| Aluminum Signs
No more rusty or rotten signs!! Light-weight and strong,
aluminum signs are one of the most durable and easy to hang sign materials
available anywhere. When you are looking for a perfectly smooth, baked-on,
high gloss painted finish, aluminum signs project a premium quality image,
will outlast almost any material and is extremely durable to the elements.
One of the most common thicknesses for sign applications is .040" gauge aluminum. This thickness is ideal for standard, 18" x 24" real estate yard signs.
When attaching aluminum signs to buildings, use 040" gauge
aluminum for signs in size up to 2' x 4'. Technically, you can use .040"
gauge aluminum for sizes all the way up to 4' x 10' provided you mount
the metal flat against a wall of a backerboard. The larger the panel size
is, the greater the tendency to bend which can cause a large thin gauge
aluminum sign to have a slightly wavy or rippled appearance when installed
on a building, especially a corrugated metal building.
Therefore, when you want a bigger sign, we recommend increasingly thicker gauges of aluminum with the optimum heavy duty thickness being .080" gauge aluminum. Other thicknesses available include 063" medium duty thickness and .050" lighter duty material. On smaller size signs (up to 2' x 4') even a modest increase to .050" gauge aluminum substantially increases the stiffness and rigidity of the sign panel.
Aluminum .063" thick signs are best for hanging from a post such as 2' x 2' and 2' x 3' and .080" gauge aluminum works best for heavy duty applications such as 3'x 4' hanging signs, 3' x 3' Signs on a post or in a frame and larger signs.

Aluminum signs in .040" gauge are available in a variety
of factory painted color finishes. Thicker gauges are only available in
white. We routinely cover aluminum panels in premium vinyl and reflective
vinyl to change the background color of the sign panel. No runs ... No
Drips ... No Errors. We can also enamel bake a new color background of
any color you want.
Life Span
Aluminum Signs will last as long as the lettering that
is put on them. Using the Avery 4 vinyl will last 2 to 4 years outside
while using the High Performance will last 4 to 6 years. Lifespan
is easily doubled if the sign is kept out of the sun, wind, rain and snow
or tripled with indoor only use.
If you are looking for a less expensive and/or shorter term sign, we suggest looking at:
Corrugated Coroplast Plastic signs
PVC Signs
