PVC letters that look like cast metal

Do you need an eye-catching logo for your office wall? Brushed metal letters always look great. We also offer metal letters with a polished or satin finish. Polished letters have a mirror-like reflective property. However, polished aluminum, steel, or bronze will not hold up well outdoors. After a few years, the polish could begin to fade. For outdoor installations, we recommend cast metal letters with a satin or brushed finish. They look better for many years in harsher conditions, because the finish matches the level of climate exposure.

Faux metal letters with a brushed finish

Faux metal letters cost less

These brushed metal letters have PVC returns, and we spray the returns with silver Sherwin-Williams paint. The silver returns make the letters look like solid plate metal. We call these faux metal letters. To the untrained eye, they look like the real thing, but they cost less.

We use a paper pounce pattern to install our dimensional letters accurately every time. First, we place the pattern on the wall, then we measure it and check that it is level. Once the letters are on the wall, we cannot move them, so we avoid mistakes during this phase of the job. Then we place the letters accurately over the pattern by hand. Finally, we remove the pattern carefully once all of the letters are in place.

These dimensional letters look like solid cast metal. We installed them at the offices of Stravitz Law Firm and Counsel Title in Lanham, Maryland. In addition, Designs & Signs manufactures dimensional letters right here in Edgewater, Maryland.
