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.

5 Year <sup>$</sup>0 Cost LED Sign Warranty

Don't be dependent on a company in China building a stock sign then shipping it overseas to your business. Typical shipping timeframes from China are 4 months, quality control is nonexistent, even simple matters (software, setup, training, simply getting the order right) are exacerbated when dealing with a third party. Plus, the wear-and-tear on signs shipped overseas is tremendous!

There are 3 different designs of LED Signs manufactured; the Classic Pixel-cluster design, Balanced Array, and SMD LED technology. Which one is best? It depends.

Sunburst LED Signs

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.

Frequently Asked Questions About Programmable LED Signs


What are programmable LED signs?

Programmable LED signs are LED infused signs that can display dynamic photos, video, etc. for businesses, yielding unparalleled advertising results.

How do programmable LED signs work?

These signs are programmed by sending "slides" from a computer to the sign, then the sign displays the slides in a very similar fashion to a PowerPoint presentation. The sign has a processor and components that tells each individual LED on the sign what they need to do in order to render those "slides" properly.

Can I customize the content on my LED sign regularly?

The LED sign can be updated every few minutes, pre-programmed with messages to display at certain times, display time and temperature information, photos and videos, and has many other capabilities. It can even display a website!

What types of messages or content can be displayed on programmable LED signs?

There are a huge variety of options. Most commonly businesses display JPG or WMV files but the signs support a large variety of file formats in addition to streaming data from the internet (if the sign is connected to the customer's internet service).

Are programmable LED signs suitable for both indoor and outdoor use?

Yes. However, these signs are built for outdoor visibility which means they are significantly brighter and more durable than something used for indoor purposes, such as a television. While a television is fine when viewed indoors it is simply not sufficient to be noticed in the Sun from traffic viewing distances (typically over 40' away).

How bright are programmable LED signs, and are they visible during the day and night?

Sunburst LED Signs are designed for outdoor visibility and durability. They are very bright, but also have a sensor to reduce the illumination when it gets dark outside to avoid the sign being "too" bright to be read. They can be programmed to be brighter or dimmer, to fit any requirement. They also have a failsafe so that even if a light is shining on the sensor at night the sign will still dim down as needed.

What is the lifespan of programmable LED signs?

Typical life for an LED sign is over 15 years, but it varies by use. LEDs do not "go out" like a regular lightbulb. They dim over time. After 15 years of constant use the LEDs in a programmable LED sign are still lighting and advertising but they're getting to the point that the owner may want to consider replacing them. We offer solutions that will completely replace the LEDs in the sign after 15 years (or 20, 25, 30, whatever the customer chooses) without having a large expense at the end of the lifespan.

What color options are available for LED signs?

The LEDs display full color, but we can custom paint the sign frame any color the customer chooses.

Do you offer different sizes and resolutions for programmable LED signs?

Yes. Signs Manufacturing offers a large variety and our showroom is the perfect place to help decide which one is right for you.

Can I schedule messages to appear at specific times on my LED sign?

Absolutely. You can program messages for certain times, certain days, stop/start, etc. Sunburst LED Signs' system is designed so that you don't have to spend your time updating your sign. Set it once, then let it do the work for you!

Do you provide software for programming LED signs, and is it user-friendly?

Yes, we have several options for you. Our primary programming option is over the cloud by simply logging in to a website (either using your building's network or a cellular network), telling the sign what you want it to display, then logging off. You can do that from anywhere that has an internet connection. Alternatively, we can provide software so that you can open the software on a computer on your network, tell the sign what you want to display, then turn off the computer. Lastly, we can keep the sign entirely off your building's internet if you want to connect to the sign with a laptop and update it that way. Your Sales Representative will help decide what is the best option for you.

What is the energy efficiency of programmable LED signs?

These signs use shockingly little electricity. A 4'x8' full color sign only uses approximately 500 watts of power.

What is the cost of programmable LED signs?

Naturally the pricing varies dramatically depending on the size, resolution, etc. In 2024 the price can be as low as $12,000 (including cloud setup, wireless bridge, etc.)

Do you offer installation services for programmable LED signs?

Yes. We fabricate the sign in-house, perform the setup ourselves, installations, customer software training and more. We are a one-stop-shop and control every aspect of the project without any third-party markups.

Can you provide examples of businesses that have successfully used programmable LED signs?

Every day you see businesses with LED sign advertisements. The ability to dynamically change your message to people in your target market (the people around your business) is unparalleled in marketing. From restaurants showing specials, churches displaying welcome messages and service times, schools displaying important community messaging and even law firms displaying their successful events ... the opportunities to communicate positive messaging to your community/customers are endless!

