Custom Metal Signs: What to Know Before Ordering

Custom metal signs are one of our most requested products—and for good reason. They’re tough, timeless, and can be completely customized to fit your space or brand.

Before you hit “order,” here are a few things to consider:

1. Placement Matters
Will your sign be indoors or outdoors? Mounted on a wall, gate, or post? We’ll help guide material thickness, mounting options, and finishes based on where your sign will live.

2. Size & Scale
It’s easy to underestimate how big a 24” sign looks once it’s mounted. Think about visibility, spacing, and proportion for the space where it will be displayed.

3. Design Style
We can work with logos, lettering, or even sketches to create the perfect layout. Want something rustic? Clean and modern? Family name, business logo, or cabin sign? Let’s make it yours.

4. Finish Options
Raw steel, painted, patinaed, or prepped and ready for your own paint—we offer different finishes to match the look and longevity you’re after.

5. Lead Time & Process
Because we custom-cut each sign, there’s a lead time involved (usually 2–3 weeks). We’ll mock up the design for approval and walk you through every step.

A good metal sign isn’t just a product—it’s a statement. We’re here to make sure it’s one you’ll be proud of.
