Increase Your Business’s Visual Appeal With Dimensional Signs
Dimensional signs, sometimes known as dimensional letter signs, 3D signs, or raised letter signs, are a type of three-dimensional signage. Individual shapes are constructed from a variety of materials like metal or plastic and then mounted onto a surface like the front of your store.
They’re one of the best ways to attract foot and vehicle traffic to your business; they also make it easy for returning customers to find you. There are almost endless variations available for dimensional signage; we can create a dimensional signage solution that’s fully customized to meet your business needs.
Types Of Dimensional Signs Available Through SpeedPro
3D Lettering
3D lettering is one of the most common types of dimensional signage. These are individual letters or numbers that are constructed from a variety of materials and then mounted together to form words, addresses, and more. They’re great for any business—spell out your business name, your slogan, or just about anything else, and mount the signs to the front of your business.
Business Signage
Dimensional business signs, also called dimensional logo signs, are simply 3D renderings of your company’s logo. They’re frequently used in tandem with 3D lettering to send a strong message about your brand and stand out from the competition.
Wayfinding Signs
Wayfinding signs help customers find their way around; for large buildings like campuses, airports, and malls, dimensional wayfinding signs can help customers navigate to important places more easily.
Illuminated Dimensional Signs

Why Choose Dimensional Signage?
Adds Depth
A dimensional sign creates a contrast between the sign and whatever it’s mounted to. This makes dimensional signs easier to see from a distance. There’s also a professional look to the depth these signs offer, allowing you to showcase your brand in a bold, noticeable way.
Reinforces Branding
Your company’s name and logo shouldn’t be hiding away. Dimensional signs stand out, telling new and returning customers exactly what your business is, where you are, and even what they can expect when they walk in your front doors. Add lighting to your dimensional signs, and you’ll stand out even more.
Versatile And Customizable
The design and manufacturing process to create dimensional signs is highly customizable because each element is manufactured individually. This means that you can use a mix of different materials and styles for every element. Though we recommend using only one style throughout for brand consistency, dimensional signs are highly versatile. You can use any combination of materials, lighting, colours, fonts, shapes, and more to create a unique sign to advertise your business.

Frequently Asked Questions
A variety of different materials can be used for dimensional signs, including metal, plastic, wood, glass, and more. Combinations of materials are often used, too—lighting can be incorporated behind transparent plastic panels in a variety of colours. The materials you’ll use depend on your brand and the purpose of the signage.
Dimensional signs can often be moved after installation, but the ease of moving and reinstalling your sign will depend on a number of factors, including the material used and the mounting method. Adhesive-mounted signs are usually the trickiest to move, while bracket-mounted signs are the simplest.
Moving a dimensional sign involves reinstalling it on a new surface; the new surface should be strong enough to support the weight of your dimensional sign. You may also need new mounting hardware, depending on how the sign was originally mounted.
The durability of dimensional signs depends heavily on the types of material that were used in the sign and how regularly maintenance is performed. Typically, signs made of metal, plastic, or wood will last for 5-10 years outdoors, and slightly longer indoors.
Certain elements of your dimensional sign may need regular maintenance; lights, for example, can burn out and need to be replaced. Talk to us about the maintenance we recommend for your sign. More often than not, maintenance is fairly straightforward.
Yes. Dimensional signs are often both complicated and heavy. Without professional installation, you may end up with improper spacing or misaligned letters. Worse yet, there are liability concerns; each individual element can be fairly heavy, and if they’re not properly fastened, they risk falling onto the ground below.
The team at SpeedPro Oshawa will handle installation on your behalf, so there’s no need to worry—your sign will be picture-perfect.
For dimensional signs used outdoors, the answer is yes. Permits are required to install almost any outdoor sign for your company, and dimensional signs are no exception.
There are dimensional signs that are used indoors; for these signs, you might not need a permit. Talk to our team and we’ll help you establish whether or not permits are needed for your signs.
