Signs Manufacturing has been building illuminated letter signs since 1979!

On this website discover how Signs Manufacturing makes each illuminated letter sign to last; including the use of CNC manufacturing, rust-proof metal, high-end automotive paint, high-impact plastics, and most importantly, sophisticated protective coatings.  All our signs include these many hidden features, critically important to you but often ignored by competitors to lower their cost. We even add self-cleaning properties.

The Signs Manufacturing Your-Location Sales Team's Personalized Service


No matter what types of signs you are interested in, our sales team, consisting of 11 highly-trained individuals, is at your beck and call.

Let us meet with you in your office, or at your new signs location, or home, or anywhere.

You will probably have a firm quotation, not a non-binding "estimate" like most competitors provide, for what you want during our meeting; certainly no more than a day later.

We can design and build your next sign while maintaining Social Distancing guidelines


Our showroom is open and sanitized so you can safely review the different options available for your new signage.

Also, we have many options to help design your new look, from collaborating remotely (from your own home bridged to our design team) to designing with you in our Projection Room, which is large enough to maintain Social Distancing.

Are You a "Visual" 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.

Don't buy your sign from a drawing, a slick website, or photo-shopped pictures,
when you can actually see and side-by-side compare Real signs and designs.

"I almost made a huge mistake by not listening to you and visiting your showroom prior to buying my sign.  I thought I knew what I wanted, after listening to so many salespeople...boy, was I wrong.  My vision of the sign did not jibe with what it would really turn out to be, even after viewing so many drawings.  It was obvious the moment I entered the showroom.  If I had stuck to my guns my sign would have been a disaster.  I would have wasted a lot of money."

Sometimes it really pays to shop.

As an additional enticement to coax you into our showroom, and also smooth our manufacturing flow, we periodically have limited Specials only available "in-store;" even unannounced to our sales team.

They are based on opportunities in our production scheduling.  If we tell our salespeople in advance they collectively sell too many, causing other problems!

Specials are always for a specific type of custom-built sign with a large variety of available options, but a very limited quantity, and first-come-first-served.

"Look at that sign, it's like made out of plastic!" - Jon Taffer, Host of Bar Rescue

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


Why not buy from a Sign Dealer (also called a Sign Broker, Car Wrap company or a Sign Store?)

Legends Sports Bar lighted channel letters on a backplate in Highland Village, TX by Signs Manufacturing, Dallas, Texas.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?

Do you think you could meet your needs asking for the cheapest car he can buy?

Why would a sign dealer (Car Wrap company or sign store) be any different?  Remember, they are merely buying a sign from a manufacturer to resell to you, usually to resemble a drawing, making the most money they can.

You need to know ALL of the details on how your sign will be manufactured, and how it will be installed.  It needs to meet YOUR needs, not the seller's profit goals.  What is he telling the manufacturer you don't need?

Bridger Lighted Channel Letter Sign, Addison, TXBelieving "...a sign is a sign" gets you a Yugo instead of a Cadillac.  Remember the Yugo?  They didn't last very long, either.

Also, most sign dealers, Car Wrap companies and sign stores cannot legally install or service an electric sign.  Ask to see their license.

Ask to see a manufacturer's license also.  A few are not licensed to do electrical work, either, they also have to hire other companies to install the signs they make.

Now, who provides the warranty?  The manufacturer, the installer, the salesman, anyone?  If the sign was installed illegally do you think they'll honor their warranty?  Did they REALLY obtain your City sign permit?  Is the sign even safe?

As a large, both UL and ETL listed manufacturer, our name is on all our signs.  Just like you, we can't afford to have a bad sign destroy our business.  We have to care.  Particularly with our 5 Year $0 Cost Warranty and Lifetime Guarantees.

Construction


The people at Signs Manufacturing™ are proud that we were the first (and remain the most) automated illuminated letter production facility IN THE WORLD.

Letters manufactured by Signs Manufacturing™ are precision patterned by computer-controlledFree Estimates programmable cutters/plotters.

Installation patterns are prepared by computer also.  They are printed full-size on paper to insure that letters and words are properly spaced CNC ROUTER IN ACTIONfrom one-another when they are installed.

Metal letter backs, and plastic letter faces are cut using a computer-controlled router, insuring precision letters, which fit together perfectly.

Signs Manufacturing™ commissioned the development of a computer-controlled precision letter-forming machine; insuring that the sides of a metal letter EXACTLY match the computer-cut backs and faces, and that all bends are plumb.  We were the first company IN THE WORLD to automate illuminated letter production!

CNC Router TableThe advantage to our customer is a better made AND a better looking product.

Virtually all of our metal and plastic cutting and forming equipment is computer controlled, insuring that the signs we make are precise.

Channel letter bases will be constructed of .063 or heavier aluminium (#3003, H14 - not "soft" aluminium like some companies use) for strength and to totally eliminate the potential for rusting.

ACCU-BEND CHANNEL LETTER MACHINE IN ACTIONBecause hydraulic machines, not human hands, form our letters, we can use harder aluminium, creating a superior wind and hail resistant product.

These letters will be welded together; not screwed, stapled, or pop-riveted, to insure structural integrity.  Many municipalities, and landlords, require welded letters.

All seams will be caulked to eliminate light leaks.

Drain holes will be added, as required by the National Electric Code, to eliminate the potential for water damage to the electrical components.

When deciding on letter colors consider which direction the sign will face.

Shadows from building elements and the letters/raceways themselves can dramatically affect the daytime readability of a illuminated letter sign unless you incorporate LetterLites™ faces.

For signs facing East, South or West consider using a backplate in a contrasting color, or  LetterLites™ faces to break the effects of shadows.

We will help you with this important design decision, given the opportunity.

Tabs to other components of a illuminated letter sign are listed down the left side of this page.

Be sure to select the Sign Buyer's Check List tab to the left.  This is a tool for your use to insure that quotations you receive are for the same sign!  Insist that your bidders check-mark each line, then sign the document when they give you their quote.

Why are "Listed" Signs Critical to You?


Virtually ALL cities, as well as the State of Texas, adopt the National Electric Code as law.

ETL Listing MarkThe National Electric Code (NEC) requires that for electrical, structural, and installation safety all electrical signs be "Listed" (tested and labelled with an appropriate Listing Mark.)

Certification (testing and labeling) organizations acceptable in the USA to test to the multitude of Standards signs are required to meet are determined by OSHA.

For you the Listing Mark is insurance.  It means that the sign has been tested to insure that it is structurally and electrically safe, and will be installed properly.  You benefit from the knowledge that it is not solely us telling you that our signs are safe, this is what the testing laboratories and the US Government says also.

Will your sign be tested and approved for safe use in a Wet (Outdoor) location?  Not if it's not Listed!

If the sign you are purchasing does not have a ETL or UL Listing Mark label the sign is probably not legal to install, anywhere in Texas.   There are a few local city ordinance exceptions.

Buy carefully.

For more detailed information on "listing and labeling" click on the "Labeled & Listed" tab in the Knowledge Tree™ tab in the left column.
