Custom Metal Signs in New Jersey

Flat metal signs are used when a business needs a rigid sign panel that can handle long-term indoor or outdoor use. Gogi Signs fabricates solid aluminum, aluminum composite, and framed metal signs for storefronts, warehouses, schools, offices, real estate, property management, and commercial sites.

— Flat Metal Signs

Custom Metal Sign Panels for Commercial Properties

Metal signs are flat rigid panels made from solid aluminum sheet or aluminum composite material. They can be printed, covered with vinyl graphics, painted, cut to shape, drilled for mounting, or installed into a fabricated frame depending on the project.

Solid aluminum works well for smaller property, directional, parking, regulatory, real estate, and informational signs. Aluminum composite panels are often a better fit when the sign becomes larger and needs more panel rigidity without the weight of a thick solid sheet.

— Metal Sign Types

Solid Aluminum, ACM, and Framed Metal Sign Options

The right construction depends on sign size, mounting, exposure, finish, and how rigid the finished panel needs to be.

Solid Aluminum Signs

Flat aluminum sheet is a practical choice for parking signs, property signs, directional panels, regulatory messages, real estate signs, building notices, and smaller business signs.

Common thicknesses include .040″, .063″, and .080″.

Aluminum Composite Signs

ACM uses thin aluminum skins bonded to a solid core, giving larger signs a flat, rigid surface for printed graphics, vinyl, routed shapes, storefront panels, and permanent building identification.

A good choice for larger panels where flatness and lower weight matter.

Framed Metal Signs

For larger freestanding or wall-mounted panels, the metal face can be supported by a fabricated frame. One common construction uses 1″ × 1″ tubing behind the sign panel for added support.

Frame design depends on panel size, mounting, exposure, and installation conditions.

— Material Comparison

Choosing Between Solid Aluminum and ACM Signs

Both materials have aluminum surfaces, but they behave differently. Solid aluminum is thinner and works well for smaller sign panels. Aluminum composite is thicker as a panel and stays flatter across larger areas.

For permanent storefront panels and larger rigid signs, ACM is often the better starting point. For parking, regulatory, directional, and smaller property signage, solid aluminum is often enough.

FEATURE	SOLID ALUMINUM	ACM / DIBOND
Construction	Single aluminum sheet	Aluminum skins with rigid core
Common Use	Smaller signs and property signage	Larger panels and storefront signs
Panel Rigidity	Depends on sheet thickness and span	Stays flatter across larger areas
Custom Cutting	Holes and selected shapes	CNC routing and custom profiles
Graphics	Print, vinyl, paint, reflective film	Print, vinyl, paint, specialty finishes

— Sizes & Thicknesses

Common Metal Sign Sizes and Aluminum Thickness Options

Sign size and material thickness should be selected together. Smaller panels can often use lighter aluminum, while larger signs may call for heavier sheet, aluminum composite material, or a fabricated frame.

Common Sizes

Popular Metal Sign Sizes

These are practical starting points for property, parking, directional, storefront, and commercial sign projects.

12" × 18" Small property, parking, and informational signs

18" × 24" Parking, directional, notices, and real estate signs

24" × 36" Commercial, property, directional, and site signs

36" × 48" Larger business and building identification panels

48" × 96" Large-format ACM and framed sign applications

Custom Sizes Are Available

Panels can be cut around the available wall, fence, posts, frame, sign band, or other approved mounting area. Larger signs may call for thicker aluminum, ACM construction, or a fabricated support frame.

Solid Aluminum

Aluminum Thickness Guide

Panel thickness affects stiffness and should be matched to the sign size, mounting, support, and outdoor exposure.

.040"

Lighter Aluminum Sheet

Best suited to smaller signs that have adequate support and limited unsupported span.

.063"

Mid-Range Aluminum

A common choice for parking, property, directional, regulatory, and commercial panels.

.080"

Heavier Aluminum Sheet

Used when the sign needs more stiffness or the panel size and mounting call for a heavier gauge.

ACM

Aluminum Composite Panels

A strong choice for larger flat signs where panel rigidity and lower weight are more important than solid sheet thickness.

— Graphics & Finishes

Metal Sign Finishes and Graphic Options

The face can be finished around the sign’s use and brand. Some projects need a full-color printed panel, while others work better with cut vinyl, paint, brushed metal, or reflective graphics.

Full-Color Print

Printed logos, photographs, colors, text, and complete graphic layouts.

Vinyl Graphics

Cut lettering, logos, solid-color graphics, and replaceable applied elements.

Painted Finish

Custom painted backgrounds, borders, panels, or fabricated metal components.

Brushed Aluminum

A visible metal surface for offices, building identification, plaques, and selected business signs.

Reflective Graphics

Useful where selected parking, traffic, property, or safety messaging needs nighttime reflectivity.

Custom Shapes

Selected sign profiles, rounded corners, holes, cut-outs, and routed ACM shapes can be produced in-house.

— Mounting Options

Metal Sign Mounting Options

The mounting method should match the panel size, wall or post conditions, desired appearance, and whether the sign needs to be removed or replaced later.

Direct Wall Mounting

Panels can be mounted directly to masonry, wood, metal, or other approved surfaces with suitable hardware.

Post Mounting

Smaller aluminum signs can be drilled and mounted to posts for parking, directional, property, and regulatory use.

Fabricated Frames

Larger panels can be supported by metal tubing or another fabricated frame when the sign needs added structure.

Standoffs & Spacers

Selected interior or protected metal panels can be mounted away from the wall for added depth and shadow.

— Business Applications

Metal Signs for Commercial and Property Applications

Flat metal signs work across many commercial settings because the material can be sized, printed, cut, framed, and mounted around the actual location.

Property Management

Building rules, parking, tenant information, directional signs, property identification, and notices.

Warehouses & Industrial Sites

Dock signs, entrance signs, directional panels, safety messaging, building identification, and operational signs.

Retail & Storefronts

Wall panels, fascia signs, branded metal panels, directional signs, and exterior business identification.

Schools & Campuses

Campus identification, room and building signs, directional panels, parking, and informational signage.

Offices & Corporate Buildings

Company panels, building identification, directories, suite information, and branded interior metal signs.

Real Estate

Property signs, leasing signs, development notices, brokerage branding, and longer-term listing panels.
