First impressions matter when it comes to your business. So, if you want to give a brilliant first impression, Dimensional Letter Signs will do the trick. This post discusses what they are and the ways in which they can elevate your business.

What is a Dimensional Letter Sign?

Dimensional Letter Signs are an extremely popular choice of signage. One of the things that make them so appealing is that you perceive them as solid instead of flat. Their innovative design makes the letters seem to float in the air. This illusion gives them their distinctive 3D effect.

The letters in Dimensional Signs are fabricated from materials such as acrylic, metal or plastic, which are mounted individually to the wall or a frame. These 3-D signs work well for both the exterior or interior of a building and they can come in lighted or unlighted options.

Dimensional Sign Letters Help You Stand Out

Flat signs do the job in some circumstances. However, in downtown areas and shopping plazas, drivers and pedestrians are constantly inundated with run-of-the-mill signs.

The key to beating out the competition is to grab the attention of your patrons immediately. Rest assured that the polished appearance of these special signs distinguishes your business from the rest.

Dimensional Letter Signs Advertise and Promote

Often, customers only visually engage with signs for a few moments. That gives them time enough to decide if they want to come in or pass your business by.

Also, an attention-getting message is critical. Meanwhile, the ones conveyed by Dimensional Lettering are one of the best (and not to mention the easiest) ways to advertise and promote your business.

Choose Metal for an Extremely Durable Option

Dimensional Letter Signs made of metal are extremely durable and long-lasting.  In short, they will stand up to all types of weather conditions.

Channel Letter Signs are a very popular advertising tool. Their distinctive bold designs stand out and make customers aware of your business and brand.  Also, some of the biggest national brands around the world use channel letters to advertise and promote their products and services.

What are Channel Letter Signs?

Gorgeous channel lettering defines this type of sign. Sign companies make channel lettering by cutting letters out of aluminum or by forming them from plastic. Once they cut them, they mount the letters on a backplate. When designed properly, channel letter signs look beautiful and can turn your business into a landmark. They are used for the interior or exterior of commercial or public buildings.

Main Types of Channel Letter Signage

Typically, signage with channel lettering comes in varying configurations. However, the following three designs are the most popular:

• • Open and closed face.
  • Halo-lit, front-lit and reverse-lit.
  • Self-standing style or plate mounted.

These three basic configuration types of interior and exterior signs lead to several, versatile shapes and sizes. Custom Channel Letter Signs have the ability to turn your business into a landmark.

3 Benefits of Channel Letter Signs

• Visibility – Channel letters appear bigger than two-dimensional signs since they have more physical depth – a 3D effect if you will. That makes them highly visible to passers-by.
• Uniqueness – These signs are highly customizable, thereby making them reflect your brand voice superbly. For instance, the use of distinctive color matching schemes makes your company’s font and logo appear professional and unique.
• Luminosity – Luminosity can certainly leave a memorable impression on passersby and elevate your business. To make channel lettering shine brilliantly, we can customize and add additional allure to numbers and letters. We can also use a balanced mix of color-changing neon, LEDs, or shiny new letter colors.

Although it looks simple enough, there are many factors that go into making commercial signage a reality. Not just anyone can do it, and you need a team of experts if you want eye-catching designs delivered. In this post, we are going to share some of our expertise with you and discuss what goes into custom sign service and installation.

The Right Equipment

Staged poles usually range around  20 – 80 feet tall and are sometimes even higher. The equipment used for this type of custom sign service has to reach high enough and get into difficult spaces. In many cases, the special equipment has to lift people to the installation point. When it lifts the installers, it has to be strong and safe enough to hold them securely.

The Right Tools

Storefront Signs are often attached to buildings at great heights. Not only do installers need the right equipment and tools to make these signs, but they also need the right tools to secure the sign and ensure it doesn’t fall down.

The Right Materials

Commercial signs, especially if they are outside your brick & mortar organization, have to be durable and long-lasting. Because of that, a sign company needs to know its way around materials. The facade may need fastenings and stabilizers, so the sign company you choose needs to know the right ones to use.

The Right Skillset

Not only do you need the right equipment & tools, but you also need trained technicians with the right skillset through every step of the process. They need to be knowledgeable about everything they do and experienced in the nuances and challenges that come with custom sign installation.

Installing signs isn’t an easy skill to be taken lightly. The installers at Dave’s Signs do high-quality work, have decades of experience and know-how to secure your sign the best and safest way possible. That way it stays put and looks it’s absolute best for a long time.

The Right Knowledge

Besides having skillful technicians, the staff at a sign company need to have the right expertise, especially when it comes to adhering to the local city ordinances. Municipalities have restrictions on the size of signage you can install, how it looks, where or how it can be placed, etc. We’ll take care of this for you by working with the city permitting process, getting approvals, so your signage adheres to the rules and looks good – hassle-free.

Companies have been turning to traditional neon signs for decades to broadcast their presence to customers, welcome them to town and showcase the uniqueness of their brand. However, before investing in traditional neon, why not consider the flexibility and benefits of LED illumination bring to the table instead? What follows are 10 benefits LED Lighted Signs can bring to your business.

#1: Greater Signage Options

Unlike neon, which only displays solid colors, LEDs can display color changes, animation, fading & flashing features, and moving text. This allows for maximum versatility while on display.

#2: Longevity

LEDs can run for 50,000-100,000 hours, meaning signs made using them will outlast other lighting methods., essentially never burning out.

#3: Time savings

LEDs require fewer replacements and less maintenance, which saves time and money, thereby allowing you to focus attention on the areas of your business that could use your attention.

#4:  Led Lighted Signs Stay Brighter Longer

Unlike filament bulbs, LEDs don’t leak gas as time passes, which is the primary cause of dimming.

#5: Extremely Low Maintenance

LED Sign Tubes bypass the ballast which, in turn, reduces long-term maintenance. Also, LEDs don’t contain any hazardous gases or glass tubes, which can leak or break and cause detailed cleanups (even hazmat ones).

#6: Vibrant Brightness

LED signage’s round-the-clock vibrant brightness & visibility will help you meet your marketing goals by garnering more impressions, leads, and conversions.

# 7: Contemporary Appeal

LED signs speak volumes to millennials and other tech-savvy people who have more modern tastes and are more accustomed to reading digital media. If your business is targeting these types of demographics, LED signage goes a long way.

#8: Environmentally Friendly 

LED lights contain no toxic gases like argon or mercury, and they are 100 percent recyclable. Moreover, many customers respect brands that are eco-conscious and often buy from them before others that aren’t.

#9: Utility Savings

Fortunately, LED lights run cool when compared to CFL bulbs and neon.  Because of that your indoor display won’t affect your thermostat and overclock the air conditioner.

#10: Thinner & Lightweight

LED signs do not have glass tubes as neon signs do, therefore they offer a thinner size. Because of this, you can feature signs that are bold and bright but are still nearly effortless to lift on & off their display mounts.

Increase Your Business with LED Lighted Signs

If you want a sign to help you stand out and get noticed, while saving you energy and maintenance at the same time, there’s nothing better than LED signage. Dave’s Signs offers custom illuminated signs for your building’s interior and exterior applications that will help grow your business 24/7.
