Whether you are a building manager, a business owner, or planning a move to a bricks & mortar location, you know that all kinds of signs are needed. There’s the storefront sign, of course. And if you have customers or clients coming into your place of business, you will need multiple signs, some of which are legally required.

Here at Shine on Signs and Graphics, we understand that with so many different types of sign, deciding which ones you’ll need and how the regulations apply to you can be a challenge. We are always happy to help.

To give you an idea of what each sign looks like, you can check out our sign guide here. To find out where some of our signs work best, simply keep reading.

Awning signs

An awning sign works great for a city street, a business park, and an outdoor mall. Awning signs are classy and traditionally associated with storefronts. And an awning provides a great place to stop to get out of the rain, which may lead to a new customer peeking inside your shop.

Projecting signs and vertical signs

A projecting sign sticks out from the side or front of a building horizontally. A vertical sign is the vertical version of a projecting sign, with the text running from top to bottom.

Wall signs and address signs

A wall sign typically goes across the front of the entrance, above the door. An address sign is also on the front of your building, next to your front door. It displays the numbers or street address of your location.

Door signs

A door sign is fitted right onto your door. Creative alternatives for door signs include etching the information into the glass or using window or door graphics.

Banner signs

A banner sign can span the length of a wall. It can be put up or taken down easily. This flexible, eye-catching choice can make it a smart choice for holiday sales and special events.

Wall murals

Wall murals are also an excellent choice for outside if you have a suitable location. Murals grab the attention of passersby and are a smart choice for advertising.

Pole signs

Post or pole signs can get you attention on the street. These types of sign are effective and relatively common.

Monument signs

A monument sign is a permanent sign, usually made of wood or stone. These are often grand and associated with large businesses and institutions such as universities or hospitals.

A-frames

An A-frame sign resembles an easel. They are often used outside cafes and restaurants showcasing daily specials.
