Dimensional letter signs have an allure – the way they pop from buildings with artistic flair. At Leaderboard Signs, we don’t just make these 3D signs. We blend left-brain precision with right-brain creativity to craft dimensional signs that become conversation-starting focal points across Lewisville, TX.
Our dimensional letter process, refined over years, aims to create signs that align with zoning, suit a brand’s personality, draw eyes effortlessly and withstand every type of weather. Along the way, business owners discover just how we transform ordinary spaces into destinations with these visual centerpieces.
It Starts With Bold Creative Vision
The spark behind any remarkable sign is the vision. Our design team sits down with Lewisville business owners to understand goals, brand messaging and target audiences. We explore the feeling you want people to have seeing your storefront from across the parking lot. Do you want an elegant metallic sign suggesting high-end quality? Or large colorful letters implying a vibrant, spirited brand? These discovery calls unlock visual possibilities.
With your unique identity and site parameters in mind, our creatives compose dimensional letter sign designs on computers using 3D modeling software. We explore fonts, materials, sizes, shapes and positioning, fine-tuning concepts until we have a visually striking sign aligned with your brand essence. This proposal becomes the creative compass guiding everything from material sourcing to lighting choices in later stages.
Sourcing Durable, Quality Materials
With the vision set, our focus shifts to engineering and materials. The choices here determine how vibrant, readable and durable your Lewisville dimensional letters will remain through seasons of weather, years of UV rays and decades of customer foot traffic. We select metals like aluminum for classic refinement, plastics like acrylic for contemporary sheen or cost-effective foam for charm and versatility. Where needed, we incorporate interior LEDs to make sign letters brightly visible any time.
No matter the material, our suppliers provide commercial-grade stocks built to handle outdoor elements so we can craft long-lasting, low maintenance signs. We also remain conscious of environmental sustainability, advising eco-friendly material options wherever viable for your brand.
Meticulous Letter Crafting
We blend art and science when crafting dimensional letters and graphics to precise specifications. Using advanced equipment like laser cutters and CNC routers, our skilled team sculpt, carve and smooth raw materials into perfectly formed letters, logos and decorative elements.
It’s exacting work – programmed machines can cut general shapes but our craftspeople finesse the finer details. We remove sharp edges left behind, smooth surfaces, contour logos and gently shape more complex 3D images. Each letter must have structural integrity to hold strong once installed but also sleek, seamless lines that enhance curb appeal. No bumps, warps or imperfections make it through quality control.
Painting and Finish For Flawless Looks
With forms finely shaped, we can make the sign yours with color, paint and graphics. Using the finishes proposed in our original 3D concepts, we apply high quality paints, metallic coatings, and decorative wraps. Multiple thin layers create a richer, deeper color tonality true to your brand palette. For illuminated signs, we add LED lighting, wiring and mounts. We also add protective clear coats that shield signage from UV damage and environmental wear.
The polishing and finish work gets the visible sign surface ready to install but we also stabilize the structures behind the pretty letters. We seal, prime and reinforce unseen mounting points, hanging apparatus and electrical systems to promote interior durability over decades outside.
Careful Installation and Alignment
With support infrastructure secured inside and out, the freshly fabricated dimensional letters make their way to your Lewisville site. Our installers function like surgeons – systematically mounting sign letters using precise digital measurements we took of your store. Careful adjustments and alignments of just inches make sure the end result has clean lines with visual balance. We check spacing between letters as well as alignments with architecture and landscaping from multiple angles, tweaking as needed. Proper positioning amplifies visibility and curb appeal.
Once mounted, we conduct thorough functionality tests. Lights, wiring and electronics undergo checks to guarantee reliable performance over years outside through storms, heat waves and winter temperatures. We don’t disappear after installation but offer maintenance services to keep your dimensional letters like new.
The Allure of Dimensional Sign Letters
Flat painted-on signs lack the visual excitement to become focal points that spark curiosity from afar. But dimensional letter signs naturally draw attention with shadow, depth and sculptural quality rarely found. They layer your brand onto spaces with artistic expression versus cold utility. Promoting businesses organically when locals approach, dimensional letters also boost perceived quality and permanence.
At Leaderboard Signs, our dimensional letter process gives Lewisville brands a competitive edge with eye-catching architectures likely to be noticed and remembered. Let’s discuss the possibilities!
