Exterior Building Signs for Arlington, TX
The building’s paint is ochre with light brown accents. We added dimensional letters that display the blue of the company’s name and the white of the niche explanation. The famous logo is part of the letter “O” and displays the red of the flames. The company’s management team elected to stick with thin lettering, which does not create any shadow play on the façade. Since the office is open to customers during business hours, there is no need for illumination. (Of course, there is always someone available for emergency repair service calls.)
Exterior Signage Options
Dimensional letters are ideal for all types of wall surfaces. They are lightweight and come in acrylic, PVC, foam or aluminum. Completely paintable, it is easy to display your company’s colors with this budget-friendly signage option. For graduated color displays, we recommend the use of vinyl overlays that we digitally imprint with the color scheme.
Another option is the use of channel lettering. Whether lit or unlit, this product stands out from your façade. We mount the product directly to the wall or rely on a raceway to install it away from the surface. The latter is of particular importance if you commission the backlit option that calls for the light to escape through the rear of the letters.
The box cabinet is another signage solution that many manufacturing firms, contractors and automotive businesses favor. Available in geometric shapes or in the shape of your logo, this kind of sign displays your name, symbol and any other information that you would like to see displayed on your building. For example, some of our business clients like to highlight professional affiliations and memberships.
Enhancing a Facade’s Marketing Message with Electronic Message Boards
One of the latest signage enhancements that now take Arlington business facades by storm is the electronic message board. It looks a lot like a lightbox cabinet with the company’s name and logo clearly on display. Right underneath, you have room for a message you can change as needed. Some companies offer specials, encourage community involvement in fundraisers or advertise closeouts. This is an excellent method for actively participating in seasonal sales and similar retail or service marketing opportunities.
