Bring Your Sign Into the Third Dimension
Adding 3D effects to signage is not only exciting, it’s very beneficial. Dimensional letters and signs draw more attention than flat, smooth surfaces. They are different and creative – and those qualities give you an edge up over the competition. So, consider adding some depth to the letters and logos on your custom signage – prospective customers will do a double take.
Here are a few ways to add dimension to your sign:
- Wooden letters – Of course, when it comes to signage, wood is in a class of its own. Not only is it one of the strongest materials in the sign industry, it is timeless. Adding wooden letters to your signage gives a classic, professional look that simply can’t be matched.
- Plastic letters – Wooden letters may give that timeless, classy look, but plastic letters cost far less and look just as professional. They also last a lot longer outdoors. If you’re looking for a less expensive way to add dimension to your signage, plastic would be a great option!
- Metal letters – Metal always adds an air of sophistication to signage – whether it’s stainless steel, copper, titanium or gold-plated. The glossy, shimmery appearance stands out and makes the signage truly remarkable.
- Foam letters – Foam costs less than the others but can be customized to have some of the same qualities. For example, foam letters can be painted virtually any color, and even metal plated for that attractive metallic look. They are lightweight and low cost – perfect for temporary signage.
- 3D logos – You don’t have to stick to dimensional letters, you can make an entire logo 3D. Graphics of almost any size and material can be custom cut and adhered to the base of the sign and then printed vinyl can be applied on top, giving you depth and great color.
- Custom-cut signs – The entire sign can be made 3D by custom cutting it to shape. Wood, acrylic, aluminum, and plastic are particularly popular materials for 3D custom cut signs. These signs may cost a bit more than the average square or rectangular sign, but they stand out immensely!
- HDU and Sandblasted Cedar – A timeless look when it comes to dimensional signage. Dimensional wooden signs have a certain "staple" appeal. Their traditional, classic look and feel never go out of style. Whether it's a beautifully crafted roadside sign or a carved fascia sign mounted above the entryway, business owners greatly appreciate the characteristic beauty that wood – especially cedar – achieves flawlessly. HDU signs are the perfect option for anyone that wants the looking of a carved wooden sign, but not the price tag.
Whether you want your letters, logos, or signs to stand off of the wall only ¼ of an inch or boldly extend out 6 inches, dimension makes all the difference! It’s a fun and exciting way to add “flair” to your environment. Dimensional letters and logos are easy to install and simple to clean and maintain. Why not give them a try? Design something special – bring you sign into the third dimension.
