Blade Signs FAQs.
What is a blade sign?
A blade sign is mounted perpendicular to a building façade so it can be seen by people approaching from either direction. It is also called a projecting sign.
Can blade signs be illuminated?
Yes. Options include internal LED lighting, halo illumination, edge lighting, and external fixtures. The best method depends on the design, depth, placement, and local rules.
Are blade signs double sided?
Most blade signs are double sided for two-direction visibility, but single-sided designs are available when the location only needs one primary viewing angle.
What materials can be used?
Common materials include fabricated aluminum, steel, acrylic, routed composites, and wood-look products. Materials are selected for style, weight, weather exposure, and budget.
Do I need a permit for a blade sign?
Many cities require permits and regulate projection, area, mounting height, and illumination. Requirements vary by address, so confirm them with your local authority or sign professional.
Can you match an existing storefront design?
Yes. We can coordinate colors, finishes, typography, logos, hardware, and architectural cues with your façade and brand standards.
How large should a blade sign be?
Size depends on viewing distance, sidewalk width, mounting height, façade proportions, local code, and the amount of information displayed. We can recommend a practical range.
How much does a custom blade sign cost?
Pricing varies with size, shape, materials, illumination, bracket engineering, access, permitting, and installation. Photos and dimensions help us quote accurately.
