Suite signs for office building with stand-off mounts

In office buildings that house multiple businesses, tenants need to have their offices branded with their name and/or logo. We create custom office door signs, from cut vinyl lettering and logos to suite signs Spokane and modular signs. The experienced staff at Signs for Success can also brainstorm with the landlord or building owner to come up with an affordable but beautiful suite/room identifier system.

This photo is of an architectural sign fabricated in three layers. The suite sign has a brushed gold DiBond backer, topped with a 1/8” thick black PVC sign with brushed gold foil lettering. A piece of clear acrylic on top of both layers protects the letters and gives the piece a sleek, finished look. The sign was mounted to the wall with stand-off mounts to add dimension. Nikki Carroll from Vandervert Developments is very pleased with the final look and appreciates that it is easy to install and change out.

The gold foil lettering continues onto the glass door. The logo, name and phone number in the same cut vinyl gives the office front a cohesive look. This particular suite & foiled vinyl door is for Willie & Ingrid Maddox from Prominence Financial Group LLC at the Northpointe Center on North Nevada and Holland. We can cut vinyl in many different types and colors for windows, walls, custom suite signs and more, to really promote a professional and put-together image.

If there are given specifications for suite signs, including ADA signs, we can outfit an entire building with matching restroom, stairs, elevator, and mechanical room signs. These can all be made to match, and in custom sizes to fit the need of the client. If the tenant, building owner, or landlord would like to be able to print their own images for each room, check out Vista Sign Systems. These have a clear, tamper-resistant covers that come off easily with a provided tool to easily change the tenant or rebrand when logos or colors change.

Signs for Success is a locally owned family business in Spokane, and we strive for excellent customer service, perfect color, and quick turnaround on every project. Get quality service and a quick turnaround on suite signs Spokane; contact us for a free quote today!

Oral Surgery Plus clear acrylic sign with polished stand offs

First impressions are everything when a new customer walks into an office building. Having clear and coordinating office signs adds to the professionalism of a business. Outfit an entire office building with coordinating office signs, door signs, reception signage, changeable directory signs and more!

Last year, we did a large acrylic wall sign for Oral Surgery Plus. They initially wanted a glass sign, but it was going to be too heavy for the size they wanted. We suggested acrylic instead. It’s not only lighter, but also more durable than glass. As soon as their new location was secured, they called us for more custom office signs. This time, they went all out, not only ordering an acrylic wall sign, but also door decals, suite signs, and a directory sign. But that wasn’t all.

Custom Office Signs

The three largest installments for their newest location were dimensional letters, a logo sign and a directory sign. A six-foot stretch of half inch thick acrylic dimensional letters with standoff mounts packs the impact right at the entrance. The large brushed aluminum and colored acrylic logo sign was installed in the reception area. Finally, a Vista directory sign shows which doctors are working, and names can be easily changed out each day. The smaller, but no less important, office signs included door decals and suite signs.

These high-end touches really make their oral surgery office stand out, building their professional image and winning patients’ trust and confidence.

Each office is different, and layout plays a big factor in what types of signs are needed. From suite signs to directional signs, we can come up with a design that coordinates the entire project. “It was one of those projects where we went in and measured all the walls, then came up with concepts and designs,” Signs for Success designer Will Oakley explained. Our experienced design team can work with existing logo and artwork, or help you come up with a new logo concept. Wherever you might be in your advertising, Signs for Success can help you develop your brand image and recommend the best signs and materials for your individual needs. Contact us for a free quote!

Adding seasonal snowflakes cut from temporary vinyl was a cool message from Global Credit Union to Downtown Spokane pedestrians, window decals spokane, clear static clings, holiday window stickers

Create Custom Holiday Window Stickers

October 9, 2015/in decals stickers labels, Window Graphics, Windows, Walls and Floors/by John Bogensberger

Global Credit Union seasonal snowflake vinyl

Global Credit Union in Spokane had greeting cards for their clients and other holiday decorations ready for the winter season, but bare front windows begged for some type of seasonal signage. Mellie Price of GCU called Signs for Success on a Wednesday to see if we could print and install custom snowflake holiday window stickers for their downtown location by Friday.

“She sent over their Christmas card and I took the snowflake and message graphics from there, blew them up and made as many snowflakes (and 2 message panels) that would fit in their budget,” Signs for Success designer Vanessa Bogensberger explained. She sent the quote to Mellie the same day and got approval Thursday morning to move forward. “My great production crew had them cut, weeded, and taped, ready to apply by Thursday afternoon,” Vanessa said.

Our designers keep the customer’s budget, as well as the application, in mind when suggesting the type of material to use. We can even tailor an order to get as much as possible out of a certain size or pre-cut sheet of material.

