What are French style metal signs?
French style metal signs are decorative plaques inspired by traditional French street and house signage. They feature elegant fonts, classic borders, and a refined, timeless appearance, often reminiscent of Parisian or provincial designs.

What material are French style signs made from?
Our French style signs are made from high-quality aluminium. This makes them lightweight, durable, and completely resistant to rust, ideal for long-term outdoor use.

Are French style metal signs suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, they are designed for outdoor use. The materials and finishes are weather-resistant, allowing the signs to withstand rain, sunlight, and changing temperatures without fading or deteriorating.

Can I customise the design of a French style sign?
Yes, every sign is made to order. You can customise the wording, size, layout, and colours. We can also adjust fonts and borders to suit your preference while maintaining the classic French style.

What colours are available for French style signs?
We offer a range of traditional colour combinations, such as cream with black lettering or deep blue with white text. Custom colour options are also available to match your property or branding.

What fonts are used on French style signs?
French style signs typically use elegant serif or script-style fonts inspired by traditional French typography. We offer a wide selection of fonts and can recommend suitable options based on your design.

How is the lettering applied to the sign?
The lettering is professionally printed onto the surface of the aluminium using durable exterior-grade inks. This produces sharp detail, consistent colour, and a long-lasting finish suitable for outdoor conditions.

How long do French style metal signs last?
With proper installation, these signs can last many years outdoors. Aluminium does not rust, and the printed finish is designed to resist fading and wear over time.

How are French style signs fixed in place?
They can be supplied with pre-drilled holes for easy fixing to walls, gates, or posts. Alternative mounting options may also be available depending on your requirements.

Can these signs include house names or business details?
Yes, French style signs are ideal for house names, addresses, and boutique-style business signage. Their elegant appearance makes them particularly popular for cottages, guest houses, and rural properties.

Do you provide design proofs before production?
Yes, we provide a design proof for approval before manufacturing begins. This allows you to check the layout, wording, and overall appearance.

Are French style signs suitable for period properties?
Yes, they are an excellent choice for period and character properties. Their traditional design complements older buildings as well as adding charm to newer homes.
