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. Visit Our Unique Sign Lighting Laboratory and Demonstration Showroom with LED Video DisplaysUnique in the entire sign industry, Signs Manufacturing™ 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. The Laboratory is open to the public, for FREE, adding an LED Video Display Showroom because we realized how important one would be to consumers. If you are considering purchasing an LED Video Display or Digital LED Message Center sign this exclusive opportunity will be particularly important. You must determine what type of sign, and which LED spacing is best, so that your sign will be successful, considering how you will use it. Therefore:
are always available for you to compare. We invite you to also observe all other 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!)
Will your Sodium Vapor or Metal Halide parking lot lights affect the colors of your sign at night? How visible will your pylon sign's border neon be during the day? Should you consider PinLights™, LetterLites™, SpectraLites™, or Trembler™ signs? Brighter Signs™ neon or SolarBrite™ LED lighting for channel letter signs? Fluorescent or HID lighting for your monument sign? Do Daylight or Cool White fluorescents make your sign's colors look best? What are the differences between a flex-faced, a Lexan™, and an acrylic-faced sign cabinet? How will shadows affect my sign's readability during the day? Should the wall behind my sign be light or dark colored? Would a different type of sign look better on my brick wall? Should I consider a routed sign face with push-through letters?

No one else can offer you this unique opportunity. Be sure to take advantage. Your business will be better because you do. If you don't visit it could cost you thousands in sales every year. Can you afford not to?
"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."
Let Us Come To You! Your-Location Sales Team's Personalized ServiceNo 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. Showroom Specials
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. 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. There are a few local city ordinance exceptions. Buy carefully.
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. To see if a manufacturer is an ETL Listed sign manufacturer go to http://etlwhidirectory.etlsemko.com/WebClients/ITS/DLP/products.nsf/ and enter "UL-48" in the search box. 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! Not all of our production is Listed; some specialty signs custom manufactured for clients are not able to be Listed because of their design, however most are. 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, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and RoHS 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.UL listed Sign ComponentUnderwriters Laboratories has evaluated our sister products PinLights™ and LetterLites™ and they have been approved for use in outdoor, damp and wet location signs. UL Approval #E345252. They are the only approved individual LED first-surface lighting products. As the manufacturer we are very proud of this. Quality Certified Signs™ Trained Technicians

Even though a sign may have looked good when new, as it visibly ages it no longer helps you gain customers. It drives potential new customers, and existing customers, away. The Small Business Development Center (one page up) has observed that aging signs is a key reason that once-successful businesses fail. This website details how Signs Manufacturing™ delays the aging process! Click any tab to the left to pick a product and discover how we manufacture each sign to last; including the use of rust-proof metal, high-end automotive paint, high-impact plastics, and most importantly, sophisticated protective coatings. In a study of 10 year old local Dallas/Ft. Worth businesses, it was observed that a significantly larger number of businesses who had their signs manufactured by Signs Manufacturing™ were still in business (compared to businesses served by other sign manufacturers identified during the study.) While it is tempting (to BOTH the purchaser and the sign manufacturer) to save money now by not investing in the future it is a terrible mistake which the SBDC says practically assures failure sometime down the road! Generally speaking, sign companies that do not offer the features we offer, or downplay these features, only do so because they can not provide them. They haven't invested for your future. Products We've Introduced to Use on Signage"All sign companies do the same thing!" Our customers say that other sign companies use this line a lot when asked to explain what they do differently to make their signs superior. Through years of research we have introduced many quality products and procedures to use on signage. Most remain unused by other sign companies because they have no idea where to obtain them. Some of these products are:
