Rust free aluminum panels for property rules, safety and code signs, building notices and business names. Printed in full color in our Linden shop, laminated, cut with rounded corners and drilled for mounting, then picked up, delivered or installed across New Jersey. We also install in the five boroughs; see our NYC service area.
An aluminum sign is a flat sheet of aluminum, usually .040 or .063 of an inch thick, with your graphics printed on or cut from vinyl. It does not rust, stays flat and keeps reading clearly outside for years.
That is why most property, parking, safety and building code signs are aluminum. We print, laminate, round the corners and drill the holes, so the sign is ready for a wall, post or fence.

How solid aluminum compares with the two boards it is most often confused with.
Outdoor life is a typical range; sun, wind and mounting change it. Compare every board on our Rigid Signs page or in our sign material guide.
A few tips from our shop that save time and money.
Every photo is a real job from our shop.
Everything after the artwork is done in our Linden shop or by our own crews.
Full color print right on the board, or cut vinyl letters for sharp, simple text.
Straight cuts, rounded corners, drilled holes and routed custom shapes.
Laminate for signs that face sun, rain or a lot of hands.
Stakes, frames, posts, standoffs, rivets and tape, matched to the board.
Our own crews put signs up on walls, posts, fences and in the ground.
Collect from our Linden shop, or we deliver across New Jersey and NYC.
Send your artwork or a rough idea. We set it up, send a proof, print, cut and finish in Linden, then hand it over, ship it or put it up for you. Need design help? See sign design.
One team and one price. Your quote covers the site survey, design, fabrication and installation, so nothing gets passed to another company.
A photo of the wall or storefront, your logo and a rough size. Use the form, email or a call.
We survey the site when needed and send a drawing with sizes, colors and mounting, plus one all in price.
A 50 percent deposit starts production in our Linden shop. If the sign needs a permit, we handle the paperwork.
Our own crew installs it, with bucket and boom trucks for high work. The balance is due at installation.
Our shop sits in Union County, so most New Jersey jobs are a short drive for our crews. Pick your area to see local work, or call us for projects farther away.

What New Jersey property managers and businesses ask before ordering.
.040 is right for most signs on walls and fences. Choose .063 for signs on posts, in wind, or larger than about 18 x 24 inches.
No. Aluminum does not rust. We use stainless or coated hardware outside so the screws do not stain the sign.
Usually 5 years and more with laminate. Strong sun fades any print over time, and the sign can be reprinted later.
Yes. We make no smoking, elevator, boiler, standpipe and other notices to the wording your inspector or building manager gives us.
Yes. Brushed aluminum with black or color graphics is popular for suites, offices and building names.
A single 12 x 18 inch sign typically starts around $29 to $36. Sets and repeat orders cost less per sign. Send your sizes for a quote.
