What shop signage includes
Most shops need a mix of signs, each doing a different job:
- The main fascia or shopfront sign – your name and logo, readable from the street or mall walkway. See shopfront signs.
- Raised or lit lettering – 3D letters or light boxes for visibility after dark.
- Window graphics – opening hours, promotions and branding on glass. See window graphics.
- In-store signs – pricing boards, category signs, posters and wall graphics.
- Compliance signs – fire equipment, exits and other safety signs.
Materials and options
The right material depends on budget, how long the sign must last and whether it is indoors or outdoors. ACP gives a flat, rigid, modern finish. Chromadek is an economical metal option for outdoor boards. Perspex suits glossy indoor signs and lit faces. Vinyl graphics and prints can be applied to most of these.
Not sure which suits your shop? Our guide to choosing the right sign material covers the trade-offs.
Pricing and turnaround
Shop signage is quoted, because size, materials, lighting and installation all change the price. We may need to measure the site. Installation is quoted separately. Production timelines are confirmed on the quote once artwork is approved.
Ready-made items such as safety signs, posters and pull-up banners can be ordered online at the price shown in the shop signs category.
Before you order
- Check with your landlord or centre management. Malls and shopping centres usually have signage rules covering size, lighting and placement.
- Larger external signs may need municipal approval under local outdoor advertising bylaws. See signage approvals: what to check.
- Have your logo in vector format. See artwork guidelines.
When you are ready, request a quote with photos of your shopfront and approximate measurements.
