Projecting Signs Built for Visibility & Brand Impact
Projecting signs — also known as blade signs — extend outward from your building, making them highly visible to passing pedestrian and vehicle traffic. They are ideal for:
- Retail storefronts
- Restaurant locations
- Downtown businesses
- Multi-tenant commercial properties
- Shopping districts
- Medical and office buildings
These signs provide visibility from side angles that traditional wall signage may not capture.
Burns Custom Signs works exclusively with commercial clients. We do not provide residential signage or vehicle wraps. Exterior installation and service are our core specialties, and every projecting sign is installed with long-term durability and safety in mind.
Trusted by National Brands & Retail Programs
We maintain working relationships with national sign manufacturers and retail programs that depend on reliable local execution. Our team has supported projects for brands including Hilton, CVS, Burlington, Ruby Tuesday, and regional restaurant chains.
National programs rely on us because:
- We follow brand specifications precisely
- We meet strict installation timelines
- We represent their brand professionally on-site
- We communicate directly and clearly
- We protect signage standards and property appearance
When we install or service a projecting sign, we understand we are protecting your brand reputation and storefront presence.
Illuminated & LED Projecting Signs
Modern projecting signs often incorporate LED illumination to maintain strong nighttime visibility.
We provide:
- Illuminated blade sign installation
- LED retrofits and lighting service
- Electrical troubleshooting
- Driver and power supply replacement
- Structural mounting and reinforcement
- Ongoing service and maintenance
We are insured and capable of performing electrical work within 8–10 feet of the sign structure. For larger electrical scopes, we coordinate with a licensed electrician partner to ensure safe, code-compliant completion.
Professional Installation with Direct Owner Oversight
Projecting signs require precise structural mounting and secure attachment to the building façade. Improper installation can create safety risks and damage property.
When you contact Burns Custom Signs, you speak directly with ownership — not a project coordinator or call center.
Both owners are actively involved in installation and service work. That hands-on involvement ensures:
- Accurate site evaluations
- Proper structural assessment
- Clear project communication
- Professional job-site conduct
- Reliable scheduling
- Quality workmanship
We are not the largest sign company in the region. We focus on quality over volume and are known for reliability, accountability, and protecting our clients’ reputations.
