Good Value Aluminium Composite Sign Boards
3 mm Aluminium Composite is composed of a thermoplastic polyethene core sandwiched between two aluminium alloy sheets, producing high-quality boards ideal for business signs, farm & estate signage. Available in many interesting finishes, Signs made with cut vinyl lettering have a longer lifespan than full-colour printing.
Aluminium Composite Sign Boards - Full Colour
These are strong, durable, yet light weight. They are ideal for any good-quality signage. All full-colour prints are laminated for a longer lifespan. Discounts are available for ready-to-print artwork.
As well as basic boards we can supply frames and posts.
Wooden Framed Signs - Single Sided
Aluminium composite is a good quality board, strong and durable, yet alone it looks rather uninteresting. It is however completely transformed when you surround it with a beautiful wooden frame. The smaller wooden framed signs are ideal for home signs whereas the larger ones make very classy business signs.
Reflective Sign Boards and Nameplates
These sign boards are durable, lightweight, extremely flat, rigid, and do not corrode. Once you have chosen the font, size and colour, the engineering-grade reflective lettering is applied to the boards & house nameplates. These signs are easily spotted day or night.
Superior TOUGH PRINT Aluminium Signs
A range of printed signs which are superior to most other full-colour sign boards. They are comparable to vitreous enamel at considerably less cost. The colour quality is superb, with a long-term resistance to fading. They are printed directly onto aluminium and then encapsulated with a heat-treated coating, which is very robust, easy to clean and has anti-vandal and graffiti-resistant properties.
They are available as flat plate, with fixing channels and posts and as tray signs. Reflective and photoluminescent signs are also available.
Painted Sign Boards
If you are looking for a more traditional-looking sign with painted letters, these sign boards may be your answer. The board is a wood-based board made using a high-performance resin. It is very stable, strong, durable and weatherproof. It is sprayed using is a two-pack polyurethane paint, which is much more durable than standard brush-on paints
Solid Aluminium Sign Boards
Simple but exceptionally durable and long lasting. Available in many sizes, with 14 standard board colours and even more letter colours, these boards are ideal for business signs that are to be fixed to walls or wooden posts. The addition of a bullnose edge can make for an impressive entrance sign.
Painted Sign - Frame Edge
Similar to the standard boards, these have the same range of colours. The addition of a frame around the edge makes a simple sign something quite special. These are ideal for single-sided signs for wall fixing or with posts. They are made with Tricoya, an amazing wood-based board that is exceptionally durable and perfect for painting in any one of our paint colours.
Oak Framed Entrance Signs
These wooden-framed signs are beautiful entrance signs for large houses, farms, or businesses. Using a combination of traditional oak with modern aluminium composite, we have created an elegant sign to grace any entrance.
There are four standard sizes, but as always, we make them to any size and can use other materials for the panels. They are also available blank for other sign makers.
Aluminium Signage for Posts
This signage is ideal for business signs. It is made with solid aluminium sign board but with channels fitted on the reverse. They can be supplied with fixings to attach to round posts, square posts, farm gates or other tubing.
Aluminium posts can also be supplied in grey or matching colours. Fixing clips supplied.
T-Channel Entrance Signs & Directional Arrows
These are simply made using aluminium composite and aluminium channel. They look very smart and are ideal for smaller entrance signs. Full-colour artwork can be used. They are laminated for longer life. Good Value.
Deep Engraved Recycled PVC
This rugged material, designed as a commercial signage board, also makes excellent large house nameplates, entrance signs, or information signage. It is light yet hard, resilient and environmentally friendly. The surface is matt white new PVC, which covers a thick core of black recycled PVC. The material is 10mm thick and can be cut into any shape.
Aluminium Signage
Our range of aluminium signage is vast and versatile! Made from 3mm aluminium, our signs include flat plate sign boards, large tray signs, nameplates, aluminium plates with fixing channels, and double-sided business signs on posts.
We also offer finger posts and bullnose edging where required. Designed with vinyl, our aluminium signs are low maintenance and of great quality, providing you with the opportunity to personalise a sign that works perfectly for you.
Fibreglass Business Signs
Fibreglass (GRP) have massive advantage over other sign systems. Although comparatively light, they are extremely strong and therefore resistant to vandalism and weathering.
The sign boards are manufactured to any RAL colour plus black and white. The colours are a shade guide only as the actual signs are much richer and brighter as you would expect from pigmented fibreglass
ToughPrint Signs and Memorials
You won't get tougher than our tough print signs and memorials! Designed to last and weather the storms (literally), our tough print signage is moisture, abrasion, scratch, and fade-resistant. These plaques and signs can even be used in very harsh weather conditions - including by the sea.
These pieces can include small text, photos and printed designs. As well as being very durable, they are also resistant to graffiti and acids.
Painted Wooden Signs
At The Sign Maker, we are experiencing a revival in our painted wood signs which blend traditional craftsmanship with modern look. In contrast to the prevalence of vinyl signage, painted wood signs bring a distinct warmth and character. We use various timbers for the painted wooden sign, including Oak, Sapele, and Tricoya (a waterproof wood-based board), and paint them with most RAL colours plus Farrow and Ball matches. These signs are perfect as double-sided hanging signs, house signs, and entrance signs on posts.
To ensure lasting beauty and durability, we use a durable polyurethane paint mixed with a hardener which provides exceptional protection against the elements.
