3 Types of Custom
Materials
01
ACM Metal
Thicker, Stronger & Cheaper

Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) Metal is a new, popular type of metal with good stability, light weight, and a sleek look.

ACM Metal is created with a three-layer sandwich panel consisting of two pre-painted .015mm aluminum sheets bonded to a black polyethylene (PE) core, giving it a total thickness of 0.125 inches. These layers make ACM Metal stronger than standard aluminum and ensure it remains flat after installation, even in extreme temperatures.

The best part? ACM Metal comes at a great price point when compared to aluminum.

02
Aluminum
Solid Metal, Build to Last.

Our Premium Aluminum is made with real metal and has a solid 0.040 thickness. 

With superior corrosion resistance, your aluminum signs are waterproof and rustproof, so you know they will last for years to come, no maintenance required. Aluminum also offers strength and malleability, making it much less likely to bend and easier to transport. 

Aluminum is fully recyclable, so you can feel good knowing your purchase is helping to protect the environment.

Options
2-Sided

With the 2-Sided option, designs will be printed on both sides of the strong materials with a build in block out feature to ensure durability and full opacity blocking the design from seeing through from other side.

For 2 sided banners, we use 18 oz heavy weighted vinyl. 

Keep in mind: If the design contains an arrow element, be aware the front and back must have different files with the arrow flipped to show opposite arrows in each file. 

Custom Shape

Your sign can be in any shape you can imagine!

Try our New Custom Shape Tool in Design Studio, you can create a unique shape contour with your logo shape within minutes! 

If you prefer to set up the shape line in Adobe Creative Suite, please follow our Design Guidelines, Our Design Studio will be able to display your cut lines instantly:

  • Format should be vector based PDF.
  • All cut lines should be 1pt (.0156”) strokes with the Spot Color named of “SHAPECUT”. 
Grommets
Grommets are the most common way to display a banner. One can used with zip ties, ropes, & bungee cords. Our silver nickel grommets are in each corner and every 2-3 feet along the top and bottom edges. The placement distributes the weight of the banner evenly and keeps it from sagging. The size #2 grommets have inner diameter of 0.5 inch, and the outer of 0.75 inch.  To avoid any text or images from being punched off, best practice is to keep the design away from 1 inch edges. 
Grommets: Top Corners

The Grommets option places #2 silver nickel grommets in the top corners of the sign. 

Tip: To avoid being cut off, please design away from the 1 inch of outer edges. 

Reflective

Reflective option is produced an engineer-grade 3M vinyl film with 7 mil thickness. When light hits the material, it reflects, drawing attention to your sign. Great for advertising at night. The most important thing to know is that the entire white film we print on is coated with reflective elements. That means that as more ink is printed on your piece, it becomes less reflective. 

Tip: Light colors typically work best. You’ll want to stay away from full-image backgrounds and lots of dark tones. White space is your friend and will ensure your final piece is as reflective as possible.

Rounded Corners

Improve Longevity: For Magnetic Signs, Round corners play a crucial role in extending the lifespan of your magnetic signs so it Won't Fly Away.

By Minimizing the Risk of  peeling corners and air gaps between the magnet and your vehicle, , they ensure a secured Strong hold onto the truck. 

Safe & Convenient Storage: The smooth edges reduce the risk of injury and minimize damage if accidentally dropped, making them suitable for rigid materials like metal, clear acrylic, or 3mm PVC.

Elegant Design:  This subtle design choice enhances professionalism while maintaining aesthetic appeal.

Rounded Corner Radius: 1/2 inch

Shape Die-Cut

Pick from 8 different Standard Shapes, say good bye to the ordinary rectangle signs! 

It will transform the entire shape of your final product to an eye catching shape.

 

 

Understanding Construction Jobsite Signs

What Are Construction Jobsite Signs?

A construction jobsite sign is a large rigid panel, mounted on posts at the entrance to an active construction site. It identifies the project and the companies building it, and in most jurisdictions it carries the permit number and contractor license number required by code. The same product goes by a dozen names depending on who you ask. If you have heard any of these, you are looking for the same thing:

  • Jobsite sign or job site sign
  • Construction site sign
  • Project sign or project identification sign
  • Permit sign
  • GC sign or general contractor sign
  • Development sign
  • 4x8 site sign
  • Construction billboard

Architects and owners tend to say project sign. Superintendents say jobsite sign. Permit offices say project identification sign. City ordinances sometimes call it a construction identification sign. They all describe a horizontal panel with the project name, the general contractor, the architect, the owner, and the permit information.

What size is a construction jobsite sign?

The two standard sizes are 48"×72" (4 ft × 6 ft) and 48"×96" (4 ft × 8 ft). 4×6 covers most site entrances and interior roads. Choose 4×8 for street frontage, faster traffic, or when the panel needs to carry a rendering alongside the permit block. Custom sizes are available when a permit specifies dimensions.
Construction Sign File Preparation

Design Guidelines

Have a design file ready for print? We recommend that you review the following guidelines before placing your order.
Total File Size With Bleed (H x W):
Finished Product Size (H x W):
Understanding File Setup
Bleed Area Add 0.125in.
Extend your background to fill the full "bleed area." This will make sure you do not end up with white edges when your product is cut.
Finished Project Size What you selected on this page
This is where we aim to cut your final product size.
Safe Zone Inset 0.125in.
Keep all of the important elements of your design-text, logo, icons-inside this area. It's okay for backgrounds and images to run all the way to the bleed area.
What type of files will you accept?
We recommend vector-based .PDF design files. Most major design applications can generate a print-ready .PDF by using the Save As feature and selecting “Adobe PDF.” If you are unable to obtain a .PDF file for your design, the best are those in .EPS or .AI (CS3 or higher) format with all text converted to outlines.
Recommended file types:
Vector-based .PDF, .PS, .PSD, or .EPS. Vector-based Adobe Illustrator .AI
Other accepted file types:
.PNG, .TIF, . BMP, .GIF, or .JPG

Construction Sign FAQs

Why do large construction jobsite signs ship by LTL freight instead of FedEx or UPS?

LTL stands for "less-than-truckload" — freight shipping for items that need a truck but not a full trailer. Large construction jobsite signs ship this way because FedEx and UPS are parcel carriers, built for boxes one person can lift.

A 48x96 (4x8) or 48x72 (4x6) ACM or aluminum sign is too large for parcel service. It would be folded, creased, or damaged in transit. Your jobsite sign ships flat on a pallet, banded and protected, so it arrives as flat and clean as it left our facility — the only way to move a panel this size and guarantee it stays true.

What happens when my jobsite sign ships via LTL freight?

The process begins at checkout. On the shipping page, enter the name, phone number, and email of whoever will receive the sign — if you won't be on site yourself, that's your superintendent or project manager.

Once your sign is printed and palletized, it's picked up from our departure hub. At that point we send the freight PRO number — your tracking number — along with the carrier's name, to both you and your site contact. Either of you can follow the shipment on the carrier's site through every transfer.

When the pallet reaches the destination terminal nearest your project, that terminal's dispatch calls your site contact directly to confirm a delivery window, so you know when the truck is coming. Your site contact is in the loop from the start — nothing to forward, nobody to chase.

Most jobsites have no loading dock, and that's expected. The driver delivers to your parking lot, staging area, or any accessible point on site. Cut the banding, lift the sign clear of the pallet, and you're set — no forklift, no dock, no special equipment.
