Monuments
A monument sign is a freestanding, ground-level sign that’s typically eye-level and designed to be read quickly by drivers and passersby. Monument signs are often used to display a building’s name and address, mark the entrance, or identify the building’s tenants. They can be made from a variety of durable materials, including brick, stone, plastic, stainless steel, stucco, or concrete.
Here are some things to know about monument signs:
- Design – Monument signs can be designed to match the building or to reflect the company’s branding.
- Location – Monument signs are often installed near the entrance of a business or parking lot to be close to eye level and easily seen by passersby.
- Lighting – Some monument signs have LED lighting to make them more visible at night.
- Durability – Monument signs are made from durable materials to withstand harsh weather conditions and last a long time.
- Difference from pylon signs – Monument signs are different from pylon signs, which are usually mounted high up on poles and can be seen from a distance.
