Designing Wood Signs

We often engrave, paint, or include dimensional inserts in wooden signs. Clients choose these wooden signs often for the wood grain aesthetic for rustic, agricultural, and artisan businesses. We carve wood with the CNC router to create a dimensional effect and stain or paint those distinct colors. Although typically used for interior signs, we can also seal wood for outdoor sign use, and there are other alternatives that have a wood grain texture, like PVC, and alternatives that have a printed wood grain pattern, like ACM.

Clients looking for wooden signs are most commonly expecting wooden signs stained and then carved for text or symbols to stand out. However, this is not all we can offer with wood signs. Wood is a material that is extremely easy to build with and we are always happy to fabricate new innovative designs. 

Wooden Sign Applications

  • Dimensional Letters – Wood grain texture provides additional opportunities for grabbing attention, other than layering and shadows.  Reception desk signs and lobby wall signs will use wood inserts often for other creative brands.
  • Reception signs – Wood backer panels are also exceedingly popular for signs. These signs use PVC inserts painted any color required or are layered with ACM to create other dimensional effects.
  • Other interior carved signs – Carved signs can be complete stencil cut outs, laser engraved, or CNC carved to create a myriad of effects for wooden signs. These can be painted or stained at various points in the fabrication process to create different effects.
