Blade Signs
Eye-Level Signage That Projects Your Brand with Style
Whether you’re looking for a modern aluminum blade sign or a vintage-inspired hanging bracket design, we’ll craft a solution that reflects your brand and makes your business easy to spot from any angle.
What Are Blade Signs?
Blade signs—also known as projecting signs or perpendicular signs—are mounted perpendicular to a building facade, typically above a doorway or storefront window. They’re ideal for walkable areas and downtown districts where sidewalk traffic is heavy and wall signs may go unnoticed.

- Urban-Friendly – Perfect for downtowns, retail streets, and mixed-use developments

- Illuminated Options – Stay visible at night with LED or halo lighting
- Space-Efficient – Project outward without overwhelming your facade
Custom Blade Sign Options
- Materials – Aluminum, acrylic, wood, HDU foam, or composite
