Fascia Signs
Single sided fascia signs are
commonly made from translucent acrylic with vinyl
graphics. These signs are the most economical to
manufacture and to service. Fascia signs are
typically eight inches in depth, and can be as large
as you could possibly imagine in height and length.
Usually after eight feet in height, we build the
faces out of a flexible vinyl to avoid breakage and
to reduce the weight for the installation. All back
illuminated billboard signs are made using flexible
vinyl for the face.
There is a higher end type of fascia sign. “Pierce
and Infill” It is costly to produce compared to a
simple plexi face with vinyl graphics because of
both the additional labour and the cost of materials
being used. In a Pierce and Infill sign, the word
“pierce” is referring to cutting the sign face,
typically aluminum. This sign face is usually made
from 1/8 aluminum that has the letters routed out so
the light can come through. The word “infill” is
referring to the letters being pushed in the opening
in the face. The letters are cut from a piece of ˝
inch translucent white acrylic and cut out exactly
the same size to fit them inside the aluminum. The
letters could be flush or protrude beyond the
aluminum to make the sign three dimensional. Another
style would be to pierce the aluminum then back it
up with a sheet of white translucent acrylic to
cover the holes. This is called pierce and back up
and is a more economical way to achieve a similar
effect
