The sign on the left is basically a double-size version of one of our L2/shape5 signs and measures 20"x 40" overall. St. Mark's church is just down the street from our shop. Their sign is 48" wide, and a good example of a nice support structure that can be built for one of these sandblasted HDU signs without too much trouble. 1" thick pressure-treated boards are dadoed into the posts on the back side, tying them together. The sign face is fastened thru these, into the back, with lots of galvanized deck screws. |
| How They're Made: | |
|
Sandblasted sign faces are most often made of HDU, or high-density urethane. This material has been proven superior to redwood in long-term exterior durability. Backgrounds are sandblasted in dramatic wood grain patterns using special jigs. Structural reinforcement is included, as required, using pressure-treated lumber. All surfaces are sealed, then finished with top-quality paints and stains designed for extended outside exposure in a variety of climates. |
|
| What They Cost: | |
|
Our cost for each project is based on $60 per square foot. This cost is for a fully finished one-sided sign, designed and finished to your specifications. Signs finished on both sides are always thicker, usually include screw-eyes or integral pressure-treated wood frames, and are generally priced at $110.00 per square foot. |
