Dearborn, Inc located in Berea, Ohio has been in business since 1947 but still did not have a sign on the front of their building when they called. We received the call and they explained they wanted their customers to easily identify their facility when they turn the corner so they would not miss it, plus they wanted to be seen from their unique position below a bridge. We were excited to get the call and provide answers.
There were challenges to install this sign, in particular the horizontal corrugated facing. In order to get the letters and logo to mount in place we had to drill support holes in specific locations on the flat face portion of the corrugation. Dearborn, Inc also wanted to make sure the sign was made with all standard color acrylics with no painting. The letters and logo are made with 3/4" thick acrylic. The logo was made in peices so that the black and orange parts were assembled like a puzzle which required precision planning and routing. Each letter and the logo has a 3 to 4 inch rod set into the back, that is placed inside the drilled hole with strong adhesive.
In normal circumstances, building signs like this one would have the logo and letters mounted securely on metal raceway tracking so the whole sign could be installed at once since it would be in one peice. We worked with their vision to have the letters and logo be the only hardware visable. WIth careful planning and admittedly some adjusting along the way to install, we were able to provide a professional looking sign on the front of their company as they dreamed. Using effective business signs on the front of your company makes it legitimite in the eys of the customer. Once they see your company with a sign, it announces who you are, and of course the style reflects company culture.
