Are you looking for a new and creative way to market your business? If you are, corporate office lobby signs drive home your brand message and get noticed by customers. You can check out some of these excellent custom business signs we’ve made over the years in our office signs gallery.

At Dave’s Signs, we create eye-catching and custom lobby signs for Ventura, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, and businesses Nationwide.

Our experts will work with you to build office signs that best represent your brand.

But first, what makes an office sign different than, say, a retail sign or a restaurant sign? Let’s take a look.

What is an Office Lobby Sign?

A typical office consists of a lobby, reception area, and waiting rooms. Additionally, these are all high-traffic opportunities for custom corporate lobby displays. For instance, reception signs like the interior sign below are placed prominently in these areas for maximum impact.

Your lobby sign should reflect the values and professionalism of your company. No matter what size or style you choose, your office lobby sign should be easy to read and send a clear message about your business.

Businesses that use Lobby Signs

Almost any type of business can benefit from custom office lobby signs.

For instance, lawyers, accountants, and other professional service providers use indoor signage to communicate trust and credibility to clients. Customers entering and doing interior office signs reading won’t forget the lovely wooden sign and brand for Derby/Curtis, LLP anytime soon.

Healthcare facilities use this type of signage to direct patients and visitors to where they need to go. Additionally, businesses of all types use them to promote their brand and forge a professional image.

Types of Custom Lobby Signs

There are many different types of office lobby signs to choose from, but sometimes it’s good to stray away from traditional custom lobby signs you see everywhere to convey your unique message. The sign you choose will depend on the look you want to achieve, the message you want to communicate, and your budget.

Typically, lobby signs contain information such as the company name, logo, tagline, and maybe contact details. But these signs are not about that. Lobby Signs display a company’s character, how they showcase themselves and how serious they are about their business.

Colors have a relationship. For example, the one we’ve tempered the ones here for Ispire Ducore’s lobby signage expressly shows this. The white and munsell yellow letters mounted in their waiting room warmly welcome visitors but don’t blend into the brick-accented background.

Our gallery has a wide variety of options, perfect for any store or restaurant.

From stores to office buildings, blade signs have stood the test of time. These classic signs are currently a trending item across the country.

But first, what makes a blade sign a blade sign?

Finney’s Crafthouse Signs by Dave’s Signs 2019

What is a Blade Sign?

Shanghai Beer Garden is a custom illuminated blade sign that uses neon, channel letters, and a lightbox for the dragon logo.

Blade signs traditionally consist of a thin, flat piece of metal, aluminum, or MDO plywood mounted to a building or post. The name “blade” comes from the fact that the sign hangs down or juts out like a blade.

Blade signs are designed to hang vertically or horizontally on a bracket or frame near the business’s entryway. Rugged and robust, they are mounted perpendicular to walls or other surfaces. Some even hang down from the ceiling.

One of the best features of a blade sign is its short setback. Paired with an eye-catching design makes them highly visible.

They come illuminated or non-illuminated but always provide a focal point for passersby to view.

There are many different types of blade signs, but all share some standard features. They are typically skinny and lightweight, making them easy to mount. They also have a sleek, modern design, perfect for businesses of all types.

Blade signage works well in strip malls, downtown businesses, areas with frequent pedestrian traffic, and businesses with sidewalks in front.

Blade Signs are Designed for Attracting Foot Traffic

Honey Cup, a non-illuminated storefront pole is a standard swinging blade sign easily seen from the street.

One of the main benefits of blade signage is that they are easy to see while walking. Pedestrians won’t have to turn their heads and look at a sign that is flat up against the storefront. They can see the sign from a distance as they move forward because it projects outward and is perpendicular to the building.

Blade signs are also perfect for businesses that want to make a statement. With their sleek design and eye-catching colors, blade signs are sure to grab attention.

Why Choose a Blade Sign?

Midici Wood Fired Pizza is surface perpendicular so it can be seen without having to turn your head.

This type of sign for your business is beneficial in many ways. Here are some of the most important:

  • Blade signs are very versatile for just about any business.
  • They are made of high-quality materials and will last for years.
  • Some are easy to install and don’t require special tools or equipment.
  • Their sleek, modern style will give your business a professional look.
  • Simple blade signs can be budget-friendly while still making a statement.
  • Sophisticated illuminated blade signs can be the standout on the entire block.

