What do you need to know about Metal Signs?
A Metal Sign communicates to the viewer that your company has culture of professionalism: your products are formidable in the marketplace, and your reps are trained to a fault. In short, a Metal Sign means you’re not messing around.
Available Materials for Metal Signs
Aluminum is a solid metal sign material with a baked on enamel finish. Aluminum Signs are extremely durable in high traffic, wet and heavy equipment areas. Our Aluminum Signs are available in a range of thickness grades: lightest .020″ gauge, light .032″ gauge, standard .040″ gauge, medium duty.063″ gauge, heavy duty .080″ gauge, heaviest .125″ gauge, and even 1.00″ gauge material.
Alumalite is a corrugated plastic sign material that is reinforced on both sides with rigid aluminum sign panels. Alumalite is a little easier to handle and install than the thicker, heavier ARMOUR-Wood signs. It does not have quite as much panel strength as ARMOUR-Wood, but is still a highly durable product.
Alumalite is an extremely light but reliable material to add to the facade of your building. It has a corrugated plastic core with two aluminum panels that allow for almost any sign design or color. For lightweight outdoor signage that can be easily mounted on wall areas, Alumalite is a great choice.
Dura-Wood has a timeless reputation for looking great on outdoor surfaces and it’s very popular. These wall signs from TheSignChef are open to any design or artwork, able to tolerate some of weather’s most brutal extremes, and come rot-safe for outdoor use. Easy to mount and always trustworthy, Dura-Wood is always good.
Armour-Wood combines the sturdiness of wood with the design flexibility of aluminum to make signage look good. This sign material is one of the best choices for large outdoor signage for walls. Armour-Wood is constructed of a rigid wood core and outer aluminum panels and is one of the strongest outdoor sign materials available.

Available Materials for Outdoor Wall Signs
Hanging Signs
Hanging Signs are a stylish, but subtle way to invite customers to your business. A large roadside sign can sometimes seem desperate for a customer’s attention, in which case the customer may just pass you by. If everyone around you is trying to have the largest sign, adding one more larger-than-life sign to the skyline won’t draw in the customer. Pique the customer’s curiosity with a small, chic projection from one of your outdoor surfaces.
Replacement Sign Faces
The Replacement Sign Face is the classic, can’t-miss-it, announcement to passing drivers that your business is open and ready for their business, and lots of it. These sign cabinets are easily lit from the inside, and can be sized to suit any logo or design. While other lower profile entrance signs sacrifice visibility for conservatism, the Replacement Sign Face puts visibility first.
3D Letters
3D Letters transform what would have been an unimaginative, flat banner into a sculpted statement of your brand’s identity. The best part? All you need to provide is your company’s name. 3D Letters communicate to the customer that you take your time with every aspect of your business, signage included. The letters become a part of the building they are attached to, and like your business, they aren’t going anywhere. Secure your customer’s confidence with 3D signage.

Vinyl Banners
Vinyl Banners are the ideal, temporary signage. When you need a sign to go up on your building’s exterior one day for a sale, and come down the next day, no other sign fits the bill. Coroplast yard signs are a close second, but they lack the visibility of a large banner on the side of your building. Stored correctly, a vinyl banner will also last for years, so everytime you have that huge annual sale, you can use the same sign. Repeated use of the same message and logo can increase your event’s recognizability among customers.
Reflective Signs
Reflective Signs can highlight your business at midnight as well as other signs can at midday without the extra cost of adding lighting to a replacement sign face. Take your pick of aluminum or dibond and we will customize a sign with your logo and name. The moment your customers drive past your building, they’ll see your brand on the wall flashing back at them like a beacon, inviting them to check out your latest goods. Choose a reflective wall sign to attract customers no matter what time it is.
