What We Consider When Planning Your Monument Sign
When planning and designing your monument sign, we’ll provide recommendations based on the following considerations:
- Monument Sign Size – Review local zoning ordinances that impact the size and square footage of your sign.
- Location and Visibility – Ensure your sign is clearly visible without dominating the landscape.
- Your Organizational Branding – Include eye-catching and branded colors, fonts, and graphics.
- Monument Sign Type – Consider options, such as monument signs with LED displays, channel letters, or simple dimensional signs.
- Lighting – Evaluate options for nighttime visibility with spotlights, backlit channel letter signs, LED displays, or LED lights, or an unlighted sign.

7 Reasons to Choose a Monument Sign

Monument signs convey a sense of permanence, credibility, and professionalism. They make a positive impression.

We can design your brick structure to blend with your existing buildings and architecture. Additionally, your monument sign can be surrounded by outdoor landscaping (not included) to make it more prominent.
5. Branding.
The appearance of your monument sign and its messaging can reflect your brand and its key messages.
6. Nighttime Visibility.
Monument sign lighting can serve as beacons, attracting people to your store, business, church, or other organization.

Statistics show a positive uptick in attendance, foot traffic, and sales when companies implement monument signs with electronic message displays.
