Lightbox Sign Styles That Help Rev Up Your Advertising Game

A Lightbox Sign is a type of sign that is commonly used for shopping malls, auto dealerships, gas stations, retail locations, and more. All of which use the advantage that extra visibility brings.

These cabinet-style signs, with their LED or neon illumination, provide visibility for your message. What’s more? Because they are highly visible night and day, they help rev up your advertising game 24/7.

Lightbox Signs Promote Your Brand Long-term

Professional lightbox signs are made of highly durable materials. These premium materials allow their use in just about any location. Additionally, these materials will work to promote your brand for the long term.

We’ve listed a few examples of different lighted box signs that help amplify your exposure.

Lightbox Design for Multi-Tenant Signs

Lightbox sign

Driving around, you’ve probably noticed Muti-Tenant signs. For example, take the pylon sign Dave’s Signs retrofitted for Mountain Gate Plaza. Mounted to a two-legged pylon, this sign contains a lightbox design with removable panels. Also, the design ensures every business listed gets maximum visibility.

Lighted Restaurant Sign

Lighted cabinets display the name and logo details of dining establishments. These nuances make for some memorable decor, as well. An outside LED lightbox sign like the one we created for Midici’s is a good example of this. Meanwhile, the beautiful sign guides customers in. It also gives them an incentive to stick around and have some delicious wood-fired pizza.

Special Construct Lightbox Sign 

Exterior lighted cabinets mounted on poles display vibrant features. They make your business almost impossible to miss. Dave’s Signs can expertly install them on tall poles or other special constructions.

Illuminated Sign Cabinet for Veterinary Care 

Illuminated sign boxes are often used for displaying the name, logo, and contact information. That aspect is helpful for various veterinary and healthcare businesses. The one we did for the Port Hueneme Animal Hospital promotes the brand from the moment you walk up to it and go in.

Lightbox Cabinet for Grocery Stores & Shopping Malls

Lightbox Sign for Red Barn Market
LED lightboxes establish a prominent visual identity at grocery stores, plazas and malls. They help your store stand out among other distractions. The overall effect of Red Barn Market’s red theme creates an ideal identification point. The familiar brand displayed welcomes you into its doors.

Lighted Box Signs for the Office

We’ve looked at exterior lightbox signs up until this point. However, they are also an ideal solution for the interior branding of an office. In fact, interior lighted box signs can provide a brilliant, lasting glow to any office.  Display your company logo at the entrance of the office or in the reception area. That way, the sign reinforces your brand identity where the customer experience starts.

Channel Letter Signs Make Customers Aware of Your Business

Channel Letter Signs are a very popular advertising tool. Their distinctive bold designs stand out and make customers aware of your business and brand.  Also, some of the biggest national brands around the world use channel letters to advertise and promote their products and services.

What are Channel Letter Signs?

Woodland Hills Sign Company

Gorgeous channel lettering defines this type of sign. Sign companies make channel lettering by cutting letters out of aluminum or by forming them from plastic. Once they cut them, they mount the letters on a backplate. When designed properly, channel letter signs look beautiful and can turn your business into a landmark. They are used for the interior or exterior of commercial or public buildings.

Main Types of Channel Letter Signage

BRENDAN'S CHANNEL LETTER SIGN

Typically, signage with channel lettering comes in varying configurations. However, the following three designs are the most popular:

    • Open and closed face.
    • Halo-lit, front-lit and reverse-lit.
    • Self-standing style or plate mounted.

These three basic configuration types of interior and exterior signs lead to several, versatile shapes and sizes. Custom Channel Letter Signs have the ability to turn your business into a landmark.

3 Benefits of Channel Letter Signs

BUFFALO EXCHANGE CHANNEL LETTER SIGN

  • Visibility – Channel letters appear bigger than two-dimensional signs since they have more physical depth – a 3D effect if you will. That makes them highly visible to passers-by.
  • Uniqueness – These signs are highly customizable, thereby making them reflect your brand voice superbly. For instance, the use of distinctive color matching schemes makes your company’s font and logo appear professional and unique.
  • Luminosity – Luminosity can certainly leave a memorable impression on passersby and elevate your business. To make channel lettering shine brilliantly, we can customize and add additional allure to numbers and letters. We can also use a balanced mix of color-changing neon, LEDs, or shiny new letter colors.

 

Premium Signage Starts Here

Dave’s Signs often takes on projects for national companies, such as Acura, Giorgio Armani, and AT&T. But we aren’t too big to handle signs for small businesses either like Garry Marshall Theatre, The Lido Apartments, and Toppers Pizza Place. You may have seen them on your travels or if you live in Southern California.

3 Multi-Tenant Sign Designs That Attract More Tenants

Eye-catching, Multi-Tenant Sign Designs make a huge impact and attract more tenants.  Typically seen outside of a business, they are a critical component in the promotion of commercial properties with multiple tenants in one physical location. Dave’s Signs has put together the following guide that showcases some of the best custom Multi-Tenant Signs that we’ve designed and installed.

But first, let’s discuss the difference between Multi-Tenant Signs and Directory  Signs since they look very similar.

Multi-Tenant Signs vs. Directory  Signs

351 HITCHCOCK WAY OFFICE DIRECTORY MONUMENT SIGN

Outside Multi-Tenant Signs and Directory  Signs can look similar, but their functions are different.

Businesses in shopping malls and business parks use directory signs like the one we did above to stand out and grow their brand. They also act as Wayfinding Signs for occupants. The sign has a set amount of display spaces. As new businesses are introduced or depart, the display spaces are regularly updated.

Comparatively, a Multi-Tenant Sign is large, freestanding signage made up of divided tenant panels in sections. Unlike Directory Signs, they typically tell you what tenant, business, etc is in the complex – not where you can find them. Since the panels in both types of signs are removable, changing a name is easy.