Businesses That Use Blade Signage

Blade Sign Celadon
Celadon House store sign located in downtown Santa Barbara is designed to attract foot traffic.

We’ve seen an incredible number of requests for blade signs in recent years. Here are a few types of businesses that have found great success with blade signs.

  • Retail Stores: Retail stores benefit from blade signage, especially if they are located in a crowded space. Blade signs for retail are a great way to enhance the storefront while attracting the attention of shoppers walking by.
  • Restaurants: Restaurants are perfect for blade signage because they generate excitement and build anticipation for the experience. A high-quality sign says a lot about the food and can create a sense of fun and intrigue.
  • Shopping Malls: These signs are perfect for businesses located in shopping malls. Compact and double-sided, they are a great way to attract attention from drivers and pedestrians.
  • Office Buildings: Office buildings can also use blade signs to promote their business by simply displaying their name and logo. They help customers know where they are, especially in office buildings that look the same, and it’s hard to differentiate one office suite from another.

Blade sign Ojai

  • Vineyards: Local vineyards and tasting rooms abound in California.  A hanging blade sign like the one we created for Majestic Oak Vineyard in Ojai adds an elegant touch that’s on-brand.

Different Types of Custom Blade Signs

As you can see from the gallery at Dave’s Signs, there are many different types of blade signs that you can choose from. Here are a few of their popular designs and the various ways they are used.

Hanging Blade Signs

Point de Chene is a sandblasted and hand-painted blade sign made out of MDO plywood.

Hanging blade signs, also called swinging signs, are typically double-sided and hang from a mount on the wall or ceiling above the business. They can be designed using custom print graphics, vinyl letters, hand-painted, sandblasted, or even routed. The most common sizes are square, rectangle, and round, but we can make them into any custom shape.

Here are 2 Types of swinging blade signs.

  • Wall Mount: Wall-mounted swinging blade signs are not illuminated. Their custom design displays your company’s name and logo. They usually hang from chains on a bracket mounted on a wall, a pole, or an ornamental frame. These signs are simple, eye-catching, and affordable.
  • Ceiling Mount: Ceiling-mounted swinging blade signs like the one pictured here can be a great way to grab attention in shopping malls and other retail locations where wall space is limited. These hanging signs are right in view, making them easy to see for shoppers walking or driving by.
Carpinteria Eye Care is one of several ceiling mount store signs in this strip mall in Carpinteria, CA.

Stationary Blade Signs

Stationary blade signs are a great way to showcase your business name and logo. They are simple, polished, and professional-looking. Since they are stationary, they can be illuminated with various lighting styles and other sign technologies like channel letters, neon, lightbox illumination, and dimensional letters because they can support the added weight. They can be used indoors or outdoors in your building and come in a variety of sizes.

Illuminated Blade Signs

Finney’s Crafthouse & Kitchen Illuminated Blade Sign uses a lightbox, front-lit channel letters and LED lighting.

Illuminated blade signs are perfect for businesses that want to make a statement 24/7. These signs are brightly lit and can be seen from a distance. Illuminated blade signs are custom-made to fit your brand and lit using channel letters, LED, neon, and or illuminated lightboxes.

Custom Illuminated Blade Signs

Typically most of our custom illuminated blade signs have a combination of lighting technologies in one sign. Since each lighting style brings its own look and feel, sometimes the right combination of different styles can bring the most eye-catching and appealing sign on the block.

For example, the Finneys Crafthouse & Kitchen sign at the top of this article is a two-sided custom-shaped stationary sign. It uses neon lighting, face-lit channel letters, and an illuminated lightbox for the “& Kitchen” section. This sign is huge and stands out for an entire block. Pedestrians and drivers can all see this sign day or night. It’s like a beacon for all to come and try out Finney’s.

Here are some classics for those who want to focus on one lighting style.

Neon Blade Signs

Neon signs are always going to attract attention to your company or storefront. Here is an example.

Neon-lit blade signs are iconic and are a special type of lighted blade sign we regularly make for our clients. These illuminated blade signs are perfect for businesses that want to stand out from the competition in a nostalgic tone. They are brightly lit and can be seen from a distance, making them perfect for promoting your business at night.

Channel Letter Blade Signs

Victoria Court shopping mall sign uses halo-lit channel letters so looks great during the day and lights up at night.

You can’t go wrong with a channel letter sign. A channel letter means any character, letter, shape, or number that is 3-D and has a lighting element inside. These signs can be face-lit and or halo-lit. Typically made of aluminum and acrylic, a channel letter blade sign is rugged, affordable, and makes a statement 24/7.4

Illuminated Lightbox Blade Signs

Infogrip and Your Low Vision Store projecting lightbox signs can be seen from the street.

Star of CA Illuminated Monument Sign by Dave’s SignsYou’ll find many illuminated lightbox signs – illuminated cabinets – used for businesses alongside city streets. These projecting signs help drivers see the business, especially at night.

These signs offer a property manager a permanent sign fixture that can be easily updated when a new tenant moves into the space.

3-D / Dimensional Letter Blade Signs

Three-dimensional blade signs are perfect for businesses that want to stand out in 3-D at a lower cost than channel letters. The sleek, flowing lines of this type of blade sign will catch the eye of passersby and invite them in to see what the business is all about. These signs can be lit externally with flood and spotlights, bullet, or even gooseneck lights.

Lastly, everyone has seen a sandblasted or routed sign like this one, Zen Massage Place. A custom shape, 3-D feel on the letters, background texture, and a pop of color make this sign really stand out on Main Street downtown.

What are Blade Signs Made from?

Many materials can go into making them. Let’s take a closer look:

  • Aluminum / Metal – Aluminum and metal with acrylic graphics, flat graphic signs, and illuminated cabinets – aka lightbox signs.
  • Wood – Redwood or cedar for a traditional wood sign look. Great for sandblasted and routed signs.
  • Acrylic – Durable and weather-resistant, acrylic signs get your message across in 3-D.

Dave’s Signs: Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

Dave’s Signs is your Thousand Oaks sign company. Why do we say that? That’s because several of our most eye-catching signs are located in Thousand Oaks and other areas in Conejo Valley, CA.

And besides being nice to look at, our custom signs solve critical business challenges. For instance, they increase foot traffic and attract the attention of potential customers, bettering your bottom line.

For this city page, we thought we’d put together a collection of some of the best customs signs we’ve created and mounted in these specific areas. We’ll also tell you a little bit about each type of signage and the specific services we did for them, along with information about the companies they represent.

Examples of Dave’s Signs in the Thousand Oaks Area

These 8 examples below showcase some of the best signs we’ve designed and installed in the Thousand Oaks area.

West Tasting room sign from Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

1. Clear Oaks Plaza – Thousand Oaks

We’re going to kick off our city page with a Channel Letter Sign and Window Graphics we made for Clear Oaks Plaza in Thousand Oaks. The Channel Letter Sign was a particularly fun sign to design because it included all sorts of custom elements.

We took the logo Clear Oaks uses for their wines and created their Channel Letter Sign that uses that color scheme. The bottom banner is also made with channel letters that spelled out “Tasting Room.” The Window Graphics on their front door have a similar function. But they also display important info like Clear Oaks’ hours of operation.

2. Lifetech Resources – Moorpark

California-based company Lifetech Resources contacted us to help provide them with signage that is in line with their branding while also reflecting their cutting-edge technology.

To meet that request, we designed custom signs with window graphics for their business frontage and office windows. The sleek lines of the Lifetech logo are represented in the design. The last of the three photos is a Wayfinding Monument Sign we made for them that is impressive and eye-catching. These custom outdoor advertising signs in Thousand Oaks really turned out spectacularly!

Lal Mirch Indian Restaurant from Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

3. Lal Mirch Indian Restaurant – Agoura Hills

Every so often, an apparently simple sign design for local mom and pop businesses can get a little complicated—nothing we can’t handle, though. Take the custom Channel Letter Sign we did for Lal Mirch Indian Restaurant, for example.

There were a few complexities when we submitted their sign for approval, including adding a mansard to the sign design before the City of Thousand Oaks would approve it. We were able to create the mansard that the city required before installing the sign. Once completed, you can see the sign is really striking. The red channel letters combined with the stainless steel and yellow finishes on the sign make a striking contrast (as does delicious Indian food!).

Regency Theatres Agoura Hills from your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

4. Regency Theatres – Agoura Hills

Dave’s Signs also makes signs for large corporations. Regency Theatres has many locations in the Los Angeles area, and they have to choose the right local businesses to partner with since appearances are critical. We created this professional, eye-catching illuminated sign with Channel Letters for Regency Theatre at Stadium 8. Movie signs like this can pay dividends by amping up moviegoer attendance to the next level.

