Types of Pylon Signs

Plaza signs have several classifications based on their placement, installation and illumination.

Our custom crafted pylon signs will act as a medium on which you can display one or more logo signs. In addition to branding, they can serve other purposes as well, depending on their type.

You’re free to design your own pylon signs according to your requirements.

When used outside, the design of pylon signs magnifies your brand name. Outdoor pylon signs are made of solid materials to withstand the test of time and environmental conditions. Just like building signs, they’re made to last and will represent your business for many years to come.

Comparison of Monument & Pylon Signs

Both monument and pylon sign are intended as large-scale venue designators. Available in a range of design options and materials, they’re applicable for similar purposes including branding, wayfinding and information sharing. They are both often used as event signs to show the venue floormap. Whether placed indoors or outdoors, they’ll capture attention, boost brand recognition and increase visitor flow. Thanks to custom illumination features, both models guarantee 24-hour visibility.

The most noticable differences between the two signs are their height and installation options. Monument signs are comparatively short and available in two forms: vertical models that can be seen from a long distance and modern eye-level models placed on the ground, rarely exceeding 5 feet. They may be made of heavier materials such as stone and concrete to blend in with the surrounding architecture whereas pylons are typically made of lighter mediums such as PVC and an aluminum post for elevation.

    Pylon Signs FAQs

    Q.

    What are pylon signs?

    A.
    Pylon signs are sturdy stand-alone display structures that can be equipped with internal or external illumination. When installed outdoors, plaza signs bring more visibility to a property. Pylon signs can also be installed inside commercial buildings to create presence and guide customers towards your place of business.
    Q.

    What are plaza signs used for?

    A.
    Pylon signs establish prominence and increase exposure in crowded and obscure places alike. Plaza signs can be found inside or in front of corporate and commercial centers to designate all the offices and stores that are located at the venue. Pylon sign design is effectively used for displaying business sights in industrial areas, retail stores in town centers,  outlets near highways and so on.
    Q.

    Does pylon signage enhance awareness?

    A.
    Many businesses spend millions of dollars to increase brand awareness. Meanwhile, plaza signs are an affordable option for the task. A pylon sign may be a simple structure but its large-scale design and considerable height leave no doubt that your brand name will be seen and cover a lot of distance. Just imagine how many people will take note of your poised plaza sign during heavy traffic.
    Q.

    What’s the best location for installing pylon signs?

    A.
    Often viewed from car windows on the streets of Los Angeles and across the US, pylon signs are the number one way to get noticed from afar. Their placement is generally selected according to the direction of traffic. To be more visible, pylon signs are positioned to face streets with heavy congestion, both for foot and car traffic. The most optimal use for plaza sign panels is in large commercial and corporate centers. In such settings, they can showcase multiple business names at the same time. Plaza signs function to let everyone passing in the area know which businesses are in their vicinity.
    Q.

    How do you install huge pylon signs?

    A.
    For sizable plaza signs, professional installers will require the assistance of a crane truck to position them into place. Our team will complete the rest of the process with special tools, hardware and equipment. They’re known for speed and precision so you’ll have your signs installed without any extra hassle.
    Q.

    I’ve never bought pylon signs before – where do I start?
