OVER 100 LED SIGNS JUST IN DFW

TURN-KEY LED Sign Manufacturing, Sign Installation, and Sign Service since 1990.

North Texas' ONLY LED Sign Builder

  We sell our signs FACTORY-DIRECT, WHOLESALE to the public, INSTALLED.

Signs Manufacturing builds Sunburst LED Signs™ brand electronic signs. As you'll find out, everything that we do is designed to make your sign look better, and last longer...Guaranteed.

We manufacture of all 3 designs.  This website explains the differences, but come to our Showroom and we'll help you decide which is perfect for your needs.

Sunburst LED Signs™ also guarantees that our price will be the lowest price you can obtain on the products described in this website; now or anytime during the next 90 days.

If you are offered a lower price by someone else we will match that lower price PLUS give you 10% of the difference.

Our Sunburst LED Signs™ offer many advantages over our competition.

Not only are we factory-direct, so that we are able to provide you with the best prices available to the industry, but we also install the signs ourselves, service them and we even work on our competitors signage!

Because of this, we control the quality of our signs as well as the time it takes to have it built/installed after your order is placed.

We also provide all of the service, repair and training ourselves!

A poorly installed EMC can void a factory warranty, leaving YOU to haggle responsibility with the installer and sign seller (broker.)

Is the sign installer working for you, or the factory, or only the sign seller (broker?)  Who is legally responsible?

Who has the financial ability to remedy accidents and omissions?  Single-source responsibility is best.  Product liability insurance is good, too.

We are your one-stop-shop for your LED sign, and we are 100% responsible for its functioning and your training.

Specifications

Signs Manufacturing builds its own LED signage.  These Digital Displays are sold under the brand:

Many people selling LED Signs don't (or can't) talk about how and why the sign they are selling is built the way it is. As a manufacturer, however, we can offer 8 DIFFERENT LED MODELS for outdoor use and we can help you decide which is right for your business.

Every sign we build has the same fabrication benefits that you will find on this website. All of the full color displays also take advantage of our advanced control hardware inside the sign will take a seemingly equivalent sign and make it look even better:

We know that shopping for something as detailed as an LED Display Sign can be confusing. We are available to answer all of your questions and show you comparisons of the available products in our Showroom.

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 sign types, resolutions, and designs.

Visit Our Unique Sign Lighting Laboratory and Demonstration Showroom with LED Video Displays

Sunburst Displays built an 85' by 50' (over 4,000 sq ft) indoor sign lighting laboratory for testing the longevity, visibility, and effectiveness of all the lighted signs we manufacture.

We have opened our laboratory to the public, for FREE, adding a Sign Showroom that includes LED Video Displays because we realized how important one would be to consumers.

You must determine which LED spacing is best, so that your sign will be successful, considering how you will use it.  You want to turn drive-by traffic into walk-in customers!

Therefore, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12mm, 16mm and 19mm exposed-LED Balanced Array, exposed-LED Classic pixel-cluster signs, and SMD enclosed-LED signs are always available for you to compare to monotone message centers and monochrome 4-thousand-shade display signs.

We manufacture all 3 types of LED signs; Balanced Array and Classic (Exposed Pixel Cluster), as well as SMD LED Signs (Enclosed Pixel Cluster) types of displays.

Also on display is a self-powered portable LED Sign trailer, the LED Sled.

We invite you to observe all types of signage, viewing them up close as well as from a distance, under varying light conditions (and stay out of the weather while doing so!)

In addition to digital signs our showroom also displays channel letter signs, both neon and LED lighted.  Reverse channel letter signs.  Cabinet signs, fluorescent, HID, or LED lighted.  Neon and LED building accent lighting.  Pinlights' signs.  Letterlites' signs.  Pole, pylon and monument signs.  Color-changing signs.  Signs with wall-wash lighting. Routed sign faces. Digitally printed and cut vinyl decorated sign faces. Push-thru lettering. And more.

Don't buy a sign from a drawing, or a Photo-shopped photo, when you can actually see and side-by-side compare real signs.

No one else can offer you this unique opportunity. Be sure to take advantage.

