The Imperial County Office of Education (ICOE) is located at 1398 Sperber Road. Its focus is family and student quality of life as well as readying learners for college and career. Recently, Erickson Hall Construction, a thought leader in the niche of construction-related services, oversaw the venue’s upgrade. As the project neared the finishing line, the contractor hired us to produce and install 3D building signs in El Centro, CA.
Colorful Aluminum Letters, Numbers, and Shapes Assist with Wayfinding While Brand-Building for a Local Agency
To ensure that the lettering would be the exact replica of the organization’s online persona, our technicians undertook a full-color match. Next, we produced the style elements using quarter-inch-thick aluminum that we precision-cut.
It is the same method we used for the manufacturing of the children’s stylized figures along the façade. To protect the color’s great looks and ensure its longevity even with full sun exposure, we went with a baked enamel finish that is ideal for this use.
Finally, our installers stud-mounted the individual pieces to the façade. They look fantastic against the light gray backdrop and create a highly visible display that is easy to read even from far away.
A Closer Look at Baked Enamel Metal Sign Finishes for Building Signs, Address Displays, and Lettering
Even though aluminum is a sturdy material, it is good to give it some protection in the form of a finish. A second consideration is the mounted sign’s sun exposure. This treatment offers quite a few advantages. For starters, our specialists apply it with an airless spray setup. It prevents bubbles and results in an even coating.
From there, we heat the sign to bake the color. This process results in a finished product that lasts for about a decade and a half. Because it hardens, it is suitable for building letters and similar applications. We recommend finishing the signage with a clear semi-gloss, which adds a level of protection to the colorful enamel application.
