FAQ

Why are 3D signs important?

We receive a lot of interest in 3D signs from almost every customer. They’re some of the most eye-catching signs you can get, they look contemporary, and they’re completely customizable. If you‘re looking to get your brand and business noticed, 3D signs are some of the most effective ones you can get.

How are 3D signs made?

3D signs are, broadly, made of three components:

Sign housing – usually made from shaped and cut metals, such as aluminum and stainless steel.
LED lighting – installed within the sign housing and sealed at the joints to minimize the risk of water damage.
Front fascia – made of clear or colored acrylic, or left open to allow light to pass through.

What are 3D letters called?

3D letters are also called ‘dimensional letters’ and/or ‘channel letters.’ All of them are essentially the same family of signs: a 3D sign housing with lighting installed inside it. 3D signs can be hung from the wall, installed flush against the wall, be installed on the roof, or even on the ground.

What are 3D letters made of?

Aluminum and stainless steel are some of the most common materials used for the sign housing because they hit the sweet spot between price, weight, and durability. Illuminated 3D letters also include LED lighting strips, installed inside the sign, and mounting brackets on the rear of the sign.

How do you make a 3D letter?

The first step in making 3D letters is getting the design right; once you approve the design, our team starts cutting and preparing sheet metal for the design. We weld and screw metal components together to make the housing and install LED lighting inside it. Finally, we seal the joints with sealants to minimize the absorption of water.

What size should 3D letters be?

Make your 3D letters as large as they can be, without them looking awkward for the space. Outdoor 3D letters should be a minimum of 1’ x 0.5’ to be visible from a distance (adding lighting helps, too). Indoor letters can be smaller because people will likely be closer to them.

If you’re not sure how large your 3D letters should be, talk to a signage expert on our team.

How long do 3D signs last?

Expect your 3D signs to last anywhere from 7 to 15 or more years, with a little bit of maintenance. That said, the conditions in which the sign is installed in will impact how long it lasts. Things like regular servicing and checks to ensure the sign is operating normally can prolong its lifespan.

How do you add 3D letters on a storefront sign?

It’s generally inadvisable adding 3D letters to an existing storefront sign, unless it matches the style of the existing sign. If your storefront sign is over 5 years old, consider replacing it with new 3D letters; the new sign can help you generate revenue, and the efficient lighting can save you hundreds in energy bills every year.

Where can 3D signs be used?

3D signs are used indoors as lobby signs and as decorative signs in businesses across Baltimore. They’re particularly popular with boutiques and brands looking to present an upscale appearance. Outdoor 3D signs are used as storefront signs, and are some of the most attention-grabbing ones you can find for your business.
