Create a sign your customers won't forget.
Looking for ways to get your storefront noticed? Think dimensional without the wires. Non-illuminated signs—from flat-cut letters and routed panels to etched plaques and stand-off acrylic—cut through daytime traffic in shopping centers, campuses, and office corridors. Choose your style and material with finishes from matte or gloss paint to brushed or polished metal for crisp readability and a polished, brand-true look.
Built for business, inside and out. Ideal for retail, restaurants, medical and professional offices, gyms, and multi-tenant buildings—and great for interior feature walls, too. Dial in your font, colors, thickness, and size, then pick the right mounting: stud-mounted for that clean “floating” effect, stand-offs for layered depth, or a backer panel to level uneven substrates and simplify placement.
Easy from mockup to install. Send your logo or let us help refine it—we’ll deliver a fast mockup and 3D rendering, then fabricate with architectural-grade materials and durable finishes. Your sign ships insured with a mounting template and hardware, ready for your facilities team or local installer—no electrician needed. Need help choosing? Our experts will guide you—start to finish.
frequently asked questions
Have questions? We’re here to help
How do I install my sign?
Your sign arrives ready to mount—no wiring required. We include all hardware and a full-size installation template to mark hole locations and letter layout. By default, all 3D non-illuminated, flat-cut, and etched signs are stud-mounted; small flat-cut sets can be tape-mounted on request.
Adhesive/Sealant (bring on site)
What’s included
- Full-size drilling/layout template (stud locations, spacing, baselines)
- Mounting studs/anchors and hardware (stand-offs if specified)
- Printed install guide + short step-by-step videos
- (Optional by request): high-bond tape kit for small flat-cut letters
- Use an adhesive/sealant to set studs and seal penetrations (not included).
- Short-term/serviceable: neutral-cure silicone
- Long-term/harsh exposure: exterior-rated two-part epoxy
Confirm compatibility with your wall substrate and follow cure times.
Who should install?
- Most projects can be handled by a local sign installer, GC, or facilities team using the template. No electrician is required for non-illuminated signs.
Questions during install? Email, text, or call—we’re here to help. Prefer full service? We can coordinate professional installation through vetted partners (nationwide & international).
Note: Local permits/landlord approvals may apply. Your installer will handle drilling, adhesive/sealant application, and final cleanup/patching as needed.
Do I need a permit?
Often yes for exterior, permanent non-illuminated signs (wall, blade, panel, letters), but it’s city-by-city. Most jurisdictions regulate size, projection, height, location, materials, and fastening—and some require approvals in historic/design districts even for small signs. Interior plaques or lobby letters typically don’t need a permit unless they’re visible as exterior signage or trigger fire/life-safety rules.
Best practice: always check with your landlord/property manager and your city’s planning/sign permit office before fabrication. Expect to provide a photo of the façade, scaled drawings (size/placement), materials/mounting details, and a simple site plan. Temporary window vinyls and small door graphics are often exempt, but limits vary—confirm locally.
Will my sign be weather resistant?
Yes. Our non-illuminated signs (3D letters, flat-cut, etched plaques) are built with exterior-rated materials and finishes—aluminum/stainless or outdoor-grade acrylic, UV-stable paints/films, and sealed hardware—so they handle sun, rain, and temperature swings. For outdoor, long-term installs, we recommend stud mounting (mechanical fasteners + adhesive/sealant). Tape-mount is not recommended outdoors long term; it’s best for small indoor pieces or short-term use. With correct install and periodic cleaning, typical outdoor lifespans are multi-year.
How long does it take to receive my sign?
- Quote & mockup: ~24 hours after you send your logo/specs.
- Production: ~10–14 business days after approval (may vary by size/finish and queue).
- Shipping: ~3–4 business days (insured ground; rush options available).
We’ll confirm exact dates at proof approval and share tracking once it ships.
