Acrylic is a great plastic material to use for signs because it is an outdoor material that is very durable and affordable. Acrylic letters can be easily cut and shaped into many font styles, graphics and logos. Acrylic sign letters are light weight so they are safe and easy to install.
Acrylic sign letters look great both near and afar so they can be used either indoors or outdoors. The acrylic material has durable chemical properties so they can last outdoors in extreme hot or cold temperatures and resist fading in direct UV sun light. Acrylic lettering with a metal laminate, however, is not outdoor rated because its edges will chip over time.
Acrylic sign letters are very affordable especially when compared to other materials like aluminum, brass or bronze. Acrylic is affordable because it doesn't degrade, it's easy to maintain, and looks great for years.
Acrylic sign letters are cut out from a flat solid sheet by a computer driven laser. The solid acrylic sheets are available in four thicknesses up to 1/2 inch and 30 brilliant colors. The laser cut out letters have a smooth polished face and edge. Each individually cut out acrylic sign letter comes complete with mounting hardware and is easy to install in minutes.

The font has been carefully designed to allow a viewer's eye to easily see the shape of each character. Not each character in a font is exactly the same size; otherwise your sign lettering would be difficult to read. We name the font after its uppercase letter 'A' size but most lowercase letters are shorter. Some lowercase letter shapes such as 'b d f h k l' have ascenders which can be taller than the uppercase 'A' height. Some lowercase letters such as 'g j p q y' have descenders which go below the words baseline. Uppercase letters that are rounded such as 'C G J O Q S U' are taller than an uppercase 'A' because the rounded part extends above and below the baseline. Please call us if you need to know the character's actual size and not its named size.

Christy will take you step-by-step through the process of installing building letters. Thoroughly clean application area of all dirt, tar, and wax. Mark the decal with a ruled line along the top of letters and down its center.
Tape one edge of the template to the installation surface and unroll it. Level the template and tape the other edge of the installation surface.
Mark holes with center punch, then drill 1/4" holes 3" deep where indicated on your template. Remove the template and clean out all drill holes using any of the following methods: a quick puff of air, using the vents on your drill, compresses air or a turkey baster.
Insert the studs into the stud holes on the back of each letter. Place letters in holes on wall before applying silicone to verify position. Adjust as necessary. Now fill the drill holes in the wall of the first letter with silicone.
Push the tube of silicone over each stud on the first letter in order to evenly coat it with adhesive.
Push the letter into the drill holes using a shim or spacer to assure proper stand off of the letter from the wall. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the rest of the letters.
Clean the installation surface firs. Position the spacing tape on the wall and secure one end with masking tape. Unroll, level and tape the other end. Spacing tapes show the general position of each letter.
Apply silicone to all the pads on the letter first. Position the letter on the wall where indicated with the spacing tape. Tape the letter to the wall with several strips of masking tape.
Adjust as needed, push letter against wall to ensure good adhesive bond. Continue with the remainder of the letters, and allow the silicone to cure before removing the masking tape. Temperature and humidity will influence silicone cure times. On some conditions letters should cure overnight.
