There are seven cities, a large number of villages, and plenty of townships as well as unincorporated areas in Lake County. Each setting presents with a different look, feel, and overall appeal. Is there one signage solution that could be made to fit each environment? The answer is a resounding yes. The versatility and adaptability of post and panel signs in Lake County IL, make this a marker that looks great everywhere.

What is so Special about Post and Panel Signs?

For starters, this product is deceptively simple in its construction. Usually, two posts hold a panel between them. Heights vary as determined by local zoning ordinances and the preferences of the companies that commission these items. With this design as the starting point, there is no limit to the possibility of customization.

Customizing Panels to Suit the Setting, Business, and Function

Customization is a huge part of post and panel sign design.

• Sandblasting. Select high-density urethane (HDU) for the panel. The manmade product withstands rain, insects, and weathering. We mask off areas on the board where your logo and company’s name go. Next, our technicians subject the rest of the material to a sandblasting process. The result is an attractive display with a three-dimensional feature. The backdrop can take on any texture you like.
• Engraving. Another popular option is the selection of a plaque for the panel portion. Choose a metal that supports your branding message. When there is a lot of information such as pool rules or amenity usage restrictions, we suggest engraving the product rather than casting it. Keep the metal in its original color or select a hue you prefer.
• Word bars. When you need to change the information on the panel, which is frequently the case when using this setup as a monument sign, we recommend the use of color-coordinated word bars that feature tenant or partner names. While imprinting the material with the firm’s name and logo, and perhaps an address, provides the permanent signage portion, the bars change as needed.

Capturing the Ambiance

The little extras that make a signage solution stand out also underscore the atmosphere of the locale. Usually, this includes post embellishments such as claw feet or intricately carved finials. Sometimes, the use of different paints actually assists with the creation of an atmosphere in your setting.

Who Uses Post and Panel Signs in Lake County IL?

Who does not? Attorneys favor this setup when they need a monument that features the name of the firm’s partners. Neighborhood associations also like to use these products as monuments; for them, the ability to keep out solicitors or trespassers is another reason for choosing this sign. Country clubs, parks, and health care facilities combine wayfinding with safety functions against the backdrop of a branded panel. Event organizers know that scaled down versions of post and panel signage, commonly referred to as yard signs, are excellent products for temporary wayfinding or directional purposes.
