The Anatomy of a Monument Sign
While there are seemingly limitless customization options, most choices revolve around the three main sign components:
- The Sign Body: Most commonly constructed out of aluminum, high density urethane (HDU), stone, or brick.
- The Sign Face: If aluminum is your choice, you may decide on vinyl lettering or something with more depth, such as dimensional letters. If the sign is illuminated, you may choose between push-through letters, or routed out letters. No idea what we’re talking about? Don’t worry. We’ve included examples below.
- The Sign Base: Can be brick, stone, or you can choose something low-profile, where there is no distinct or separate sign base.
Sign Body: Fabricated aluminum cabinet, finished in red automotive paint. The interior of the cabinet is lined with LED modules for illumination at night.
Sign Face: Aluminum with CNC routed out letters, backed with white poly-carbonate, which is a translucent material that allows the illumination of the LED modules to shine through.
Sign Base: Stone
FAQ’s
Monument signs are low to the ground, freestanding sign structures which often have vertical support structures that are concealed by an enclosed base.
Almost certainly, yes. Most local governments (townships, cities and counties) have jurisdiction to regulate zoning and building codes. There are often sections within their land use code that are specific to signage. Some jurisdictions are particular about the allowable sizes, and even design and materials.
The first step in any monument sign project is proper code research. First, find out the actual jurisdiction your property is in. This may be different than the city or town listed on your post office mail. Next, do an internet search of the jurisdiction along with the work “municode.” For example, if your sign is in Elmarkville, you can google “Elmarkville Municode,” which should lead you to a searchable version of their various codes. Type the work “signage” into the search function and you should be taken to the relevant sections, which speak to signage requirements, including allowable square feet, regulations for electric signs, and other info such as permit fees.
Yes, we sure can! Permit fess are generally $500-$750, but can be higher if more work is required – such as attending a board of adjustment, or zoning board hearing.
The production lead time for most monument signs is 2-4 weeks.
