Are You a "Visual" Person?

See Commercial Signs Before You Buy

It can be difficult to visualize how a finished sign will look from drawings or photographs alone.

Our showroom lets you compare real channel letters, monument signs, LED displays, lighting options, materials, and construction methods side by side so you can make informed decisions before your project begins.

Don't rely solely on renderings or edited photos when you can see full-size commercial signs in person.

It is difficult to picture what a sign is going to look like. What do you picture when we say "triple-layer multi-colored lighting with a textured backplate?"

Our showroom is designed to solve that problem. Most people are visual ... they need to see something firsthand to understand what it is and whether it has value to them. Seeing is believing!

Visit our Showroom to see for yourself.

Commercial Signs Built for Texas Weather

Plano businesses invest significant resources in their signage, so durability matters. Premature fading, peeling, corrosion, and lighting failures can increase maintenance costs and affect a company's appearance. That's why we've spent more than 45 years developing products and manufacturing methods designed to maximize the service life of our commercial signs.

• SignLux™ paints
• NASA's ceramic vacuum-microsphere coatings
• SignFace™ plastics
• SolarGuard™, Lumabrite™, and Optigard™ protective coatings
• Solarbrite™ LEDs
• Signs that Don't Age™

Many of these proprietary materials and manufacturing systems are exclusive to Signs Manufacturing™ and have been incorporated into our commercial signs for decades.

Why Buy Factory-Direct from a State-Licensed Plano Sign Company?

Why risk your investment by buying from a Plano sign dealer (also called a Sign Broker, Car Wrap company, or a Sign Store) instead of a trusted Plano sign company with a factory-direct operation?

Would you give a car dealer $10,000 and tell him to buy you the best car he can for the money, sight unseen (or from a drawing)? Don’t you think you would get the car that made him the most profit?

Do you really think asking for the "cheapest” car would meet your needs? Why would a Plano sign dealer, wrap company, or sign store be any different? They simply resell signs from a manufacturer, trying to maximize their profit margin, not your long-term value.

When choosing a Plano sign company, you need to know ALL of the details on how your Plano sign will be manufactured and installed. It must meet YOUR business needs, not a broker’s sales goals. What shortcuts are they requesting from the manufacturer to cut costs?

Thinking "…a sign is a sign” is like buying a Yugo instead of a Cadillac. Remember the Yugo? They didn’t last very long, either — just like cheaply made signs.

Also, most sign dealers, wrap companies, and small sign stores cannot legally install or service an electric sign. Ask to see their license before you trust them with your Plano business sign.

Even some manufacturers aren’t licensed for electrical work, meaning they hire subcontractors to install the signs they sell. That leaves you with questions: who really provides the warranty — the salesman, the subcontractor, or anyone at all?

If a sign was installed illegally in Plano, will the warranty be honored? Was the required Plano sign permit actually obtained? Is the sign even safe?

As one of the largest, UL and ETL listed Plano sign manufacturers, our name is proudly on every sign we build. Like you, we can’t afford to cut corners — which is why we offer a Complete Full Coverage Warranty plus a Lifetime Labor Guarantee*.

Any company can throw out a number of years for a warranty, but will they be around to answer your call? Our warranty is backed by over 38 years of reliable Dallas–Fort Worth sign service. We always answer the phone — no endless voicemails or unanswered texts. When you choose Signs Manufacturing™, you’re choosing accountability.

If you wonder whether a sign-seller can legally install and service electrical signs in Texas, visit the TDLR Website. Enter "Electricians” in the "Inquire by License Type” box and the name of the sign business. If they are not licensed, they cannot perform the work.

Someone can sell you signs but not be licensed to install or service them. Unless the electrical signs are UL-listed or ETL-listed, they cannot be legally installed in Texas under state consumer protection safety laws. Some city ordinances have exceptions, but beware: buying unlisted signs can create legal and safety problems.

The State of Texas does NOT allow the installation of non-listed electrical signs. A Texas Sign Contractors License (TSCL) alone is not evidence of OSHA-approved listing. Additional approvals are required — which a true Plano sign company like Signs Manufacturing™ provides.

"I had a ****-a-**** (sign company) right across the street … that store's out of business now … I found out they hired some other company to build and install our sign and they did a really #@%&&$ job, the thing has never lit right.  ****-a-**** Corporate won't do anything, they say the closed store was an independent franchise, and the sign builder/installer won't fix it, they say we weren't their customer.  I need you to come out, tell me what it will cost to get the thing working properly and get it fixed."

Plano Sign Permitting Information

Sign permits in Plano depend on the type of sign, zoning district, size, height, location, illumination, and whether the sign is attached or freestanding. The following is a general summary of Plano sign permitting considerations for commercial wall signs, monument signs, pole signs, channel letters, and electronic message center displays.

Because Plano sign regulations vary depending on zoning, frontage, planned developments, existing site conditions, and property-specific requirements, Signs Manufacturing™ will review your project and coordinate the permit process before fabrication and installation.

Plano Sign Permit Requirements

Most permanent commercial signs in Plano require a sign permit before installation, replacement, alteration, relocation, or reconstruction.

• Replacing, altering, relocating, or constructing a sign generally requires approval before work begins.
• Permit applications typically include site plans, elevations, sign drawings, dimensions, and construction details.

Electronic Message Center Displays in Plano

Electronic message centers (EMCs), LED message centers, and digital signs are regulated by the Plano Sign Ordinance and additional development standards may apply depending on the property.

• Brightness, message transitions, and operating characteristics must comply with the Plano Sign Ordinance.
• Digital sign allowances vary depending on zoning district and approved development standards.

• Allowable wall-sign area is typically based on the length of the building facade or tenant frontage.
• Building elevations showing the proposed sign location are generally required.
• Wall signs must comply with applicable projection and height limitations.
• Electrical wall signs require the appropriate electrical approvals.

Pole Sign Permits in Plano

Pole signs and other detached signs are regulated according to zoning, setbacks, sign area, height, structural design, and property configuration.

• Detached signs generally require a site plan showing the proposed location.
• Structural engineering may be required depending on the size and height of the sign.
• Sign placement must avoid easements, visibility triangles, and public rights-of-way.

Monument Sign Permits in Plano

• Monument signs generally require a sign permit.
• Engineering may be required depending on the size and structural design.
• Location, setbacks, and allowable sign area vary by zoning district and property frontage.
• Some developments have approved sign programs that establish additional monument-sign requirements.

Window Signs in Plano

• Window signs are generally exempt from a sign permit when they comply with the City's ordinance.
• Window signage must comply with the allowable coverage limits established by the Plano Sign Ordinance.
• Historic districts and certain overlay districts may have additional requirements.

Exempt Signs

Some signs are exempt from permitting, although they must still comply with the applicable provisions of the Plano Sign Ordinance.

• Certain interior signs that are not visible from outside the building.
• Some temporary signs allowed by ordinance.
• Certain onsite directional signs.
• Replacement sign faces for the same business under qualifying circumstances.

Certificate of Occupancy

If your business is opening a new location or changing occupancy, obtaining the appropriate Certificate of Occupancy before applying for a sign permit can help prevent unnecessary project delays.