“We cut out these white snowflakes on 3M – IJ3555 vinyl with temporary adhesive,” Vanessa explained. “At first, Mellie asked for translucent type vinyl, which would be etch mark vinyl (looks like sandblasted glass), but because etch mark vinyl is so much more expensive and has a permanent adhesive, we determined that the IJ3555 white changeable vinyl would be a better option, since they can remove it easily after the holidays.”

Changeable vinyl is ideal for the holidays or temporary advertising for special events or seasons. It is easily removable without leaving any residue behind. Changeable vinyl is what River Park Square used for floor graphics at the Spokane International Airport during the holidays, and it was perfect for Global Credit Union’s holiday window stickers as well.

Our large production facility allows us to design, print and install everything in-house. Get quality service and a quick turnaround on holiday window stickers; contact us for a free quote today!

Custom Law Office Signs give a Professional Impression

PLMS Metal laminate logo

Phillabaum, Ledlin, Matthews & Sheldon PLLC had us brand their office with several custom law office signs. Their branding begins outside with a large monument sign, and continues inside with stand-off dimensional lettering and cut vinyl. Each aspect of this project conveys a complete and professional look for these talented attorneys.

The first sign clients will see is the large monument sign outside the office building. We adhered cut vinyl to Lexan (plexiglass) which was then mounted to an existing monument. We often print directly to Lexan material using our “triple strike” technique for full color graphics that look good in full sunlight during the day or low light at night. For this project however, the client was looking for a simple, clean-lines look in a single color, so we opted for translucent gold vinyl.

Window Lettering for Law Office

We used high-performance cut vinyl in a gold metallic on the exterior door that matches the monument sign. Next, we installed Etchmark Dusted Crystal Vinyl to an interior window. This vinyl gives a unique finish that looks like sandblasted glass.

Finally, Gemini Dimensional Signage makes a statement on an interior wall. Dimensional letters and logos come in several fonts and finishes. We can even have custom logo shapes created. The materials range from sturdy plastics to heavy metals in a variety of colors and finishes. For this law office, we used brushed brass metal laminate on ¼” black acrylic. The pieces are mounted with studs to stand off the wall, which creates a nice shadow.

“The finished product looks great. We have had numerous comments on the brass lettering,” Brian Sheldon said. “Signs for Success was easy to work with, [and] Vanessa was always available when I called.” Signs for Success offers custom signage to promote a professional image.

Spokane on the Rocks window wrap

Window graphics are an integral part of any retail advertising campaign. They give your retail location a unique look that will be recognizable to your customers. When coupled with other advertising strategies such as rigid signs, banners, and/or vehicle graphics, the result is a dramatic increase in brand recognition and consumer interest. Window graphics include window wraps, window decals, and cut vinyl lettering.

Window Wraps

Northwest Bedding in Spokane uses a full window wrap as an extension of their branding. The window wrap works double duty – showing the store name all around the outside of the building so customers can tell who they are from any direction, and it also acts as a privacy barrier. Our window wraps are printed on high-performance vinyl and laminated to withstand UV rays and normal wear and tear for 5-7 years.

Window Decals Spokane

If a full wrap isn’t what you’re looking for, smaller window decals Spokane or window clings can also be custom designed for your business. Static Clings and Changeable Vinyl Decals are great for temporary signage and promotions. Global Credit Union in Spokane used changeable vinyl window decals to show their holiday spirit during the winter months. As a bonus, extras can be given away as promotional items. Self-adhesive vinyl materials are better for long-term signage since adhesive is permanent. Graphics can be printed on clear or white vinyl. To achieve an opaque image on a clear vinyl, we print white ink first, then the color on top of that.

Cut Vinyl Lettering

Cut vinyl lettering is another option for glass windows and doors. Many businesses use cut lettering for store hours. Another useful application is a cut logo or company name. A variety of colors are available for cut lettering. For a high-end look, go with dusted crystal vinyl – it gives graphics an etched-glass look.

Whether you’re looking for a sign to cover an entire window, or a custom-cut logo, our experienced design team can help you come up with the best material and design to fit your goals and budget. Contact us for a free quote on custom window decals Spokane! See More Windows!

Vinyl Wall Wraps and 9 Other Nifty Ways to Use Vinyl

May 19, 2015/in Box Trucks, Cars SUVs, decals stickers labels, Floor Graphics, Pickups, Random Other Stuff, Trailers, Vans, Vehicles, Window Graphics, Windows, Walls and Floors/by John Bogensberger

Vinyl Wall Wrap in downtown Spokane restaurant

Self Adhesive Vinyl (SAV) is an excellent medium that can be used to get your message on virtually any surface. It can be used to create dry erase boards, vehicle wraps, floor graphics, and more. Starting with vinyl wall wraps, here are 10 modern vinyl applications, the type of vinyl we recommend, and why:

