Exterior Signs:

Creating Visibility When It Matters Most

Channel Letters & Wall Signs That Turn Buildings into Destinations

Your physical location is often the first tangible interaction customers have with your business. The right exterior signage doesn’t just identify—it communicates your professionalism, guides first-time visitors, and transforms anonymous architecture into a recognizable destination.

Channel Letters: Dimensional Identity with Purpose

Channel letters provide a level of visibility and professionalism that flat signage simply cannot match. By extending your identity into three-dimensional space, they create a presence that’s noticeable from multiple vantage points and viewing distances.

The Practical Advantages of Channel Letters

Enhanced Visibility Day and Night

Illuminated channel letters maintain your presence after sunset, ensuring your location remains identifiable when non-illuminated signs disappear into darkness.

Architectural Integration

We design channel letters specifically for your building's unique architecture, considering facade materials, proportions, and existing features to create harmony rather than contrast.

Weather-Resilient Construction

Kansas weather demands signage engineered for extremes. Our channel letters feature proper drainage, ventilation, and material selection that maintains appearance and functionality through seasonal changes.

Precision Installation

Secure mounting systems designed specifically for your building's construction ensure your signage remains perfectly positioned for years, not months.

"They have done the wraps for Capital City Nissan of Topeka. Very great work. All the vinyl has held up well and their installer is top notch."

Wall Signs: Converting Facades into Brand Assets

A well-executed wall sign converts blank building space into a valuable communication tool that works continuously to identify your business and welcome visitors.

Thoughtful Wall Sign Design

Proportional Sizing

We determine optimal dimensions based on viewing distance, facade size, and surrounding elements to ensure your sign is perfectly scaled—neither lost in excess space nor overwhelming your building.

Strategic Placement

Careful positioning considers traffic patterns, sight lines, and architectural features to maximize visibility from all relevant approaches.

Material Selection

We choose materials that balance aesthetic appeal with long-term performance, considering your building's appearance, local weather conditions, and maintenance requirements.

Visual Hierarchy

Information organization that ensures even first-time visitors instantly understand who you are and what you offer, even when viewing from a distance or while in motion.

"Top notch sign and service! Amazing graphic designers."

The Engineering That Matters

What separates lasting, effective exterior signage from temporary solutions often lies in elements you don’t immediately see:

Building-Specific Mounting

Mounting systems engineered for your specific building materials prevent structural issues while ensuring secure attachment.

Electrical Systems

For illuminated signs, we integrate weather-resistant components, proper grounding, and energy-efficient LED systems with appropriate drivers and controls.

Material Compatibility

We ensure all components work together to prevent issues like galvanic corrosion or thermal expansion problems that often compromise lesser-quality signs.
