This carved and dimensional sign combines the old word craftsmanship of a Vermont handcrafted carved wooden sign with a natural stone foundation. It is brought up to date with custom forged stainless steel brackets, a multidimensional add-on panel and a high-tech high density urethane (HDU) substrate to make it impervious to the sun, insects and the ravages of weather extremes. Like most of our carved and dimensional signs this was produced using a computer controlled router table (cnc router) which allows us to manufacture with extreme precision without sacrificing the appeal of a hand-carved sign. Meticulously hand finished, this sign is a beautiful as it is durable. The high density urethane (HDU) sign board will remain flat and free of splits for decades, and the incise carved letters with hand-applied 23K gilding will build brand recognition for years to come. Custom business signs like these are perfect for retailers to create an identity with a solid foundation. Our custom monument signs evoke the image of a solid company with a strong foundation.

This projecting blade sign is the perfect attractant for a restaurant in a walking mall. The incise carved letters and dimensional graphics speak volumes about the quality of the establishment and inform customers about the products and services sold within. Our custom design created instant brand identity and added charm to this delightful establishment. Everything from the hand crafted aluminum noodles to the custom designed bracket combined to provide a contemporary appeal for the modest fine-dining restaurant.

This custom brick monument sign is one of many that announces the entrance to branches of these locally owned banks. Combining slate-topped brick piers with a carved and gilded sign creates a solid and distinguished look that is instantly recognizable. Our craftsman hand paint and apply 23K gold leaf before attaching the signs with hand wrought powder coated steel brackets. Other signs on their properties are created with similar shapes, letter styles, colors, and gilding to create a wayfinding system which informs and identifies clients to the services found at each branch.

An entrance sign to a community of fine homes says a great deal about the homeowners that live there. This sign combines the beauty and craftsmanship of custom built-up posts with a nicely carved sign featuring a hand painted multi-dimensional pictorial. This attention to detail is matched in the craftsmanship of the fine homes and common spaces within this lakeside community.

When Ahavath Gerim congregation needed a new sign above the entrance to their building, they requested a design that would be harmonious with the architecture while presenting a graceful and attractive feel. They love their new sign and are very proud of how well it dresses up their building.

 

Town entrance signs are a source of pride to their communities. The town of Essex VT is proud to welcome visitors with three magnificent multi-dimensional entrance signs that inform visitors of the business friendly environment within their borders.

Projecting signs evoke an image of old-world charm. This lovely multi-dimensional sign is mounted on a historic storefront and announces the location of a real estate office. By combining the craftsmanship of a hand-wrought iron bracket with a carved sign containing a digitally printed logoform we were able to provide a charming appearance with contemporary appeal.

This fine dining restaurant hired a local Vermont artisan to craft a logo for their establishment. Once the logo was developed they turned to us so our fine artists could bring their brand to life. The resulting sign combines cut-to-shape anodized aluminum stars and letterforms mounted at different heights above a hand-carved mahogany wood sign panel. The finished custom restaurant sign is whimsical, attractive and appealing. This is another fine example of how easily brand identity can be established using a well designed and skillfully crafted sign.

When the cafeteria in UVM’s Cook’s common underwent a recent major renovation the plan was to create a fun and exciting environment for their students. A number of a la cart stations were designed and whimsical names were developed to differentiate their purpose. We designed a series of dimensional signs which incorporated text and graphics created with brushed metals, soft painted finishes and stainless steel accents. The Copper Kettle is ceiling mounted using stainless steel brackets and wires, the Final Touch is wall-mounted with stainless steel stand offs, and the Central Station is mounted to the counter using a custom designed stainless steel bracket. The coordinated appearance is well balanced and attractive, and combines to give a comfortable feel to the newly designed space.

The design and treatment for this cast bronze plaque makes this new restaurant appear to be an instant classic. The warm tone of the textured bronze combined with the brightly finished text and graphics creates a timeless appeal.

Sign-A-Rama's Decals and Labels PDF Print E-mail

Applied window graphics

Custom printed decals (also called labels or stickers) are a great and inexpensive way to advertise your brand or message. They can be made-to-order in virtually any size, shape or quantity. Generally screened or digitally printed on vinyl, static cling, or pressure-sensitive materials, decals are long-lasting and can be applied to a variety of surfaces including windows, walls, floors, vehicles, pavement, property or packaging. The applications for decals are limited only by your imagination. Putting your message where customers least expect it can have dramatic results.

Tips for Measuring
When determining the measurements for your custom decal, you should specify the size as the height by the width of the space you wish to cover. You want to maximize the size of your graphics and lettering within the size you specify, but always leave some negative space to make the decal graphically appealing. When ordering decals with a specific letter height, take into consideration that some lower case letters (such as g, j, q, and y) descend below other normal letters.

Materials
Decals are made from a variety of materials. Your application and budget will often dictate the best choice for your project. Decals can be made with face adhesive (and are placed on the inside of a window), back adhesive (standard), static cling (to make them removable and repositionable), or with specialty adhesives to make them stick to floors or textured surfaces.

Laminates can be applied to decals to protect them from abrasion, graffiti, or UV, and to make them slip resistant when used on floors.

Installing Decals
Most decals are easy to install. With proper preparation and planning virtually anyone can install them. With small decals it’s easy: clean the surface, line up as required and press to apply. Large decals need a little more preparation and sometimes require two people or professionals to install. Patience and planning is critical--it’s best to get your questions answered before you begin your project!

Removing Bubbles
You may occasionally end up with bubbles in your decal job. Small bubbles often go away over time (the film breathes, and flattens out after a few weeks). If you want to remove bubbles immediately, apply moderate heat and poke them with a pin, pressing the film down with your thumb.

Storage
Store unused decals in a clean, dry location, laid out on a flat surface. If you plan to store them longer than 1 year, it is recommended that they be kept in an airtight container or bag. If you reorder the same decals frequently, make sure to rotate your stock.

Decal Removal
Decal removal can vary in difficulty depending on the quality of the film to be removed, how long it's been attached, and the smoothness of the surface it’s applied to. With most decals it’s best to heat the surface the decal is applied to with a hair dryer or heat gun, while at the same time lifting the letters or stripping them off with your finger nail or a plastic razor blade.

Another method that works well is to spray the decal with a window cleaner and use a metal razorblade or window scraper to scrape the decal from the surface. DO NOT attempt this on painted surfaces, such as the body of a vehicle, or you could damage the paint. Use metal razors only on decals that have been applied to glass. If the surface is a painted surface you can use plastic razor blades, which are available at your local hardware store. The window cleaner will allow the blade to float on top and remove the adhesive and vinyl without damaging or scratching the underlying surface.

Your decal order is only a click away.