Property Management Sign for Old Agoura Apartments from Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

5. Old Agoura Apartments – Agoura Hills

Agoura Apartments didn’t want just any sign to represent their community. We are proud of the Property Management Sign we created for Old Agoura Hills Luxury Apartments, with its business directory information displayed throughout. Notice the wood grain on the sign. This apartment sign is very effective and provides a professional appearance and a lasting impression on the reader.

6. Shops at Kanan Village – Agoura Hills

Below is a stylish and smooth Multitenant Monument Sign we created for the Shops at Kanan Village. They are a surprisingly cost-effective way to advertise shops and office parks and attract more tenants. The helping display on both sides directs consumers to things like “gourmet popcorn” and “Chinese cuisine” at this Agoura Hills shopping center.

7. Corepower Yoga Outdoor & Indoor Signs – Westlake Village

Above are three signs we designed for the exterior and interior for Corepower Yoga in Westlake Village. All three are great examples of how we can take your logo and turn it into a dynamic sign for you. For example, the color palette used in the logo and design font for the Channel Letter Sign below matches their brand colors.

Corepower Yoga from Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

Having an Illuminated Storefront Sign will draw attention and give just about any business an advantage. We used an illuminated style in the image of Corepower’s frontage below. The font and logo are illuminated in the exterior lightbox panel on the establishment’s frontage. We created dark letters for the lightbox that is backlit, making them really pop at night.

The interior sign we made below really fits in with the groovy, Zen message of Corepower Yoga.

Golden Rock Real Estate Sign from Your Thousand Oaks Sign Company

8. Golden Rock Realty Channel Letter Sign – Calabasas

The Channel Letter Sign we created for Golden Rock Realty in Calabasas is another example of how we can take your logo and turn it into a dynamic sign for you. For instance, the color palette used in the logo matches our installation’s finish exactly. In addition, the font below the main channel letters has an elegant touch that gives the sign polish.

#4: Topa Mountain Winery

Ventura County wineries are iconic and are often featured in places like the Ojai Valley News. Dave’s Signs made this gorgeous Dimensional Letter sign for Topa Mountain Winery that stands out from all of them because it has an old-fashioned vintage charm to it with its rustic exterior and simple design.

The owners were looking for something unusual yet natural for their winery, which is why they chose this classic design. It is located in the heart of Ojai Valley and has been a popular destination for wine lovers since it opened.

Bali Blue Furniture Lounge sign in Ojai CA

#5: Bali Blue Furniture Lounge

Remember the Bali Blue Furniture Lounge? Sadly it, and this neon sign doesn’t exist anymore (sigh). However, during its heyday, it was an iconic slice of Americana and idyllic Southern California experience. Who could forget sitting on the porch of the beautiful Bali Blue Furniture Lounge on Ventura Avenue in comfy furniture, while enjoying a cup of coffee and watching the world go by.

The blue neon sign that Dave’s Signs made for this establishment gives you that same iconic feeling with its bright colors and simple style.

#6: Westridge Market

This beautiful old-fashioned grocery store in Ojai has been a staple of the community since it first opened. Dave’s Signs created several nostalgic signs with Custom Graphics for their interior that captures the essence of the market and its long history. The aesthetic looks hand-painted, which fits well with the rustic essence of Westridge.

#7: Sander’s & Son’s Gelato

If you’re looking for a delicious treat while in Ojai, stop by Sanders & Son’s on Ojai Avenue and enjoy a cup of Italian artisan gelatos and sorbets made with fresh local ingredients.

Dave’s Signs fun window graphics will meet you as you go in the front door too. The golden font features the name and year they were founded, and the overall effect is eye-catching and inviting. The sign complements the fun and delicious experience on a hot summer day in Ojai perfectly!

Ojai Mira Monte Apartments Sign

#8: Ojai Mira Monte Apartments

Ojai Mira Monte Apartment homes offer studio, one, and two-bedroom options that offer views of the Ojai Valley. There is a strong sense of community there where families lounge by the pool or barbecue in their picnic area.

Additionally, the Monument Sign features their name. That way, people passers-by can get more information about what makes Ojai Mira Monte Apartments the perfect place to live.
