Installing Channel Letters for the New Agway Storefront Sign, by Signs A La Carte- West Chester , PA-

1/6/2020

0 Comments

 

Signs A La Carte provides and installs signs for a short and/or permanent period.


PictureShop at Matlack
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. 


Mr. Mattia wanted illuminated channel letters with the Agway logo for his storefront sign. This type of lighted sign is made of custom-made plastic letters used in exterior signage on public and commercial buildings. After the permit was obtained and approved, the channel letters were manufactured, and the Signs A La Carte team installed them at the new location with a raceway. As you can see, the channel letter sign is not flush mounted. ​

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. ​
A storefront sign can also be a lighted box, an unlit sign with dimensional letters, or a custom-made face with a business’s colors, design, and shape. Check out our website page to see a few examples of the storefront sign we’ve created.
