Projecting Blade Signs for Restaurants

Signdealz worked with Pasta Vino to develop a blade sign that would show off their unique brand. Blade signs work well in dense pedestrian districts where there are a lot of people walking by. The signs projecting from the building make it easy to see. Most projecting blade signs need to be at least 8' high over the sidewalk or patio area.

Code Issues for Blade Signs

If you plan on having a large blade sign built it will need to be engineered. Proper engineering is very important for various reasons. Ensuring the blade sign is properly attached to the building, includes features such as the size of the mounting plates, mounting hardware, and attachment surface. All of these features need to be taken into account to properly design a structurally strong blade sign. Each municipality may have their own regulations regarding wind load, height, and weight. Numerous municipalities may require special revocable permits that remove the cities liability in case of the sign falling down.

How much does a blade sign cost?

There are numerous factors affecting the cost of blade signs. For the restaurant industry, the cost can vary from $1500 for a non illuminated hanging style blade sign, to upwards of $20,000 and up for an illuminated blade sign. Factors affecting the blade sign center around the physical size of the sign. Lighted blade signs cost factors include the type of illumination. This might include bulb and ballast, neon, or LED lighting.
