subject: Monument Signs, A Monumental Advertising Tool [print this page] Monument signs are a common architectural add-on for many large to medium sized businesses. What many business owners don't realize is it is one of the best long term investments that a company can make. Monuments can come in all shapes and sizes, some are as elaborate as the gateway to a fantasy-land park, and others are simple brick walls with the company name embossed on it.
The process for creating a monument sign starts with us listening to you. We will find out what kind of business you are, what you sell and what kind of image best suits you. The process of building a monument sign really depends on these factors as well as other concerns such as building architecture, space allocated for the sign and any limitations set by the city.
We use a variety of manufacturers to bring you exactly the look you are going for. One of our favorites, Peachtree City Foamcraft, is a national distributor and allows us to design a wide array of monument signs. They offer thousands of faux brick and stone accents which are hand sculpted rather than digitally printed so the effect won't crack or peel. These signs, although carved out of "foam" are sprayed with a Poly-Armor hard coat to provide a superior product that withstands the harsh Colorado elements. These signs are lightweight, easy to install and cost effective when compared to similar stone or wood sign products. The lettering is either raised or recessed into the sign itself so there's never a chance of the lettering coming off the face of your sign. Finishes include not only the stone or brick look but also stucco or smooth. There are
Our monument signs can be combined with other sign products to make an even bigger impact! Imagine a monument sign coupled with a changeable letter display for meeting or sermon times so you get the best of both worlds, that is a sign that is beautiful as well as informative. Even more amazing is that you can combine these signs with an LED system for a truly impressive display piece. LED displays are up and coming in the industry (have you been up and down Colorado Blvd. lately?), they feature readable, changeable messages night or day.
While we've described some of the products available we really have not discussed the benefits of purchasing these types of signs. When a company has a fantastic monument sign it says to any prospective client or passerby that this is a legitimate, professional business with enough expertise and knowledge to accomplish the job or provide the service. These serve as great landmarks for people trying to find the locale. When a large institution is set back from the road half a mile or more the monument serves to direct traffic into the facility.
Your sign will only be remembered if it's memorable. Monument signs are a great way to inform, direct, inspire and drive business to your door. You can visit us today at the Visual Edge Signs and Design to make a sign that is beautiful and reflects your passion and service to the community.
