FAQ’s


What metal is best for outdoor signs? 

Since outdoor signs need to be able to withstand exterior elements, you need to choose a material that will offer longevity. Known for its strength and rigidity, aluminum is a top choice for metal signs. Available in a variety of thicknesses, metal signs made with aluminum can be thin or have a heavy-duty design. 

What kind of metal is used for signs? 

There are a variety of metals you can choose from such as stainless steel, bronze, brass, and aluminum. However, the most common metal used for business signs is aluminum due to its versatility and durability. Based on the design of your sign, SSK Signs can help you determine the best metal that will achieve the results you want. 

How long do metal signs last? 

Metal signs can last quite a while, depending on the design and finish. Uncoated signs will have a shorter lifespan of around three years, but metal signs with a protective coating can last as long as 10 years. Some metal sign designs can last for decades, depending on the maintenance they receive and the elements they’re exposed to. 

How many types of metal signs are available to me? 

There is no limit when it comes to the types of metal signs available. Custom metal signs allow you to choose the size, shape, and design, as well as the materials used and the mounting option used to install the sign. SSK Signs would be happy to help you create the right metal sign for your needs. 

How much do metal signs cost? 

The cost of your metal sign will depend on the size you need and the material you choose. For example, stainless steel costs more per square foot than aluminum does, so your stainless-steel sign will come in at a higher cost. However, great metal signs can be designed at almost any budget, so please reach out to us to learn more about your options. 

Which metal is most reflective? 

While silver is generally the most reflective metal, it’s not often used to create signs. Aluminum comes in right behind silver in terms of reflective capabilities and is a great material to choose when creating metal signs. Aluminum can reflect about 90 percent of light, which is a strong enough result for those looking for reflective signs. 

Are metal signs durable? 

Yes, metal signs are very durable. They won't shatter or crack and can be created to a certain thickness to avoid bending. When properly designed and with the right metal type used, metal signs can withstand outdoor elements and general wear and tear very well. Their versatility allows them to offer durability paired with a professional look. 

What type of aluminum is used for metal signs? 

The three most common types of aluminum used for metal signs are standard aluminum, brushed aluminum, and reflective aluminum. All are durable material choices and the one used for your sign will depend on your design and the results you are looking to achieve. In some cases, you may choose to use more than one type of aluminum in your sign design.

How thick should metal signs be? 

Often the thickness of a metal sign will come down to where it will be installed and what the sign is being used for. For example, a metal sign that is close to heavy machinery or used to indicate a hazard may be created using thicker metal, while a parking sign may only require a thin metal to be effective.
