Something Different
The Managing Director of our company started art school at the age of 11, then went to engineering college and finally art college. Because of his rather unusual education, Classic Signs produces several types of signs that are created and manufactured only by us.
There are companies that cast and mold HDU (high-density urethanes) and others that do the same using solid polyester or urethanes, however, we believe we are the only custom sign company using all three on a daily basis, in the USA.
That fact gives us capabilities that many other sign companies lack.
From 10 ft tall toothbrushes to hurricane-resistant beach signs for a Florida City or a sign that emulated the building it sits in front of.
Edge-lit signs are a really attractive way of making a subtle and tasteful statement that gives information but is easy on the eyes.
This picture of this large edgelit sign was taken after installation in a local medical office. They wanted to make a big statement but did not want it to form a physical barrier blocking part of the waiting room, so we suggested that they try an edge-lit sign, and explained to them that the light comes in from the sides and the top and is refracted by the sandblasted text, but the physical size of the sign left a lot of clear space, so it did not enclose any part of the waiting room but there is not a single person that enters that reception and doesn't see that sign.
Most edge-lit signs are no bigger than 36 ins. in one dimension because light doesn't like to travel too far inside glass or acrylic. However, as you can clearly see here, we can make it work in a five-foot by seven-foot piece. It gets a lot of attention and looks very .... well, what can I say? it works! The frames can be designed to fit any decor, traditional or contemporary. This one has both.
We once produced over 160-dimensional signs, many consisting of complex routed and carved pieces on sandblasted backgrounds; from the first telephone contact to delivery in Miami, the project was completed in under 3 weeks.
We are ready and able to start on your project; call us or use one of our contact forms and set us to work for you.
