3 Popular Commercial Signs Worth Considering For Your Business

1. Cabinet signs. Sign studies show that “sign recognition distances tend to increase as sign luminance increases,” and internally-illuminated channel letters exhibit 40-60% more nighttime visibility over externally-illuminated alternatives (Bullough, 2017).

With that in mind, if your business needs help getting spotted at night or standing out in a crowded signscape, cabinet signs are a great commercial sign solution, allowing owners to elevate, supersize, and illuminate their marketing message for all to see.

2. Channel letter signs. According to research by Frontiers in Psychology, nonstandard signs are “better at breaking through the advertising clutter in a competitive media marketplace,” and channel letter signs make it easy to create a one-of-a-kind display (Zhou et al., 2018, p. 471).

Not only are channel letter signs fully customizable, coming in a wide range of colors, fonts, shapes, mounting styles, and illumination options; but they are also three-dimensional, so they stand out from the 2D competition, both literally and figuratively, even when unlit.

Channel letter signs can include any logo or graphics you dream up, helping you catch eyes and convey your offerings at-a-glance.

Depending on the lighting style you choose, you can either reap the benefits of internal illumination discussed earlier, or create a unique haloed lighting effects that casts your logo and brand name in a striking silhouette, like this:

Moreover, because they are one of the most popular commercial sign types used by franchises and big businesses, channel letter signs give even brand-new businesses a baked-in sense of authority and respectability, so matter what style you choose.

3. Pylon signs. The busier the area around your sign, the harder it is for consumers to see—that’s what researchers Hong & Isaac (2021) concluded in a recent study for the Interdisciplinary Journal of Signage and Wayfinding.

If you want to break free from the visual clutter, pylon signs can move your marketing message up and away from competing sights and signs, while also allowing you to target another angle of approach. Building off the previous points, many of our pylon signs are also internally illuminated, giving your brand all the benefits of cabinet or channel letters without the need to drill into your building.
