Getting Started with Custom Signage
- Shape
Signs do not have to always be square. You can have round signs, octagonal signs, or even signs in a custom shape – like a hamburger. Channel letters can have customized fonts, and neon signs can be shaped to display almost anything you hope to share.
- Color(s)
Signs themselves can be in all different colors. Aluminum signs can be brushed or painted to appear in any color that suits your fancy. Vinyl signs can have almost any pantone color, as can plastic signs. Most signs can also be detail rich, making it possible to print faces, photos, and other details on signs that make them distinctly yours.
- Material
Looking for an outdoor sign or an indoor sign? Do you want your sign to be weather resistant or is it only going to be indoors? How long do you want your sign to last? Sign materials can be almost entirely customized to meet your needs, and while there may be some limitations (for example, not all materials are weather safe), you can at least have your choice of materials from which to choose from.
- Portable/Reusable
Use of the sign matters. That’s why it’s possible to make different signs depending on whether they are planning to be re-used, or if they are only going to be used once. For example, retractable banner stands are a great way to add bright color and style to a trade show, but a heavy metal sign may be more useful if the sign is unlikely to be removed.
