What Types of Lobby Signs Are There?

Since 1979 Signs Manufacturing has been building lobby signs and reception area signage. We know that the first impression you give your customer sets the basis for your relationship with them.

Make your first impression a good one!

Lobby Signs come in several basic varieties:

In addition, there are other options for combining different sign types depending on what you would like your logo to communicate.

As always, we recommend you view the signs in our Showroom to see everything first-hand. Our Sign Consultants will help pick the right type for you and get prices to you right away.

Combining Sign Types

These options are not independent of one another. We can fabricate a lighted logo, with stainless steel letters underneath, formed plastic letters on top of those, and put it all on a painted aluminium back panel shaped to the sign.

The sky is the limit! Your Sales Consultant will help determine the best sign for you.

Guaranteed Lowest Price

Signs Manufacturing guarantees that our price will be the lowest price you can obtain on the product(s) 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.


The BEST - Diamondcast Lighted Individual Letters and Plaques

If you want to be successful, Look Successful!

These new-style lobby signs, which we manufacture, have LEDs encapsulated in solid plastic so that the entire lighted sign can be as thin as only 1 1/8".  That is a dramatic improvement over the old style of reception area signage.

Typically the problem with a lighting lobby sign was that you either had to make the sign very thick, which means it looked cumbersome and may be a hazard to people trying to work/walk in the area, or you had "hot spots" where points of light were visible in the sign's face.

The old way looked bad. The new way is fantastic!

Seeing is believing.  We strongly encourage you to visit our Showroom to see it for yourself, first hand. It's too important a decision to just leave it up to a photo.

These signs are perfect for any business that wants to create a positive lasting first impression.

  • Doctors Offices

  • Dental Offices

  • Business Offices

  • Manufacturing Facilities

  • Sports Facilities

  • Exhibits & Trade Shows

  • & more!


Basic - Routed Plastic Letters

Our routed plastic letters come in a variety of thicknesses, from 1/8" thick to as much as 1" thick!

Plastic letters are CNC routed or laser cut (depending on the application) from a computer file to make precise letters.  The sides are then smoothed out for a precise finish.  Our plastic letters are:

  • Precisely cut with straight lines and consistent arcs,

  • Exactly as shown in our production drawings, and

  • Have a durable and attractive finish.

Fast turnarounds are available.

Standard Plastic Letter Colors (custom colors are also available)

Plastic Letter Mounting Options


Basic - Formed Plastic Letters

Formed plastic letters are a great way to have a durable, inexpensive sign for your business without sacrificing that professional look that you need.

These signs are not ideal for retail businesses, but great for commercial sites, industrial, offices, etc.

Stainless Steel Letters Reception Sign

They have come in a great variety of styles and colors, sizes that range from 2" to 72" (custom sizes are also available for an even larger sign). In addition, they have many other benefits over signs:

  • UV stable & fade resistant,

  • 31 standard pigmented colors (they can be painted using our SignLux™ paint system for even more variety)

  • Greater depth than a routed plastic letter (flat cut letter) without the weight,

  • Both flat front and rounded edges are available, and

  • Lifetime Guarantee!

Fast turnaround times are available.

Standard Formed Plastic Letter Colors (custom colors are also available)

Aluminium or Stainless Letters - Good

Add a Backer Panel and Improve Even the Best

The trouble with all individual letters is that the wall behind them can detract from the appearance of the sign.

If the wall is textured unevenly, the letters will be mounted unevenly.  Or, if the color that you want for the sign blends in with the wall you are attaching it to then you need something to separate the logo from the wall behind it.

If you frame the sign with an aluminium panel, either rectangular or cut to the shape of the sign, you can dramatically improve the overall appearance.

The panel can be painted, or even be brushed aluminium.

It looks even better if it is backlighted.

But it looks Best if it is both front and back lighted (see Diamondcast™ above.)

Glass Signs - Good - and a different look

Sometimes individual letters aren't the best for your business.

In these cases, a glass sign works very well. By custom forming the glass and adding decorative "barrel" standoffs we can create a beautiful sign for the lobby or entrance of any business.

  • The edges are polished,
  • The panel can have color, or clear (transparent), frosted, etc.
  • Lettering can be flat or raised,
  • Supports can have many different shapes and colors,
  • Literally hundreds of different options!

Ask your Representative for some recommendations that fit your business and with your logo!

Different Lighting Options For Different Needs

Most people think of lighting as just ... lighting. It's what makes your sign noticeable on a cloudy day. It's what gets your business seen, and lets people know that you are there and, sometimes, that you're even open!

Business owners tend to view all lighting as the same. This is not true, and it can be bad for your business if you have the wrong lighting.

Randall Brown, formerly an owner for a chain of Whataburger locations throughout Texas and Florida, would drive by his stores every month, EVERY ONE OF THEM, to look at the lighting. If there was a sign with a letter out, or a parking lot light out, or a light inside the store that's out, or even a piece of neon (he loved lighting up his stores with neon) that wasn't working then he would contact us to repair it right away ... and his Store Manager would pay for it out of his pocket!

Randall understood the value of his signs being seen, and the importance of lighting.

One of the biggest mistakes retail store owners make is using gooseneck lighting. Sure, it's fancy and attractive and we certainly like the looks of it. But gooseneck lighting is dim. It does NOT make your sign stand out.

The purpose of a sign is, more than anything else, marketing your organization. It needs to stand out. It is the #1 advertising tool that you have ... make sure it is seen!

However, in some cases the type of lighting you are using should NOT be the brightest you can possibly get! Sometimes, the color of the lighting is more important than the level of illumination.

Take lobby signs, as an example. In a lobby you don't want that sign to blind everybody walking through your door. It should be a subtle glow that emphasizes your brand and creates an excellent first impression.

For backlighting, where the lighting is indirect such as reverse letters where the lighting is against the wall and not out the face of the sign, the lighting needs to be soft. Its purpose is to not only highlight the sign (make it glow) but also to bring out the character of the wall behind it. The lighting should not wash out the wall texture and color.

Lighted Sign Colors

Most sign companies buy whatever is available without consideration of lighting temperatures or the use/purpose of the lighting that they are using. Frequently the choice comes down to the cheapest product they can purchase ... that's what they use.

We know the difference, and the value of using the correct lighting for the job. Lighting that is used for backlighting or lobby signs should be a soft, or warm light. We typically use 5000 kelvin lighting for this application, although depending on the scenario we may choose a warmer color.

Let us help you make sure that the sign you are getting is properly built with the correct components for the purpose of the sign.