The Benefits of Buying Sunburst LED Signs Factory-Direct


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

Multi-tenant Pylon Sign

Custom Pylon Signs

No middle-man profits.

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.

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

Sunburst LED Signs

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.

Details of how each sign is manufactured, and performs, are listed in tabs down the left column of this page.  Click on any tab to discover "Technical Features," "Construction Details," "Protective Coatings," "Paint Details," "LED Technology," "Masonry"...and much, much more.

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!

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.

Electronic Sign ShowroomAre you a "visual" person?  Is seeing believing?

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.

Twelve of them are on display for you to side-by-side compare.

Dallas Church SignAlso 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 slick website with photo-shopped photos, when you can actually see and side-by-side compare real signs.

"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."

Ask us for more details on these features.

Sunburst Displays uses SolarBrite LEDs exclusively in manufacturing Sunburst Displays.

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!

Changeable Message Signs - A Brief History


Digital Menu BoardsWhen 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.

Outdoor LED SignsWe 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 Video Displays and Digital Electronic Message Center Signs.

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%.

Outdoor LED SignageThis is all profit; expenses are already being paid.Digital LED Signage

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..."

Consider 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.

https://signsmanufacturing.com/images/webphotos/JobPhotos/640/dallaschildrenstheater.jpgBecause 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?


Pylon Sign with Full Color LED DisplayWhy not buy from a Sign Dealer (also called a Sign Broker, Car Wrap company 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.LED Billboard

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?

Plano TX LED Monument SignsAs 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 Coverage*.

Talk to one of our LED Sign Experts for details.

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.LED Message Board Sign

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?


Church Signs

Dallas Church Sign

Dallas Church

Dallas Church

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 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.

ETL Listing Mark 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 and Listed" tab in the Knowledge Tree™ tab in the left column.

Using Our Website to Learn | The Knowledge Tree


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 don't give potential customers a worsening impression of your business as your sign ages.

An example of our dedication to helping our customers succeed is this website. It IS the definitive source on signage information, ranked by Alexa® in the top 0.05% of ALL websites in the world, the top 0.01% in the USA!

We call our website The Knowledge Tree™. Online since 1997, this website is full of information regarding signs. Our database to create it requires over 8,000 pages; more information than some "encyclopedias."

The Knowledge Tree tells you how we manufacture our signage, and why.

Knowledge Tree™ links are on the left side of every page. For instance, click our "Types of Signs" button, then pick any of our products, and explore that page's tabs and discover how we make each sign to last; including the use of CNC manufacturing, rust-proof metal, structural-steel frames, high-end automotive paint, high-impact plastics, and most importantly, sophisticated protective coatings.

Go to our "About" page and select tabs to learn about the history of Signs Manufacturing, and many other subjects.

Unsure, or unconvinced about the importance of signage to the survival and success of a business? Click our "About" page's "Importance of Signage" tab.

Please use and enjoy this 550+ page website with over 3,000 images, the largest information resource about signs on the internet, created so you can learn about all types of signs and how you can control their affect on your image and business. Consider "bookmarking" our site as a "favorite" for easier reference later.

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

Signs are Like Boats


There are $50,000 boats and there are $400 boats. Technically both are boats, but don't expect that $400 boat to keep your business float. The devil is in the details.

If a company goes to the cost and effort of adding value to their product (types and amount of lighting, paints, protective coatings, etc.), they're going to talk about it. Pay attention to what they aren't telling you.

Our websites, literature and proposals describe in detail what we are quoting, and why we are doing it.

Nobody ever includes quality and features in their products that are not described in their literature and quotations.

Have you had a different experience?

Consider how important a quality sign, being the first thing your customers see of your organization, is to your success.

Buyer Beware! Nothing hurts a business more than bad signage.

Competitive Sign Companies


Be informed and buy carefully.

Typical LED Sign Company 'Storefront'

We warn about companies with slick websites containing photo-shopped pictures, websites that seem to offer everything you want; factory-direct sales, very low prices, free delivery, made in America, great guarantee, readily available service, etc. Lots of flowery testimonials, too.

An example is this company (to the right) which sells LED signs on Ebay "factory-direct." They advertise on Google, Bing, and many internet sites, too.

They used to say that their signs were UL listed, and that they had a Better Business Bureau A+ rating, until UL and the BBB both found out and made them remove these false claims.

Nice website, but Google their address to see if you think they can actually do all the things they say they can. Their "factory" is the upstairs business in the Google picture on the right; the one with with the Chinese-made led signs in their windows, but no main sign. Click on the picture and expand it get a closer look.

There are lots of people like this out there. We highly recommend you do a little research on their company before sending any money. One of the best things you can do is visit their facility, if that is available to you. If not, at least Google their address and make sure they HAVE a facility! Be informed and buy carefully.
