What Are Aluminum Signs?

Our aluminum signs are made of two pre-painted sheets of .008" aluminum with a solid polyethylene core (for a total thickness of approximately 1/13”). They are weather-resistant and work great for a variety of uses including property, retail, manufacturing, and real estate signage.

Additional customization options available for aluminum signs include cutting signs to shape, drilling holes for easy hanging, and single or double-sided printing.

We offer a wide range of sizes for aluminum signs, and you can customize the dimensions according to your preference. Some of the most common sizes are 12" x 12”, 24" x 6", 18" x 24", 2' x 2', and 4' x 4'.

Weather Resistant Aluminum Signs

Weather-Resistant

Our aluminum signs are intended for both indoor and outdoor use. Even without the protective laminate coating, they are weather-resistant, will not rust, and will stand the test of time no matter where you use them. These 3 mm metal signs are thick and durable yet thin enough to look visually pleasing regardless of the setting.

Custom Shape Options

Your aluminum sign can be cut into shape in different ways. Our Custom Shape option cuts your sign to the exact edge indicated by your design, while our Custom with Border option cuts your sign to a specific shape while leaving a small border around its edge. You can also choose to have your aluminum signs trimmed to have rounded corners or to be cut as a circle/oval. All of these options are available through our design tool which you’ll find during the ordering process.

Installation

Aluminum signage can be hung, installed on a wall or placed in stands or frames. If optional drilled holes aren't selected, holes can be easily drilled using a metal drill bit. Use rope, string, or bungees to hang, use screws with washers to attach to wood or concrete or use nuts and bolts to attach to posts.

Care

Simply wipe your aluminum signs with a mixture of mild soap and water using a non-abrasive cloth. To keep the signs from denting or warping, do not install them where heavy winds could blow them into other objects. If your aluminum sign has protective laminate, we recommend using a citrus-based cleaner or a cleaning mixture of 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water. Wiping a small amount of cleaner with a fresh cloth will help keep your coated sign clean and vibrant.

“The process to format the sign was seamless, and they even retroactively refunded the sales tax without any issue (tax exempt). The price was better than some signs that did not have as many options for customization. No headache, and my boss was super happy with the final product, so win/win all around. Will definitely use signs.com again.”

Q:
Do you print onto the aluminum or is there a piece of vinyl overlay?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
All of our aluminum signs are printed directly onto the sign with an eco-friendly UV ink that is fade, abrasion and weather resistant. Printing directly onto the aluminum gives the sign a more polished and professional image and look than does printing onto an adhesive vinyl and then applying the vinyl to the piece of aluminum.
Q:
Can my sign have a laminate covering placed over top to protect the printed portion of the sign?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Yes! We offer a protective laminate that will coat the entire printed surface of your aluminum sign. This coating will provide a vibrant, glossy finish to your sign and will help prevent fading or damage from rain, sunlight, graffiti, and other elements. The laminate also allows you to write on your sign with dry erase markers if you wish to do so.
Q:
What color is the aluminum before printing? Do you offer brushed aluminum?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
If you were to order blank sheets of our aluminum, the color would be white. All of our aluminum is pre-painted white before having the design printed onto it. If you are looking for a brushed aluminum look, we do have that capability. Please contact us for a custom quote.
Q:
I’m looking for custom Dibond signs. Is your e-panel aluminum material different from Dibond? If so, what differences are there?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Previously we offered a material called Dibond in addition to our e-panel signage. Dibond signs, like the e-panel aluminum signs offered on this page are made up of two thin outer sheets of metal and a reinforced hard plastic (polyethylene) core for increased durability. Both of these sign types are made by the same manufacturer so the similarities are not surprising.

Despite the same makeup of these custom metal signs, the major difference is that the e-panel (aluminum) are designed specifically as an end use for signage applications. Further, our e-panel signs have proven to be sufficiently durable for outdoor use without needing the extra millimeter of thickness that Dibond offers at the extra cost.

Q:
Are aluminum signs the same thing as metal signs?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Aluminum is a type of metal. Thus, whether you are looking for custom aluminum signs or simply any type of custom metal sign then our aluminum will definitely work. Aluminum, as noted, is a rust proof and durable metal sign option. If you want to get really technical our aluminum is actually called e-panel. For simplicity sake “aluminum signs” is the term that is often used. We also offer other custom metal signs that we don’t currently offer on the website. Please contact us for a custom quote.
Q:
I was looking for Dibond signs. Are your aluminum signs considered metal signs?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Yes. Both Dibond signs (no longer offered) and our e-panel aluminum signs are durable exterior metal signs. Our aluminum signs, as noted elsewhere on this page, have thin aluminum sheets sandwiching a reinforced plastic core. Through years of experience we’ve found these signs and this specific material to be more durable than your standard aluminum sign. Our e-panel aluminum signs are an excellent alternative to custom Dibond signs. These affordable metal signs are both aesthetically pleasing and sufficiently durable for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor uses.
Q:
Will my aluminum sign rust?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Your aluminum signs should not rust. This is true even in wet conditions. Aluminum as a metal does not rust. While the sign will not rust, like any other metal, there will be some oxidation over time but your signs should look great for 5 or more years with proper care and maintenance. Adding the protective laminate coating we offer will also help prevent any rust on your sign. You also need to be careful about what type of metal you place on your aluminum sign. The bolts and washers you install your sign with need to be rust free as well, otherwise, you may see rust form around your installation hardware on your sign.
Q:
Will my aluminum sign bend?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Generally speaking there will be bend or pliability to any aluminum sign, regardless of size. Though for smaller signs there will be significantly less bend than what is seen in larger (think 96”x48”) signs. Also, because our signs include a thick solid core, you will find much less bend in our aluminum than from most aluminum sign manufacturers. Still, for larger signs we recommend that posted signage be secured to a flat surface or to multiple posts rather than just two. Using even just a middle post is usually enough to offset any trouble caused by high winds for bigger signs attached to only two posts.
Q:
Are your aluminum signs suited for outdoors?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Yes, our aluminum signs can be used for outdoor and indoor use. The reinforced plastic core combined with the other features make our aluminum signs the ideal choice for outdoor signs.
Q:
Will my aluminum signs fade or scratch?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
All of our aluminum signs are printed with weather-, fade-, and abrasion-resistant ink. Your signs shouldn’t fade or scratch through normal usage. That said, just like with any other paint on metal, such as a painted car, if you intentionally or unintentionally scratch the sign with a sharp object it is most likely going to scratch the surface and/or printed portion of the sign. You can also choose to have your sign coated with our protective laminate, providing an extra layer of security against fading and scratches.
