Wall signs mount directly to your building and are the most direct way to put your name on your storefront — flat panels, dimensional letters, channel letters, and raceway-mounted systems, built to match your brand and your building's construction. Every sign is fabricated in-house at our Havre de Grace, MD shop, in aluminum, acrylic, PVC, HDU, wood, or metal, with mounting matched to your wall surface — brick, EIFS, stucco, or metal panel. Because we have licensed electricians on staff, illuminated wall signs — channel letters, backlit letters, and lightbox panels — are wired, permitted, and installed entirely in-house, with no outside electrician to schedule around. Our in-house permit department handles the applications, zoning variances, and landlord approvals that wall sign projects often require.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How much do wall signs cost?
- Wall signs range from about $500 for simple flat panels to $10,000+ for large dimensional letter or channel letter installations. Cost depends on materials, size, number of letters, and whether illumination is included — illuminated channel letters cost more than non-illuminated flat panels because of the electrical work involved.
- Can wall signs be installed on any building surface?
- We install wall signs on brick, stucco, concrete, wood, metal, and EIFS surfaces. Each surface requires different mounting hardware — masonry anchors for brick and concrete, specialized fasteners for EIFS and stucco, and raceway-mounted systems where the wall can't be drilled for electrical runs. We assess your building during the site survey to determine the right approach.
- Do you handle the electrical work and permits for illuminated wall signs?
- Yes. We have licensed electricians on staff who wire every illuminated wall sign we install — channel letters, backlit letters, and lightbox panels — so there's no outside electrical contractor to schedule around. Our in-house permit department also handles the sign permit application, any required zoning variance, and landlord or property management sign-off, which most wall sign projects require before installation.
- How long does it take to get a wall sign made and installed?
- Most wall sign projects take 2–4 weeks from approved design to installation. Illuminated wall signs, or projects requiring permits or landlord approval, typically take 4–6 weeks. We coordinate all permitting, electrical, and installation in-house, so you're not managing separate contractors or waiting on outside approvals.
