When customers approach a shopping center, medical office, residential community, or commercial property, one of the first things they often notice is the property’s main sign.
Monument and pylon signs can serve as both branding tools and wayfinding solutions, helping businesses make a strong impression while making their locations easier to find.
What Is a Monument Sign?
A monument sign is a freestanding sign typically installed close to the ground. It can be used at business entrances, community entryways, shopping centers, and other properties.
Because monument signs are often positioned near the entrance of a property, they can become an important part of the overall appearance of the location.
What Is a Pylon Sign?
Pylon signs are taller freestanding signs designed to provide visibility from greater distances.
They can be particularly useful for shopping centers, multi-tenant properties, retail developments, and medical office locations where several businesses need to be identified from the road.
More Than Just a Business Name
A good monument or pylon sign does more than display a name.
It can help:
- Identify your property
- Improve visibility from nearby roads
- Direct customers and visitors
- Showcase multiple tenants
- Reinforce your brand
- Create a professional entrance
- Make your location easier to remember
For multi-tenant properties, signage can also provide an organized way to display several businesses in one location.
Design Matters
The most effective signs combine visibility with good design.
Factors such as size, placement, materials, colors, lighting, lettering, and viewing distance should all be considered during the design process.
A sign that looks attractive up close may not be effective if drivers cannot read it from the road. Professional planning helps ensure the final product works for its intended environment.
