Monument Signs

A monument sign sits at the property line and does the work a building facade cannot: it identifies the site from the road, at the speed traffic is actually moving. We build monuments as a fabricated aluminum cabinet, a masonry or stucco structure with an inset sign face, or a combination, with illuminated or push-through copy.

Options

Ways we build monument signs.

The differences below change how the sign looks, what it costs, and how it is serviced later.
  • 01

    Illuminated cabinet monument

    Fabricated aluminum cabinet with an internally lit face. Straightforward to service and the easiest to update when a tenant changes.

  • 02

    Masonry and stucco monument

    Brick, stone, or stucco structure built to match the building, with an inset illuminated panel or dimensional letters applied to the face.

  • 03

    Multi-tenant directory monument

    A single structure carrying a property name plus individual tenant panels that can be pulled and replaced as the rent roll changes.

  • 04

    Push-through acrylic

    Copy machined out of the face and pushed through in acrylic so the letters light on the face and the edge. A cleaner, more premium detail than a printed face.
