Looking for new signs for your restaurant in Carmichael, CA? Give us a call, FASTSIGNS® of Sacramento - Arden-Arcade, CA provides signs of all types for restaurants and bars in Carmichael. We have extensive experience working with restaurants, bars, and cafés from their initial grand openings to their 10-year anniversaries. We design, build, and install custom signs for all types of restaurants, including three of the more common products: A-frame signs, cabinet signs, and channel letter signs.
3 Types of Restaurant Signs
A-frame signs are two panels connected at the top with a hinge that stands up on its own in the shape of the letter A, or perhaps more accurately, an upside-down letter V. They fold flat for easy storage and only weigh a few pounds. They are typically placed outside of your establishment and in busy areas to grab the attention of potential customers. They also cost less than many other sign products making them affordable and extremely powerful when used in combination with other A-frame signs to blanket a large area.
Cabinet signs are constructed of a metal casing with a glass door. They often include a lock that opens with a key for security. Restaurants display their menus, advertise specials, promote Happy Hour specials and post other helpful information such as business hours.
Channel letter signs are constructed from individual metal letters, typically illuminated, either from the inside or externally. Front-lit and back-lit, or halo-lit, are the most common types of lighting options for channel letters.
Menu boards display the food and drink options at bars and restaurants, as well as daily specials. Added custom graphics help entice customers to purchase mouth-watering items. They are typically hung on the wall behind the ordering counter, near the restaurant’s entrance, in the drive through lane, or at the ordering window. Establishments with walk-up and counter-style ordering most often use menu boards since they most commonly do not have a waiter who brings you a menu and takes your order. However, a bar is one example of an establishment that may have menu boards and a waiter who takes your order. This is one way to reduce costs associated with frequent menu updates.
Window Graphics are made with high-quality vinyl affixed to windows with adhesive or cling to windows with static electricity. Custom decals with impressive designs and easy-to-read messages add powerful calls to action on the windows and doors of restaurants to drive more customers to your establishment. Because they block the sun and portions of the window surface, they add privacy and heat control to your dining areas near windows.
Benefits of Professionally Crafted Restaurant Signs
First and foremost, signs help you attract new customers. A well-designed sign is one the most effective marketing tools a business owner has in their arsenal. Expertly designed signs placed on busy streets and in high foot traffic areas generate enormous exposure for many different types of businesses.
Another benefit is longevity. Outdoor signs often withstand the elements for years and pay for themselves many times over.
Finally, a cohesive sign package creates a consistent brand image throughout your restaurant and across your company vehicles.
A Few Take Aways
Your signs should reflect the style and tone of your business. They should be eye-catching and memorable. A consistent sign package will help you build trust with potential customers, help people notice your restaurant, and motivate them to try your food and beverages.