If you don't visit it could cost you thousands in sales every year. Can you afford not to?

Your business will be better because you do.

Your sign forms that very important "first impression" your potential customer has of your business.  Your sign must always look nearly as good as it looked the day it was installed so that you survive; don't give potential customers a worsening impression of your business as your sign ages.

Click on the "Technical Details" tab to the left to learn about the intricacies of a Sunburst LED Signs™ digital electronic message center.

Also discover how we make each sign to last; including the use of CNC manufacturing, rust-proof metal, structural-steel, 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 so they can make more money.  We even add self-cleaning properties.  Ask us for more details on these features.

Sunburst Displays uses SolarBrite LEDs exclusively in manufacturing Sunburst Displays. 

With an electronic message center you are leaving your computer out in the Texas rain, ice, heat and cold, and tornados and hurricane-force winds are trying to blow it away.  Sunburst Displays are Built in Texas, for Texans, by us.

But, it takes more than purchasing an excellent sign for your success.  It must be installed properly, and someday in the far future hopefully, it will need to be serviced.  This is why it will be important to you that WE manufacture, install and service your LED electronic message centers!

We believe that if you're a knowledgeable purchaser there's a real good chance you'll become our customer.

Changeable Message Signs - A Brief History

---

When LED lighting first replaced incandescent lighting in changeable message signs their color was monotone, and their array was balanced.

When color LEDs were introduced in the late 1990's existing computers could not coordinate the virtually unlimited display options a balanced array offered.  This resulted in a very grainy� product.  The 3 led colors (RGB) were therefore grouped into pixel clusters so that these classic computers could control the display, providing better results.

We have come a long way; computers and processors are thousands of times faster than early models.

The technical ability to place larger individual LEDs closer together without electrical co-interference has greatly improved also.  At the same time, the ability to place 3 small LEDs in a single lens evolves.

Sunburst LED Signs™ utilizes modern computing power to control the virtually limitless potential of our large LED Balanced Array Video Displays and Digital Electronic Message Center Signs.

Cost and Pricing Information

---

Visit our Cost page to help you determine general budget pricing for various types and sizes of signs and explain our 5 different payment options.

Use our Payment Plan Calculator to estimate YOUR lease cost, and our Sign Cost Calculator to estimate your after-tax cash-purchase sign cost.  They are located on our "Cost" page.  Or, ask our salesperson to run the numbers for you.

Sold FACTORY-DIRECT to our customers.  No middle-man profits.

Notice, too, how dealing directly with the manufacturer will save you additional thousands of dollars in sales/use taxes!

The detailed construction and installation information below, and on tabs to the left, is very important in developing a sign that will accomplish your goals.

Please contact us to develop an exact plan to meet your particular needs - for free (see our "Sign Design" page.)

Our professional staff will usually have exact quotations, and exact scale drawings of your signs installed on your building or property ready for you the same day we meet with you.  (That's a far cry from the typical "weeks" average in our industry.)

The Most Cost-Effective Advertising You Can Do

---

How much would you invest to double your take-home pay?

The United State Small Business Administration (SBA) says that an LED message center sign in front of a business increases the store's sales volume 15-150%.

This is all profit; expenses are already being paid.

Even with a 50% cost-of-goods this is an increase in take-home pay of 7.5% - 75%.  Most businesses do not have this high a cost-of-goods.

Deduct from this amount the $10.25 per day it costs to both purchase and operate a 6'x 12' free-standing full-color LED message center sign that is installed 20' tall, paying off the loan in 6 years.  After that, only deduct about $1.00 per day.

It's Black and White; what are your current sales?  Do you want the additional income?  Are you willing to invest $10.25 per day?

This is probably the safest investment in the world, with the highest potential return, for a business owner to make.

 "In my previous 9 years of being in business I have never had 40 customers in a day.  Since you put up my Sunburst' LED Display sign I have so-far averaged 53 customers per day, but my business is still growing again."�
Muhammad Faridi, MD, McAllen Medical Center, Dallas, Texas

"...they (American Red Cross) are so impressed with your company and the ROI of the signage..."
Lisa McNamara, American Red Cross

Your Competition

---

The nature of competition is that every competitor that buys a similar sign after you do will try to purchase one that is bigger and better.

