About Fascia Signs

Fascia signs are a type of exterior signage mounted on the front of a building, typically above the entrance. These signs are designed to be highly visible, making them an effective tool for promoting your business and establishing a strong brand presence. Available in various materials such as aluminum, acrylic, or wood, fascia signs can be customized with different colors, fonts, and logos to reflect your brand’s unique identity. Whether illuminated or non-illuminated, fascia signs are an excellent way to enhance the curb appeal of your business and attract foot traffic.

What Are the Types of Fascia Signs?

Fascia signs come in a variety of styles and materials, each tailored to meet different branding needs and aesthetic preferences. Here are the main types of fascia signs:

  • Flat Panels: These are simple, sleek signs that are mounted directly onto the building’s fascia. Flat panels can be made from aluminium composite and are ideal for a clean, minimalist look. They can be customized with printed graphics, vinyl lettering, or raised letters and logos.

  • Sign Trays: Sign trays are designed using folded box to add depth to the signage, creating a more substantial appearance. They can be made from 2mm aluminum or aluminium composite and can be often used for fret cut designs, where the lettering or logo is cut out and backed with opal acrylic with LED illumination.

  • Built-Up Letters: These are three-dimensional letters that stand out from the building’s or facade’s surface, providing a bold and eye-catching effect. Built-up letters can be made from materials such as aluminium acrylic, or PVC, and are often face or halo illuminated to enhance visibility.

  • Flat Cut Letters: Flat cut letters are laser-cut or CNC-routed from stainless steel, aluminium composite or acrylic and mounted individually onto the building’s fascia with stud fixings or plastic locators. They offer a sleek, modern look and can be combined with various finishes and colours to match your brand’s identity.

  • Flex Faces: Flex faces are durable, flexible signs typically used for large-format fascia signs. The graphic is printed onto a tension fabric that is stretched over a frame, making it an excellent choice for large-scale signage where a seamless appearance is desired.

Fascia Signage Lighting Options

Lighting plays a crucial role in enhancing the visibility and impact of fascia signs. Here are some popular lighting options:

  • Fret Cut Sign Trays: Fret cut sign trays are designed with cut out lettering or logos that are backed with an opal acrylicl and internally illuminated. This creates a striking effect where only the cut-out portions of the sign are lit, offering a modern and professional look.

  • Halo or Face Illuminated Letters: Halo-illuminated letters, also known as backlit-lit letters, are mounted away from the wall, allowing light to shine out from behind, creating a glowing halo effect. Face-illuminated letters, have opal acrylic mounted at the face of the built-up aluminium return, making the front of the letters glow brightly. Both options provide excellent visibility and add a sophisticated touch to your signage.

  • Trough Lights: Trough lights are externally mounted lighting systems that run along the top or bottom edge of the sign. They cast an even wash of light over the sign's surface, ensuring it is well-lit and clearly visible at all times. All our trough lights are manufactured using energy-efficient LEDs

  • Lightboxes: Lightboxes use internal lighting, often LEDs, to illuminate the entire sign face. The lighting enhances the visibility of the sign’s graphics or text, making it a popular choice for businesses that need their signage to stand out at night.

How a Well-Designed Fascia Sign Can Benefit Your Business.

A well-designed fascia sign is crucial for enhancing your business’s visibility and attracting customers. It creates a strong first impression, signalling professionalism and quality, which can increase foot traffic by making your business easy to find. Research indicates that businesses can see up to a 60% increase in foot traffic after installing an effective sign. Consistent branding on your fascia sign reinforces brand recognition, helping customers quickly identify your business. Conversely, an outdated or poorly maintained sign can deter potential customers, making it essential to invest in high-quality, well-maintained signage to stay competitive and compliant with local regulations.
