​We were contacted by the bookstore in Kennett Square to create signage for them. As a small sign company we were delighted to be able to work with a local bookstore. They came to us with their own ideas of what signage they wanted us to create and then it was our turn to bring them to life. 
 
With the ideas they had, Signs A La Carte had to work around a permit provided by the town. We made a proof for them for the borough and they had asked us to modify the size accordingly. After we understood their needs we went to work on their signs. 

​- to replace a face on the monument sign
- Vinyl for the door (hours of operation, services)
- a banner as a temporary sign while waiting for the channel letters to be installed.

​As a business owner it is important to keep up to date signage. You want to be able to stand out and make your company look inviting. Signage is the most important thing when it comes to serving your clients. Be sure to check out Signs A La Carte when in need of new or rebranded signs.

Channel letters are exterior signs that you put on the outside of your business. Usually these are 3D and spell out the company’s name. These can be lit up from multiple angles to give a clean and appealing look. These large signs will draw attention to potential customers. 
 
We received a request for a back lit exterior sign for their second facility in Wilmington by the general manager. Christian went to meet on site to discuss with him. After the discussion, we engineered the sign and we sent a proof with different sizes and materials after they agreed on one, we put the sign in production. After checking the wires to verify that each piece of the sign will light up,  we can program the installation, that requires a scissor lift because the sign is 14 feet in the air attached to the brick wall.

In design, channel letters and cabinet signs are closely related. We use lightweight aluminum for the bodies of the lettering. Doing so has the advantage of not adding too much weight to your building’s façade. Typically, the fronts consist of polycarbonate that features your business’ chosen colors. From there, customization makes the channel letters relevant to your company.
 
There are a few options to think about when creating and designing your future channel letters. The font, lighting and overall look are something you should consider. 
 
The first step is to select the font that best communicates your branding message. This font is usually the appearance you have chosen for your website, but it does not have to be identical if you prefer a different display. If you’re interested in creating a whole new look for your business we are able to help you choose the font that will work best for your building. 
 
The next step to consider is lighting. You have three different illumination options. Front-lit letters allow the light to escape through the polycarbonate fronts for an emphasized color presentation. Back-lit letters feature a closed front but let the light escape through the back, which results in a halo effect. A third option is a combination of the two. Unlit channel letters are another possibility. If you are unsure what lighting option will work best for you Signs A La Carte is able to assure you that we will help you every step of the way. 
 
Lastly, our installer can mount the letters directly to your façade. If access to the back of your wall is not possible, or if the building’s owner specifies a different installation method, we suggest the raceway mount. Either way Signs A La Carte will handle all your installation needs. 
 

​With the current on going pandemic, many buisness have had to take a step back. It is important to know which businesses are still up and running. Signage is the best way to be able to do this. The beauty industry is expanding and so are the current trends. This is why your salon needs signage to show what you have to offer.
 
As a salon owner you must have a unique style you are looking for. At Signs A La Carte we perfect consistancy. We want your brand to be as polished as possible. Store bought signs will not get you the attention you need to showcase yourself.

The Loft Hair Salon: the business name is made of black acrylic letters which are mounted on the wall.
Man Made Salon: the back wall is entirely covered with a step and repeat vinyl.
Luxurious Hair Studio: the name of the salon is written in black vinyl on the wall inside and white on the glass door.

​ If you have thought about expanding your business you have come to the right place. At Signs A La Carte we want to see your small or large business expand with success. Franchising a business can be very stressful all the way down to the new signage. Many places look for consistent signage throughout each business location. At Signs A La Carte we specialize in creating a consistent look throughout everything we create. 

​When it comes to gaining attraction from passers-by, the best way to do so is by having a large sign that represents who you are. A well exposed sign can increase attraction by 50 times a month. Having signage that is visible for viewers from far away is very important while branding your new franchise. This will introduce new customers, as well as remind repeat customers of who you are and what your business has to offer. 

​We have worked with many companies in the past with building a franchise. Two of those companies were recent. Amazing lash and Mosquito Joe have been great clients of ours. 
 
This past July we have worked with Mosquito Joe to create a new car wrap for them. We love their unique design and look forward to seeing their vehicle on the road

-Another amazing company we have worked with is Amazing Lash! We had a lot of projects to do with Amazing Lash. We love working with such motivated clients. Some of the projects included; A-frame sign, posters, window/door graphics, and car wrap. 
 
We look forward to working with these two companies again and many more! 

​You want your franchise design to be noticed. With that being said choosing the correct font, color, and even layout is a very crucial step in the brainstorming process. At Signs A La Carte we are able to help you from start to finish. We want to make your idea come to life. Consistency is everything. It is important that a person is able to look at a franchise and immediately associate it with another one of your businesses. 
 
Although consistency is important, we understand that different towns have different rules when it comes to signage. Many franchisers run into problems with certain restrictions on different townships or landlords. Having one sign company work with your franchise throughout all locations is a benefit in this case. Having a team that understands your needs is important for any franchise.

​If your business is getting a new makeover it's time to first start thinking about the signage. At Signs A La Carte we are able to help you with this process from start to finish. We want to make the switch over for you, as easy as possible. Over the years, many companies find themselves having to rebrand to keep up with the modern time. 

​The first step of this process is to remove the old signs so we are able to install the fresh new ones. We are capable of removing any type of sign including; storefront signs, monument signs, directory signs, and window graphics. The removal of vehicle wrap is another capability we have. We can talk more about ghosting with each customer if it is necessary. 

