Installing large signs for real estate, retail, and commercial purposes involves a complex process that goes beyond simply putting up a sign. It's a specialized field that often requires professional expertise to ensure safety, compliance, and effectiveness.

Here's a breakdown of the key aspects involved in the installation of large signs:

The Importance of Professional Installation

• Safety: Large signs are heavy and often installed at significant heights. Proper installation is crucial to prevent the sign from falling and causing injury or property damage. Professionals use specialized equipment like lifts and scaffolding and are trained in safety protocols.

• Durability and Longevity: A professionally installed sign will be more secure and better able to withstand the elements, such as wind, rain, and sun exposure. This protects your investment and ensures the sign remains visually appealing for years to come.

• Compliance with Regulations: Almost every city and municipality has strict regulations on the size, placement, and type of signs that can be installed. This includes zoning laws, building codes, and permit requirements. A professional sign company will be knowledgeable about these regulations and can help you navigate the permitting process.

• Aesthetics and Effectiveness: Professional installers ensure the sign is level, properly aligned, and positioned for maximum visibility and impact. This is particularly important for signs with multiple components, like channel letters, where precise spacing is essential for readability.

Key Steps in the Installation Process

1. Site Survey and Consultation: Our Installers will help assess the location to determine the best placement, consider any obstructions or sightlines, and ensure the proposed sign is compatible with the building's architecture.

2. Fabrication: The sign is manufactured using durable, high-quality materials.

3. Installation: Our team of experienced installers, often with specialized equipment, will mount the sign according to the design specifications and safety standards.

In summary, while a small sign may be a DIY project, the installation of large real estate, retail, or commercial signs is best left to professionals who can handle the complexities of safety, permitting, and specialized equipment. They ensure the sign is not only visually effective but also a safe and lasting asset for your business.
