Custom Dimensional Building Letters Welcome Guests in Yorba Linda, CA!

Last year, Superior Signs and Graphics worked with the committee at Messiah Lutheran to put together building lettering and directional signs to help parishioners find their way. One of the board members liked our work so much that she commissioned our shop to do “Welcome” lettering for the nursing home that her father lived at before he recently died at 99 years of age. We were honored to design, produce, and install these custom dimensional building letters to welcome guests in Yorba Linda, CA!

One-Inch-Thick PVC Transforms the Entrance of a Nursing Home

At the beginning of the walkway, a canopy protects visitors from rain or too much sunshine. Before we went to work on the letter design, it was painted in an attractive white color, but it did not have any outstanding characteristics.

Our client’s father always said that he wanted to see “Welcome” letters mounted on the canopy at the home. Our technicians cut one-inch-thick PVC into the letters, painted them in a dark, contrasting color to match the canopy’s roof, and then stud-mounted the elements to the wall.

The securely mounted letters look great and now welcome visitors and residents. Our client donated this sign to the home on her father’s behalf. This is a beautiful gesture that is sure to be appreciated for many years to come.

Choosing a Material for Exterior 3D Letters

PVC is an excellent material. We can paint it in any color you like. Besides that, it is durable and weathers well. You choose a font you love, and our technicians cut the material in the appropriate shapes. However, PVC is not the only option.

Acrylic is the alternative for clients who like the sophistication of glass. Without the material’s brittle nature, acrylic perfectly embraces the chic that glass would bring to any location. You frequently see acrylic used for building letters that advertise companies.

Sign foam rated for outdoor use works well when you like the idea of going past the customary depth of one inch. It is a budget-friendly material we can paint, overlay with acrylic or metal laminates, or treat with imprinted vinyl for gradient color changes. For some of the biggest building signs, clients typically favor sign foam.

Is Metal a Good Solution?

Should you opt for metal when having our shop design custom dimensional building letters to welcome guests in Yorba Linda, CA? Examples include aluminum, copper, brass, or stainless steel. Although more expensive than most other signage materials, clients frequently fall in love with metal.

It looks elegant and presents a message of durability and longevity in a field. While it is possible to paint metal, most clients prefer to highlight the metal’s natural coloring. Slight changes might include polished versus matte metal finishes. If you really like metal but shy away from the price tag, remember that we can put a thin laminate on a sign foam backing.