​If your company is growing or expanding, various exciting events are happening. With that being said we would love to help you add in more signs to fit the expansion. Adding in signs on walls, doors, windows, or even directory and monument signs are an easy way to promote the growing business. Signs A La Carte is a great fit for helping with the new signage because we are so particular with our consistency and making sure every sign is the exact same. 

Over a year ago we worked with Hope Wellness Center, since then they have rebranded and changed their logo. Signs A La Carte was happy to help them with this transition. We love our repeat customers and making sure they are happy with their results! 

​We also have been working with Suitable who has recently expanded their business. They made it easy for us to navigate what signs were needed to go along with their larger business, and we made it happen. Thank you Suitable for choosing to work with us! 

​During these unforeseeable times it is hard for many businesses to stay afloat. Sadly we had to remove the channel letters for parcel & print due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Not every business is able to continue, we understand and want to make this process as easy and simple as possible. Signs A La Carte is able to not only install but also remove the no longer necessary signs. We can only do sign removal if you are going out of business.

Here is an example of one we did. The sign is made of wood with flushed acrylic letters. The congregation can even change the time of Worship, the numbers are interchangeable.

Wall Graphics- can add a pop on your plain wall. Using a mission statement or a positive quote can create a welcoming space. 
Window Graphics- inside a building, you may find different business, having your name and open hours on the entrance door can be a good idea.
Dimensional letters/ signs- are 3D letters made that are mounted individually to the wall. They can either be raised on clear spacers or mounted flush with the wall.
Mounted signs on standoff- are designed to be mounted with specialized hardware, which consists of a barrel, cap, and wall screw.

What kind of motivation do you need to get to the gym? How about a giant sign outside to remind you every time you pass by? Motivation is the first step to getting a great workout in. Signs A La Carte is here to help with all your signage needs. Do you own a fitness center? ​

The fitness center wants to attract more people and one way to do it is with signs. It is important that the brand is visibly recognized. If you are looking for specific work out, your sign should indicate it. Signs A La Carte is able to provide you with all kinds of signs specific to your need. We want you to be able to run your facility without the stress of marketing your brand. It is important to us that you are satisfied with your exterior sign. ​

Main Line Gym is another fitness center we have worked with. We added lettering and their logo to their windows. They also have a beautiful monument side outside their fitness center that draws in a lot of attention. All of their new signs are visible from the street!

​As the owner of a retail store, you probably know you need signs, but you might not know where to begin. Signs A La Carte can help you decide. After you contact us, we’ll meet with you at your business to discuss your needs, goals, and preferences. We’ll also bring our book with images of previous jobs to give you some ideas. 

​To make your business visible to potential customers, we recommend putting your business name in various places outside of your business. 
 
On the Monument Sign 
The monument sign or pole at the entrance to the commercial area is a great place to show people they’ve come to the right location. Whether the panel face is large or small, we’ll update the signage for you. 
 

​On the Building 
Do you want to take advantage of low-voltage LEDs inside your store sign? Channel letters are a great example, but you can also have an LED lighted box, where we can slide in an acrylic face with your business’s name. 
 
The Signs A La Carte team can manufacture the shape, size, and outdoor material of your choice or install dimensional letters. Large outdoor building signs do more than direct people to your business—they project an image with your unique brand and represent your care and professionalism. 
 

​On Store Windows 
We can apply various types of vinyl to fit your needs, including decals that are visible from the parking lot or colorful, perforated vinyl. The perforated vinyl allows visitors from inside your store to see outside, but the people on the outside aren’t able to see in. 
 
Another way to professionally add important information to your storefront entrance or window is to apply vinyl lettering. Signs A La Carte customizes vinyl letter stickers (font, color, and size) with your business name, hours, and the types of products and services you offer. 

​Sometimes you need to split your payments into separate installments. In this case, we can install what’s most important to you to promote your business. Generally we install the building signs, followed by the window signs. 
 
Our team works hard every day to be known as the company that guarantees quality, well-manufactured products. We appreciate our customers for trusting us with their business. Meeting with them to present the many options they have is important to us.

One day we received a message from a local business owner. His business was moving, and he needed a banner to say where the business was moving and one for the new shopping center and business location. 
 

Signs A La Carte worked with Cory Mattia, owner of the West Chester Agway store, built in 1976 primarily as a farm and feed store. Agway recently moved from its Matlack Street location to the Commons of Thornbury near the Route 926/202 intersection. For his smallest facility, Mr. Mattia decided to focus on specific categories of products rather than being too diversified. 
 
Agway was also renamed Agway Wild Birding Center. Mr. Mattia wanted customers to know the store was still open, but with a different name and location, so he decided to keep the brand and logo. 

​The Process
 
Installing channel letters on a building requires a permit from the township. Fortunately, everything went well with the permit, and Signs A La Carte created two large format banners: one for the pylon where the store was closing, and another where the store was opening. 

​​


​We also added the business name to the monument sign at both entrances of the shopping center. In this shopping center, we replace the business name on the monument sign when a tenant leaves, using a plain green plaque until there’s a new tenant. 

Raceway vs. Flush Mounted Signs 
 
The difference between the two (raceway and flush) is the method of installation. ​
​A raceway is a rectangular sign mounting structure that holds all wiring and electrical components for the letters. It generally requires three or four drill holes to mount this setup. ​
Flush mount setup requires between three and five holes in the facade for each letter. Our installers fish the wires through the holes before securing the individual elements. ​​

Building owners usually prefer the raceway option because it does the least amount of damage to the facade. ​
