Custom Wood Signs FAQs

We strongly recommend applying a clear coat or urethane sealer to your sign. This additional protective layer serves multiple purposes: it enhances the longevity of your sign by shielding it from harsh weather conditions, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear. Additionally, a clear coat or urethane sealer can intensify the colors and gloss of your sign, making it look more vibrant and professional. This is especially important for outdoor signs that are exposed to the elements. By investing in a clear coat or urethane sealer, you ensure that your sign maintains its visual appeal and structural integrity for a longer period, ultimately providing better value for your investment.

Hanging your new sign from Wood Cottage Signs is a straightforward process that ensures your place of business is clearly marked and easily recognizable. Follow these steps for a professional installation: 1. Choose the Right Location: Ensure that the chosen spot for your sign is visible to foot and vehicle traffic. Verify that it complies with local zoning or signage regulations. 2. Prepare the Wall: Clean the surface where the sign will be installed. Make sure it is dry and free of any debris or obstacles that could hinder the installation. 3. Measure and Mark: Measure the sign and mark the exact spots for mounting. Ensure that the sign will be level by using a spirit level. 4. Drill Holes: Use a drill to create holes in the marked spots. The size of the drill bit should match the size of the mounting hardware provided with your sign. 5. Install Anchors: Insert wall anchors into the drilled holes if your sign requires them. Wall anchors help to secure the screws more firmly to the wall. 6. Mount the Sign: Align the sign with the drilled holes. Depending on the type of sign, you may need to use screws, bolts, or other mounting hardware to secure it in place. 7. Double-Check: Ensure the sign is securely mounted and level. It should be firm and not wobbly when touched. 8. Cleanup: Clean up any dust or debris created during the installation process. For professional installation, you may also consider hiring a licensed contractor who has experience with sign mounting. This can guarantee the best results and ensure compliance with any specific local regulations.
