After installation, we remain available to answer questions and discuss future updates, such as rebranding or additional exterior signage for new locations or expansions.

When brands evolve, we can sometimes update existing components instead of starting from scratch, which can help manage project cost while keeping your building signs current.
