Signage That Stands Out: The Top Options for Multi-Site Programs

When it comes to promoting your business, signage is a critical component. Your signage should effectively communicate your brand message and help attract customers. With so many options available, it can be challenging to determine which type of signage will best suit your needs. In this blog post, we'll cover some of the most popular signage options to help you make an informed decision.

Channel Letters


Channel letters are a type of illuminated signage that is perfect for businesses that want to make a statement. These letters are three-dimensional, and the lighting can be either front-lit, back-lit, or both. They're often used for storefronts and businesses that operate after dark.


Halo Illumination


Halo illumination is a type of backlighting that creates a halo effect around the letters or logo.

This effect is achieved by placing the light source behind the letters or logo and pointing it toward the wall. This type of signage is perfect for businesses that want a subtle, yet eye-catching effect.


Push Through Cabinets


Push through cabinets are a type of illuminated signage that's similar to channel letters. The main difference is that push through cabinets have an acrylic face that is pushed through the metal cabinet, creating a three-dimensional effect. The lighting can be either front-lit, back-lit, or both.


Blade Signs


Blade signs are a type of projecting sign that's mounted perpendicular to the building's façade. They're often used in urban areas or places where foot traffic is high. Blade signs can be illuminated or non-illuminated and can be customized to fit your brand.


Neon


Neon signage has been around for over a century and is still popular today. This type of signage is made of glass tubes filled with gas and can be molded into almost any shape. Neon signs are perfect for businesses that want a vintage or retro vibe.


Faux Neon


Faux neon, also known as LED neon, is a modern take on traditional neon signage. Instead of glass tubes filled with gas, faux neon signs use LED lights to create the same effect. Faux neon signs are more durable than traditional neon signs and can be customized to fit your brand.


Awnings


Awnings are a type of signage that is perfect for businesses that want to provide shade or protection from the elements. They can be customized with your brand message and can be illuminated or non-illuminated. Awnings are often used in storefronts, restaurants, and cafes.


Large Digital Graphics


Large digital graphics are a type of signage that uses digital printing to create large-scale graphics that can be applied to almost any surface. They're perfect for businesses that want to create a unique and eye-catching display. Large digital graphics can be used both indoors and outdoors and can be customized to fit your brand.


LED Lighting


LED lighting is a popular choice for signage because it's energy-efficient, long-lasting, and customizable. LED lights can be used to illuminate almost any type of signage, from channel letters to awnings to blade signs.


Architectural Signage


Architectural signage is a type of signage that's designed to be a part of the building's architecture. These signs can be made from a variety of materials, including metal, glass, and wood, and can be customized to fit your brand. Architectural signage is perfect for businesses that want to make a statement and stand out from the crowd.


Making an Informed Signage Decision


Choosing the right type of signage for your business can be challenging, but it's essential to make an informed decision. Whether you're looking for a classic neon sign or a modern LED display, there's a signage option that's perfect for your business.