Custom Designs

Depending on your business needs and your zoning ordinances, Dave’s Signs can create your custom Multi-Tenant Sign in many different designs and ways. Here are a few to consider:

Multi-Tenant Sign Designs #1: Pylon Sign Mounted

Driving around, you’ve probably noticed Muti-Tenant signs such as this impressive one we created for Mountain Gate Plaza. Mounted to a two-legged pylon, this sign is very tall and wide. It ensures every business listed gets maximum visibility.

Multi-Tenant Sign Designs #2: Monument Multi-Tenant Signs


Multi-Tenant Monument Signs are stylish and smooth.  Additionally, they are a surprisingly very cost-effective way to promote your office park or shops. For instance, the Kanan Village example we created here is a perfect example of a monument sign that has a smooth, artistic flair.

Multi-Tenant Sign Designs #3: Monument Signs that Accentuate Your Location

Multi-Tenant Monument signs crafted from wood and masonry give a professional, rustic touch. Also, these types of signs often have a stone base. The one we created for Red Horse Plaza accentuates the plaza without being a distraction to pedestrians and drivers.

10 Benefits of LED Lighted Signs for Business Owners

Companies have been turning to traditional neon signs for decades to broadcast their presence to customers, welcome them to town and showcase the uniqueness of their brand. However, before investing in traditional neon, why not consider the flexibility and benefits of LED illumination bring to the table instead? What follows are 10 benefits LED Lighted Signs can bring to your business.

#1: Greater Signage Options

Unlike neon, which only displays solid colors, LEDs can display color changes, animation, fading & flashing features, and moving text. This allows for maximum versatility while on display.

#2: Longevity

LEDs can run for 50,000-100,000 hours, meaning signs made using them will outlast other lighting methods., essentially never burning out.

#3: Time savings

LEDs require fewer replacements and less maintenance, which saves time and money, thereby allowing you to focus attention on the areas of your business that could use your attention.

#4:  Led Lighted Signs Stay Brighter Longer

Unlike filament bulbs, LEDs don’t leak gas as time passes, which is the primary cause of dimming.

#5: Extremely Low Maintenance

LED Sign Tubes bypass the ballast which, in turn, reduces long-term maintenance. Also, LEDs don’t contain any hazardous gases or glass tubes, which can leak or break and cause detailed cleanups (even hazmat ones).

#6: Vibrant Brightness

LED Lighted Signs

LED signage’s round-the-clock vibrant brightness & visibility will help you meet your marketing goals by garnering more impressions, leads, and conversions.

# 7: Contemporary Appeal

Conserv Fuel Digital Sign Santa Barbara, CA

LED signs speak volumes to millennials and other tech-savvy people who have more modern tastes and are more accustomed to reading digital media. If your business is targeting these types of demographics, LED signage goes a long way.

#8: Environmentally Friendly 

LED lights contain no toxic gases like argon or mercury, and they are 100 percent recyclable. Moreover, many customers respect brands that are eco-conscious and often buy from them before others that aren’t.

#9: Utility Savings

LED Lighted Signs for Power One

Fortunately, LED lights run cool when compared to CFL bulbs and neon.  Because of that your indoor display won’t affect your thermostat and overclock the air conditioner.

#10: Thinner & Lightweight

LED signs do not have glass tubes as neon signs do, therefore they offer a thinner size. Because of this, you can feature signs that are bold and bright but are still nearly effortless to lift on & off their display mounts.

Increase Your Business with LED Lighted Signs

If you want a sign to help you stand out and get noticed, while saving you energy and maintenance at the same time, there’s nothing better than LED signage. Dave’s Signs offers custom illuminated signs for your building’s interior and exterior applications that will help grow your business 24/7.

LED and neon are comparable in price, so your final decision will rest on what you want to get from your business sign. If you would like to know more about your illuminated sign options and what will work best for you, please reach out to us at (805) 641-1387 or shoot us a quick question or request a quote online.

Halo Lit Signs Grab Attention and Give Your Brand a Boost

Halo Lit Signs represent branding at its finest, as they give businesses a distinguished or unique image. Their dramatic and distinctive glowing effects work to elevate and sharpen the perceived value of both the sign and your trademark.

About Halo Lit Signs

Channel Letter Sign Fabrication
Channel Letters installed onto Nationwide Insurance Sign.

Halo Lit Signs consist of aluminum sides and faces that mount onto standoffs that project away from the wall.  LED or neon lighting shines against a surface behind the letter. This produces the distinctive glow that surrounds a business’s Channel Letter font or logos.

What Colors are Available?

The color from an LED is typically white. However, other colors are available that match your organization’s branding, such as blue, red, green, yellow and amber. In other words, Dave’s Signs can create beautiful, differently colored, Halo Illuminated Signs like the ones that follow for your business.

Red Brick Pizza Illuminated Sign

This sign for Red Brick Pizza uses halo illumination, giving it a luminescent glow at night. Our favorite part of the sign is the “red bricks” that sit above the white glowing channel letters.

Halo Illuminated Signs for Your Exterior

By all means, companies must grab their customer’s attention without fail. Consider this: 50 percent of a start-up’s new customers are drawn in by on-premises signage.  Brick and mortar businesses of any size depend on professional signs to attract the attention of passersby and potential customers.  For example, this Halo Illuminated Sign created for national customer Pandora is perfect because it really catches the eye.

Halo Illuminated Signs for Your Interior

 

Generally, people consider Halo Lit  Signs for the outside of the building, but they are just as effective on the interior.  The technique is becoming increasingly common as a signage solution for interior lobbies, offices and conference rooms. Also, imagine the brand name recall and boost when your interior Illuminated Halo Sign matches the exterior one!