Because of this, buy the latest technology and the biggest sign allowed by city ordinance.

Be very careful when picking your sign company. There are good ones out there, but there are far more "bargain basement" companies. Sometimes the cheapest bidder may be the best (banners, vinyl graphics, etc.) but this is not true with an LED Display.

Look at an excerpt from an article in Sign & Digital Graphics, a trade magazine, which gives advice to brokers who are purchasing this type of signage for resale:

You get what you pay for, and what seems like a smart savings upfront can turn into an expensive (and stressful) nightmare later on.

Look for a manufacturer whose signs have a reputation for durability and reliability. The manufacturers service staff should have an intimate knowledge of the sign manufacturing process, rather than those who simply read technical tips from a handbook.

Many overseas manufacturers do not produce stock parts and replacements can be very difficult or impossible to find. In tough times, you want an expert that lives and breathes the technology behind their product...

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

---

Why not buy from a Sign Dealer (also called a Sign Broker or a Sign Store?)  There are literally hundreds of them.

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, maybe foreign, 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 so he can make more money?

Believing "...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, UL 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.

If you wonder if a sign-seller can legally install and service electrical signs through-out Texas go to http://www.tdlr.texas.gov/LicenseSearch, enter "Electricians" in the "Inquire by License Type" box and the name of the sign business or person in the "Inquire by Name" box.  If they are not licensed they can not.

So someone can sell you signs and not be licensed to install or service them.  You may have to have this done.  But unless the electrical signs you buy are "listed" (U.L. usually) they won't be allowed to be installed in Texas, a State of Texas Consumer Protection Safety Law designed to insure that signs are safe to use, with a few local city ordinance exceptions.  It is not illegal to sell them to you, however.  Buy carefully.

"I had 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.  **** 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."
Chris Jennings, Jimmy Johns

Why are "Listed" Signs Critical to You?

---

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

The 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 labelling) 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!

Underwriters Laboratories (UL� Listing Mark) and Intertek (ETL� Listing Mark) originally Edison Testing Laboratory founded by Thomas Edison) are the premier certification organizations and 80% of all things electrical are tested by them.

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. If your city rejects your sign after it is installed, what do you do?

Do you think a bandit sign company, manufacturing and installing illegal signs, will stand behind you? Worse, because the sign is illegal they probably tried to put it up without a City Sign Permit. Now the city can shut-down your business.

Buy carefully.

Intertek is over twice the size of UL, and has a greater global presence.  UL is the largest in the USA.  We have both companies test and apply Listing Marks to various signs.

Whether it's channel letters, a wall cabinet sign, a monument sign, pole or pylon signs, electronic message centers, video displays, neon or other electric signs Intertek and Underwriter's Laboratory pose the toughest design, structural, electrical, and installation standards on the products they approve.

We are the 9th oldest UL Listed Manufacturer in North Texas.  (File #UXYT.E149959)

To see if a manufacturer is a UL Listed sign manufacturer go to ul.com and under "Looking for UL Certified Products?" click "Visit UL Product iQ today."  Register for free, then enter "UXYT" in the "Search" box for lighted signs, or "UYFS" for electronic signs.

We are the third oldest ETL Listed sign company in Texas. ( File #4007685)   (One of the two older companies makes lighted scoreboards, the other makes lighted office door signs.)

There are many sign companies that pretend to be Listed, but are not!

Incidentally, ISO (International Organization of Standardization) Standards, such as ISO 9001, are NOT electrical Listings (similar to a UL or ETL Listing) that allow a sign to be installed in Texas.  That said, components in our electronic signs also meet ISO 9001 and 2008 standards.

Underwriter's Laboratory and Intertek do NOT judge the appearance, appeal, or the longevity of a product.  This is why our many years of experience serving international, national, regional and local customers, and our investment so that we can apply the knowledge we've gained, will give you a superior product which will impress your customers for years to come.
