Top Materials for Outdoor Signs
The best materials for your next outdoor sign include a variety of metals. Aluminum is perhaps the top of these options because it is light weight but also highly durable and will not rust when left out in the elements. Other metals that are commonly used include brass and stainless steel, with the former ideal for more historic looking signs and the latter being great for more modern looking signs. Acrylic is also a top material for signs because it can easily be backlit with different colors and doesn’t yellow from exposure to sunlight.
When it comes to utilizing different surfaces on a building, vinyl is commonly used on the glass surfaces that many buildings have in the front portion of the building. These can be done in multiple colors as well to help them stand out. 3D Plastic lettering looks great on the side of larger buildings and provides depth and shadow naturally, along with being easy to read from a distance.
Choosing The Right Materials for Your Needs
Just because aluminum is at the top of the list for materials used in outdoor signs doesn’t necessarily mean that this is the right choice for your specific need. Starting the conversation of your outdoor sign includes understanding where the sign will be located and what information you need on the sign. We can provide you with samples of signs that we have done using all of these different materials as well as others, and many times it will become an easy choice of which material to use for your project.
