Sign Planning with Smart Material & Mounting Strategies
We begin with a thoughtful plan. A careful evaluation of your space, branding goals, and materials is used to ensure a perfect fit. From acrylic CNC router signs in boutique lobbies to metal-cut directory signs in corporate buildings, we tailor the cut, depth, and finish to match your location and brand identity.
Custom Carving with CNC Accuracy
Using high-powered CNC routers, we cut clean, professional shapes, lettering, and logos from solid sheets of acrylic, metal, or PVC. Whether it’s intricate engraving or bold 3D signage, our machine-cut precision delivers smooth edges and a refined look that reflects your brand’s style and vibe. We customize our metal CNC router signs with acrylic backing or acrylic push-through, lettering, logo, or shapes in thicknesses from quarter-inch up to 1-inch.
Fabricated to Endure Chicago Weather
Our team ensures that each CNC router sign is engineered to last. We use powder-coated steel and aluminum and UV-protected acrylics crafted to withstand rain, snow, wind, and everything in between, while maintaining their sharp appearance and structural integrity over time. We don’t take any shortcuts with quality when it comes to durable design.
Zoning & Code Compliance for Exterior CNC Router Signs
Interior CNC signs typically don’t require permits; however, local zoning codes apply to exterior signage for commercial building installations. But don’t worry, we’ll handle the details and paperwork for you. Our licensed and experienced team is staffed with Chicago experts who will handle all zoning approvals and permitting so you can avoid hassles, delays, and complications.