Whitworth brick wall wrap

Brick Wall Wrap- We use 8624 Textured Vinyl with laminate to apply to brick or cinder blocks. This vinyl is perfect for rough textures and porous surfaces. The finished product looks like it’s painted on the surface. Textured vinyl has a releasable adhesive, making removal is easy with no adhesive residue left behind. This is a truly amazing graphics film.
Backlit Sign Graphics- Use Translucent Vinyl for backlit signs. It adheres to clear Lexan, acrylic or a similar surface and lets light through, illuminating the printed graphics. Translucent vinyl is also available in spot colors.
Reflective Signs- Use Reflective Vinyl for safety signs, emergency vehicles, or anywhere else signage needs to be illuminated in low light. Most projects require Engineer Grade Reflective Vinyl, but we also have different levels of Diamond Grade reflective vinyl available.
Spokane Airport PT Changeable vinyl wall wrap

Reusable Fabric Stickers- Use PT Changeable Vinyl, a washable vinyl fabric. PT Changeable vinyl can be re-adhered to any flat surface again and again. We find it’s especially useful in retail stores where products and layout change frequently. To wash these fabric decals, use isopropyl alcohol and rub clean.
Decals for Auto Glass- Use Perforated Window Film with laminate to get large graphics on car windows without affecting visibility. Perforated Window Film, just like it sounds, has tiny holes cut out of the vinyl. Even though the image is really only half there, it is easily viewable from the outside, and from the inside, the driver and passengers can see right through the vinyl. There are different perforated window films to choose from with varying degrees of transparency.
Temporary Decals- Use intermediate vinyl. There are several intermediate, or calendared, vinyl films to choose from. They are called calendared because they are rolled and flattened into shape. Intermediate vinyl tends to go back to its natural shape after 1-3 years, meaning you will begin to see curling up at the edges and even cracks through the middle as the material shrinks. It also tends to be a more aggressive vinyl, which can be difficult to work with, but that inconvenience is off-set by the cheaper price. Intermediate vinyl is perfect for temporary decals, including truck numbers that need to be updated frequently.
Away with Words full design & wrap on car

Vehicle Wrap- Use 3M Control Tac Vinyl or Avery Supreme Wrapping Film. These are both high performance vinyl films specifically designed for vehicle wraps and other long term wrap projects. These films fall under the category of “cast vinyl,” which is conformable and does not shrink over time. It is guaranteed to last 5-7 years, is outdoor-durable, and best of all, the releasable adhesive won’t leave any goo when it’s time to remove the vehicle wrap.
Custom Dry Erase Board- Use Dry Erase Vinyl. It’s a clear vinyl that can be applied over a printed image, giving it dry erasability. For a really cool effect, apply dry erase vinyl to an entire wall or custom printed wallpaper to make a giant custom dry erase board.
Window Decals- Use Clear Vinyl with a layer of white ink beneath the color to give the image translucence and not transparency. This will help the color really pop and give your custom decals a professional look.
Blacktop Wrap–Use 6121 Street Vinyl for special use on blacktop or concrete. This is great for temporary outdoor floor graphics or sidewalk wraps. This vinyl is not releasable or conformable.

As you can see, we stock vinyl for every occasion. We strive for excellent customer service, which includes coming up with unique solutions to suit any sign project, timeline and budget.

Garage Door Wraps – Tank

Custom garage door wrap featuring a tank

Garage Door Wraps add dimension to your building

Doors make a great advertising wrap surface. Business entrances, elevator doors, and even garage doors maximize your marketing budget by promoting your business in places you already own and customers frequent.

When it comes to getting the most out of your advertising dollar, we always recommend using every available space to promote your business and services, from vehicles to walls, floors, and/or entire buildings you have access to. At Signs for Success, we’ve utilized large signs, custom window shades, vehicle wraps and fence slat signage, but we didn’t stop there. We decided to take our own advice and makeover our 12’ x 12’ garage door with custom garage door wraps.

The concept for the garage door wraps wrap design started with the idea of creating a trick of the eye. Signs for Success owner John Bogensberger envisioned an image of the garage with an unusual object inside so that at a glance, it looked like we were actually housing a train, aircraft, or whatever strange vehicle we could come up with.

Signs for Success designer Will Oakley began the design with a train engine, given the area’s rail yard history. However, the steam from the engine couldn’t be manipulated easily to look like it was confined to the inside of the garage. Next, he superimposed a plane, but the wingspan was too large, and even folding up the wings (similar to how airplanes are stored and moved around on an aircraft carrier) didn’t look quite right. A fire truck didn’t seem interesting enough. Finally, Will tried a military tank. It was unusual yet realistic and had just the effect John was going for.

This tank design for garage door wraps was printed on 3M IJ35c10 Intermediate Conformable Vinyl and was installed in one afternoon. By starting with a photo of the room (in this case the inside of our empty garage), then superimposing the foreign object, we achieved unique garage door wraps that serves as an example of our large format printing capabilities as well as a fun conversation starter.
