Customization & Products

We specialize in selling blank signs and structural sign blanks ready for custom graphics. We do not provide graphic printing or vinyl application services directly.

However, our products are engineered for easy customization, you can easily take your blank sign to a local sign shop or graphics installer to apply custom vinyl lettering, decals, or painted branding.

Yes! We offer custom fabrication, including bespoke sizes, shapes, and structural modifications tailored to your project requirements. Contact our support team to request a quote or discuss custom specs.

If your illuminated sign fails to light up or is flickering upon installation, please check the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Verify Power Supply & Wiring: Ensure the power supply (LED driver/transformer) is receiving main power and that all low-voltage connections between the power supply and the sign match correct polarity (+ to +, – to -).
  1. Check the Circuit Breaker: Confirm the dedicated circuit or outlet powering the transformer is active.
  1. Inspect Connections: Ensure no wires were pinched, loose, or disconnected during transit or mounting.

Note: All illuminated signage components must be installed by a qualified electrician or sign technician in accordance with local electrical codes.

If the connections are secure and the sign still does not illuminate, please contact our support team within your 2-Year Warranty period with your order number, photos/videos of the wiring setup, and a description of the issue so we can assist with a replacement power unit or component.
